Beautiful, unique, varied and still often underestimated - the Palatinate. If you have come to Kaiserslautern to study, you probably don't even know what there is to discover here, practically on your doorstep.

Within less than an hour, you can immerse yourself in the almost untouched Palatinate Forest, enjoy the Tuscany-like wine region around Neustadt, celebrate big festivals or let time stand still for a moment as the fairytale landscape passes by in an old steam train.

Culinary specialties, Palatinate hospitality, German history and breathtaking landscapes: There's so much to discover in the Palatinate bucket list, it would almost be a shame to miss it.

To make it as easy as possible for you to access the treasures of the Palatinate, we have once again put together pictures, directions and tips for each destination. Grab a few friends, use your student ticket and off you go.

Have fun exploring!
