I was contemplating going to Heidelberg from Kaiserslautern since I will be there in July 2016.

Your post convince me that Heidelberg is not to be miss. By the way, beautiful photos.

Great Picture!I lived in Heidelberg 1959-61 as a military dedenpent, and ranged out of the golden ghetto as much and often as I could. The Philosophenweg (and a small tavern below it) were favored haunts with my friends.Worth mentioning that while Heidelberg escaped damage in World War II, it was not immune to war; the Castle was burned by French troops in the 1680s, in the dynastic wars that ranged across large parts of Europe at the time; the event is celebrated(?) each summer by fireworks shows that give the impression that it is burning again.And one note on the Heiliggeistkirche: It’s Lutheran now, but from about 1700 until 1936 it was partitioned down the length of the nave so that it could serve both Protestants and Catholics.

That’s one of the best things about a good hike, you can reward yourself afterwards with plenty of carbs and not feel bad about it!

Ok, now I want to visit Heidelberg. Your things to do in 2 days are right up my alley – hiking followed by beer and pretzels!
