Places worth visiting
A selection to start dreaming and organizing the stay — not an exhaustive list of everything there is to see.
Remarkable location
Freudenstadt
Freudenstadt is known for its vast arcade square, rebuilt with a regularity that surprises the middle of the Black Forest. The city offers a hiking base and a convenient spa stop, with dark forests, panoramic roads and Baiersbronn at short distance.
Remarkable location
Baiersbronn
Baiersbronn gathers hamlets, wooded valleys and famous tables in the heart of the northern Black Forest. Beyond gastronomy, the place speaks to walkers: trails to glacial lakes, tight fir trees, clearings and inns give a very deep experience in the forest relief.
Remarkable location
Gernsbach
Gernsbach clings to the Murg valley, with an old sloping centre, half-timbered houses and trail starts to the wooded heights. Less social than Baden-Baden, the city gives direct access to a Black Forest with river, footbridges and shady paths.
Place
Baden-Baden
Baden-Baden cultivates a thermal elegance made up of baths, parks, classic facades and walks at the foot of the Black Forest. The city is suitable for travellers looking for a rhythm, between culture, well-being and easy departures to nearby wooded roads.
