Kaiserslautern was transformed for the football World Cup 2006, and it still shows in almost every aspect of public life in the city. Streets have been re-paved, flowers planted, and the train station and stadium have undergone extension. It has been a lot of work for ‘just five football games’ some might argue, but it's certainly a welcome boost for K-Town, as the place is called by the many Americans living and working on the military base nearby.
If you are a visitor to K-Town now, however, you will most certainly profit from all this work because Kaiserslautern has rarely been so lovely.
The Palatine Forest near Kaiserslautern teems with hikers, bikers, motorcyclists and campers. For people who prefer to practice sports themselves rather than watching it, we’ve put together a few ideas in our Palatine Forest feature.
Enjoy Kaiserslauten, and remember to write in to tell of your experiences in town, and your opinion of this guide.
