⚑Departure from Triberg im Schwarzwald (Regierungsbezirk Freiburg)
This loop will take you from Triberg (Baden-Württemberg) which, as well as being a major cuckoo factory, is also famous for its waterfall, the highest in Germany. A hike for everyone. The route is in two parts: The long 9 km loop takes you through forests and mountain meadows to discover some magnificent scenery. The shorter 2.3 km loop takes you to the waterfall, which unfortunately is very popular with tourists, so there is a charge for admission (€8).
