Queitersberg

Queitersberg is a mountain peak standing 394 meters high in the northern section of the Palatine Forest. The summit features sandstone formations that shape the surrounding forested landscape.

The mountain lies in an area with archaeological traces of Celtic and Roman settlements hidden beneath the forest soil. These findings show that people have inhabited this forest region since ancient times.

The summit is part of a hiking network maintained by local clubs that connects traditional forest paths with neighboring peaks. This route serves as a popular way for visitors to explore the forested terrain.

The best access is via parking areas near the A6 motorway, located between the Kaiserslautern-East and Enkenbach-Alsenborn exits. From there, marked paths lead directly toward the summit.

The summit marks a natural watershed that divides water flow between the Lauter River and Hochspeyerbach, feeding into different river systems. This geographical role makes the peak an interesting point for understanding local hydrology.
