German Unity Day
Every year at the beginning of October, usually on German Unity Day, the Car-Free Eis Valley Day of Action ("Aktionstag Autofreies Eistal") attracts numerous visitors to the region. The state road, the Landesstraße 395, which runs through the valley from Grünstadt-Asselheim to Enkenbach, is closed for a whole Sunday to all motor traffice and is reserved exclusively for walkers, usually hikers, cyclists and inline skaters.
