About this place

The Black Forest is Germany's most recognizable natural landscape and a strong AroundTrail anchor. Baden-Baden gives it a spa and culture entry point; Feldberg provides the highest summit; Triberg, Titisee, and the scenic railway routes add variety. It is also the northern trailhead for the Westweg long-distance trail and connects naturally to Freiburg, Lake Constance, and the Rhine plain.
