Adenau / Maikammer (dpa / lrs) - Due to the corona pandemic and the weather conditions, more and more inspections are being carried out in the Rhineland-Palatinate winter excursion destinations.

In the Eifel and Hunsrück they want to "take action against parking offenders and punish non-compliance with the corona rules", the Trier police announced on Friday.

She appealed to snow enthusiasts to hold back this weekend too.

Around the Nürburgring in the Eifel, for example, the Adenau police want to carry out controls and take action against "unauthorized parking on meadows and in forests".

"We ask the guests to visit us again when the times are better," said the police on Friday.

In the Eifel, the access roads to the winter sports areas “Schwarzer Mann” and “Wolfsschlucht” are also closed due to the risk of snow breakages up to and including January 17th, according to a message from the Bitburg-Prüm district administration.

The winter sports center on the Erbeskopf also has to bend to the weather conditions and is currently not accessible for those interested in excursions.

A spokesman for the Bernkastel-Wittlich district administration said the access road L 164 was closed up to and including Monday (January 18) due to the continued risk of snow breaks.

The closure of the access roads K 130 and K 50 will continue until the end of January.

On the Donnersberg, the driveways will be cordoned off on Saturday and Sunday from 9.30 a.m. to 6 p.m. to avoid a rush of visitors.

"We had extreme traffic chaos, as the first snowflakes were on the Donnersberg," said a spokeswoman for the Donnersberg Tourism Association.

On the other hand, there are no far-reaching restrictions on the Kalmit near Maikammer (Südliche Weinstrasse district).

"When parking spaces are full, when there is a traffic jam, we intervene," said a police spokesman for Edenkoben.

Escape routes must absolutely remain free.

The German Weather Service (DWD) expects clouds, fresh snow and permafrost in the mountains over the weekend.

In the night of Sunday it should snow continuously at minus 2 to minus 6 degrees, and there is a "considerable risk of ice" until Sunday.
