A great circular walk for lovers of unspoilt nature who can't get enough of the calming effect of the forest and who are hungry for exercise in the fresh air and pure freedom.

Start from the Sarbacher Hotel in Kaltenbronn (Gernsbach). Several large car parks are available, so it's fairly easy to find a space. The car parks are connected by a tarmac footpath. Ideal hike for a family outing. No steep or technical slopes. There is a very long wooden pontoon leading to a well-preserved pond. Pets are allowed along the entire route. The trail is well marked with the option to extend the route.

A beautiful hike to discover the ruins of Ebersteinburg and Hohenbaden castles. Magnificent rocks (Batterfelsen) can also be found along the route. You can visit Hohenbaden Castle, which is well worth a detour, and enjoy a meal in its restaurant. There are also some beautiful viewpoints along the route.

Black Forest route via Wolfschlucht gorge, Lukas Hütte, Ebersteinburg castle, Battert rock faces, Ritteplatte, Baden-Baden's old castle, Sophien Ruhe and Engelskanzel viewpoints offering splendid views of the town.

A lovely hike in the Black Forest without any major difficulties. It takes us along wooded paths past Lake Sankenbachsee, the Sankenbacher Waterfalls, the Glasmännlehütte refuge and a short detour into the town of Baiersbronn.

Do you enjoy the sound of running water, birdsong and a bit of a hike? You can do all that here with the family.

This circuit is best done at the end of May during the rhododendron flowering season. You can also see a series of small waterfalls. The hike is not difficult. It can be very busy on Saturdays and Sundays (especially on the first third)

Are you looking for a short, scenic yet challenging hike less than an hour from Strasbourg? This circular route offers panoramic views of the Alsace plain and, on the other side, the Black Forest mountain range. It partly follows a route marked by the Schwarzwälder Genießerpfade (Black Forest Gourmet Trail), but in the opposite direction, so you’ll come across a few other walkers. It doesn’t follow this route exactly either, taking a few detours to make the walk shorter and offer more panoramic views.

Un circuit facile dans la forêt. Passage le long d'un torrent. Le clou est le lac d'origine glaciaire Wildsee, l'un des plus beau et plus sauvage de la Forêt Noire. Au retour, nous empruntons le sentier en balcon sur la plaine du Rhin et passons devant le monument commémoratif de la tempête "Lothar" de 1999.

A hike in the Black Forest mountains, culminating in the glacial lake of Mummelsee and, on a clear day, a breathtaking view from the summit of Hornisgrinde over the Rhine Valley, Strasbourg and the Vosges mountains.

Hike to the highest peak in the northern Black Forest, the Hornisgrinde (1,164 m), which you climb twice, first from the south and then from the north. Superb panoramic view of the Rhine plain. You pass the TV transmitter with its impressive 206 m high transmission tower. The route then passes through Ochsenstall, from where you reach the Unterstmatt ski resort. You return via another climb up the Hornisgrinde, then cross the peat bogs before passing the Dreifürstenstein.

A short trail (1 km) in the middle of a nature reserve allows you to discover two interesting things: how nature is rebuilding itself after the Lothar storm of 1999 without human intervention and how woodpeckers interact with trees. Several variations of the route are available, including one that allows you to walk along the trail with a pushchair or wheelchair as it is made of wooden planks.Hikers can continue on the Panoramarundweg trail or take other hikes a little further afield (by bus or car) in the Black Forest (including the Allerheiligen waterfalls).

A beautiful circular hike starting at the foot of the Allerheiligen waterfall. Discover the old convent in the village. The route then climbs gradually to the heights above Ottenhöfen and finally loops back to Schliffkopf.

A pleasant short hike along the gorges, which are home to a series of waterfalls. The hike can be done in either direction of the circular route.The direction of the circular loop shown is the ascent of the gorges and waterfalls. The path consists of steps to make the ascent easier. Once you arrive in the hamlet of Allerheiligen, you will find amenities and places to eat.The ruins of an ancient abbey are open to visitors. The return journey is along a forest road.There is a dedicated car park at the start/finish point. Please note that this hike can be very popular and can get quite crowded, both in the car park and along the route.

A hike alternating between forests and sloping pastures in the typical Black Forest landscape, with lovely green valleys and babbling brooks. More accessible all year round from the Dollenberg car park (accessible via the B28 road), this alternative route is slightly longer than the official 13.4 km ‘Wiesensteig’ route recommended by the Bad Peterstal Griesbach Tourist Office.

The ancestral seat of the Prussian royal family and the Princes of Hohenzollern, Hohenzollern Castle is one of the most visited castles in Europe. Perched on a high hill in Swabia, the building, adorned with numerous towers, has a picturesque, medieval appearance when viewed from a distance. The view from Hohenzollern Castle is well worth the detour, though you’ll need to be prepared for a brisk 20-minute walk to finally reach the castle.
