Over the river and through the woods to a Weihnachtsmarkt we go! If you want to experience a different kind of Christmas market located in the center of the Palatinate Forest, you do not want to miss out on the Trippstadt Christmas Market. The woodland scenery was a nice change to the city ones we have been in the past. In the evening, a large number of torches and bonfires create a romantic atmosphere but we headed out early before it got dark.
About 70 booths offer culinary delicacies (like horse meat), Glühwein, Christmas cookies, crafts and much more. Christmas trees and venison for the Christmas roast are available as well – fresh and guaranteed from the Palatinate Forest. The children can enjoy horseback riding and the carousel. They also offer a fire show on Saturday evenings. We enjoyed listening to the brass ensemble while walking around the woods market. They say there is a lack of parking so encourage taking a bus (no. 170) from Kaiserslautern main station but we found PLENTY of parking. We parked on the street but could of parked right next to the market in the large parking lot across the street.
Address: Johanniskreuz 1, 67705 Trippstadt
