The state road 506 (Ramberg– Weyher ) leads over the top of the pass . Following the pass road to the west, Ramberg is reached after 2 km, to the east Weyher after 10 km.
Near the top of the pass are the Ramberger Waldhaus Drei Buchen , which is looked after by the Ramberg local group of the Palatinate Forest Association , but is leased to an independent restaurateur, and a forest car park.
