Street

The federal highway 427 runs right through the town . In the immediate vicinity of Reichenbach, but partly already in the district of Schindhard, the state road 489 branches off to Bundenthal-Rumbach, the district road 39 to Erfweiler and the district road 41 to the Bärenbrunnerhof .

rail

The Wieslauterbahn also passes Reichenbach. Along the latter, at the height of Reichenbach, is the Busenberg - Schindhard stop , which actually functioned as an operating point for two neighboring communities of the same name.

The station was also a train station before it was dismantled to a stopping point . The two eponymous communities are a few kilometers away. It got its name because it mainly served them and Erfweiler . Nevertheless, he was unofficially referred to as Reichenbach in the past . In the 1980s he still had a siding.

From the 1930s onwards it also had a signal box that has since been converted into a holiday home. A carpenter also bought the former station building in 1983, which had since been run down. He converted it into a restaurant . In 1998 it received an extension and two years later the outdoor area was changed.

With the biosphere tour and the Pamina cycle path Lautertal , which runs from Hinterweidenthal to Neuburg am Rhein , two cycle paths also lead past the western edge of the village, as does the long-distance hiking path Donnersberg-Donon marked with a red bar . The planetary hiking trail also runs through Reichenbach and extends from Hinterweidenthal to Bruchweiler-Bärenbach. In addition, there is a so-called holiday station on site
