Hiking

In the beautiful landscape this can be really fun.

 

The Black Forest offers many hiking trails that could not be more different. Some are supraregional and cross the low mountain range, others are circular trails within the Black Forest. Worth mentioning are especially the so-called theme trails, on which knowledge is imparted in several stations. The difficulty levels are also different. There are steep mountain tours, but also gentle trails that you can even visit with a stroller. In addition, there are barefoot routes as well as barrier-free paths.

 

Scenic hiking routes are mainly located around the Feldberg as well as in the Wutach Gorge. But also the three "Höhenwege" ("high-altitude trails"), which all start from Pforzheim, are very popular, but with a length of more than 200 kilometers each they are a challenge. The best known of these is the Westweg. It has its end point in Basel and passes almost all the high mountains of the Black Forest on its 285 kilometers.

 

A tribute to the cuckoo clock is the "U(h)rwaldpfad" at Rohrhardsberg. Here, all kinds of cuckoo clocks are hung up in the warm season, providing nesting sites for wildlife. A clock carrier circuit starts in Triberg and goes via Titisee-Neustadt as well as Villingen-Schwenningen on more than 180 kilometers back to Triberg.

 

Apart from hiking, you can also enjoy many other leisure activities in the Black Forest. There are numerous outdoor pools, great adventure pools, summer toboggan runs and golf courses, so fun for the whole family. Inline skaters get their money's worth as well as hang gliders. And of course you can also go horseback riding.
