The Schenkenbrunnen is a spring in the Südliche Weinstrasse district in Rhineland-Palatinate .

Natural allocation

The Schenkenbrunnen belongs to the Palatinate Forest natural area , which is classified as a 3rd order Greater Region in the systematics of the handbook of the natural spatial structure of Germany published by Emil Meynen and Josef Schmithüsen and its subsequent publications . If you look at the internal structure of the natural area , the Schenkenbrunnen belongs to the easternmost part of the Middle Palatinate Forest.

In summary, the natural spatial allocation of the moss fountain follows the following system:

  1. Greater region 1st order: Layer level land on both sides of the Upper Rhine Rift
  2. Greater region 2nd order: Palatinate-Saarland layer level land
  3. Greater region 3rd order: Palatinate Forest
  4. 4th order region (main unit): Middle Palatinate Forest
  5. 5th order region: unknown

Traffic and walking

The L506 from Weyher and the K58 from Burrweiler to the K6 lead to the forester's house Heldenstein through the Modenbachtal up to the forester's house Heldenstein. From Edenkoben , the K 6 leads through the Edenkobener valley ( Triefenbach ), past the Edenkobener hut and Lolosruhe also to the forester's house. From there the “green-yellow” hiking trail (Forsthaus Heldenstein- Benderplatz - Kohlplatz ) leads past the Aspenkopf to the Kesselberg. The “blue-white” hiking trail runs from the Edenkobener hut to Kohlplatz. From the Lolosruhe car park, an unmarked path branches off the “green-white” hiking trail ( European long-distance hiking trail E8 ) to the left in the direction of Benderplatz. There is a rest area with covered seating right at the source. The Schenkenbrunnen can be reached from the Lolosruhe hikers' car park and the forester's house Heldenstein, as well as the Edenkobener valley at the Edenkobener hut (367 m).

Others

The spring has water all year round. A withdrawal is possible without any problems, but the outlet only drips in summer and the water is in the collecting basin. It therefore contains suspended matter.
