The Hörnchenberg tunnel is part of the BAB 62 Landstuhl - Pirmasens and bypasses Landstuhl. The shell of the tunnel was completed in 1989 and opened to traffic in 1991. It is located in the Landstuhl district and crosses the Hörnchenberg . In 1990 the Lindwurm campaign ran through the tunnel, which at the time had not yet been opened to traffic.

The tunnel consists of two tubes with two lanes each, which are operated in one-way traffic. The design was based on a traffic speed of 80 km / h. The length of the north tube is approx. 512 m, that of the south tube approx. 536 m and a passage height of 4.50 m. The operations center is outside the tunnel at the east portal below the tunnel tubes.

The tunnel has no direct escape routes that lead to the outside via stairwells or galleries. There is a connecting tunnel in the middle of the tunnel.
