Pfälzerwald-Verein
Because not all the mountains and hills of the Palatine Forest can be included in this list, a number of criteria have been used to make the selection. Of prime importance have been their geomorphological (e. g. rock, relief etc.), biological (e. g. flora like forest coverage and contiguity), cultural historic (e. g. castles, former cultic sites), touristic (e. g. observation towers, Palatine Forest Club huts etc.) and infrastructural features (e. g. transport routes, industrial usage etc.).
