Schwarzwald Hochstrasse

Reviewed By JacquesMonica - Johannesburg

Traveled the entire high road (B500) from Baden-Baden Freudenstadt, and would love to do it again. It is absolutely spectacular. Well-maintained roads and epic scenery is what its all about, with some stunning panoramic views towards the Rhine River and France. We stopped in Mummelsee to get some kirschwasser souvenirs and admire the view. You can also get authentic cuckoo clocks and Schwarzwälder Kirschtorte (Black Forest cake) here, we sat down for the latter in Freudenstadt at the end of our Black Forest journey. There are some popular Michelin-starred restaurants here just off the route in Baiersbronn and surrounds.

Marktplatz

Reviewed By Edelan - Grand Rapids, Michigan

Definitely catered towards tourists, but the square is still quite nice. There are Fountains for the kids to play in on warmer days. There are numerous specialty shops in addition to overpriced and underserved restaurants as well as tourist shops. If you are in the area, it is worth a visit.

Barfusspark

Reviewed By golfchic46 - Windsor, United Kingdom

This is a great place to visit - free to enter, 3 euro to park. It is a trail that you follow through the Black Forest - barefoot! You leave your shoes in a locker (1 euro returnable) and then wander through the forest - in your bare feet. Over gravel, pebbles, water, thick mud and other things that I am not going to tell you about or it will spoil it. Really good fun, envigorating and lovely scenery. Great for all ages

Kloster Allerheiligen

Reviewed By Yair K - Giv'atayim, Israel

First we visited the ruins of the abbey which is an interesting place. Unfortunately, there were some people rehearsing there so we could not visit properly.
We intended to continue to the Waterfalls, going down instead of climbing. But then we decided that it's nicer to see Waterfalls while climbing up so we drove to the parking of the Waterfalls which is few km from the ruins and I believe it was a good decision since we really liked the Waterfalls (and only hiked half of the way to the ruins). Many steps to climb but it's worth the effort.

Alternativer Wolf- Und Barenpark Schwarzwald

Reviewed By gaborinbrussels - Brussels, Belgium

Visited the park with young children and was worth a lot. We saw several bears which were saved from places where they were mistreated or abandoned for being "old". Very nice initiative and a enthousisted team taking care of the bears and wolves helping them to have a better life than before. The whole park is just perfectly organised, not too long to walk around to keep the interest of children. Several information tabs explaining the know-abouts plus a cafeteria and playground.
Worth a visit!
On weekends and holidays (like we did) the parking can become crowded with no spots to park, so come early before others wake up!

Lotharpfad

Reviewed By Bearclyff - Brighton, United Kingdom

This unprepossessing road stop alongside the Schwarzwald Hochstrasse is worth a stop. There is a very well constructed wooden walkway that takes you a little into the woods, with lookout towers to climb and other interesting constructions. You can follow the path all the way and it brings you back to the far end of the car park.

Evangelische Stadtkirche

Reviewed By ADM1959 - Linlithgow, United Kingdom

We all know instinctively that churches are designed and built either on a rectangular or a cross-shaped pattern. Except that this one isn't - it was built with 2 almost identical naves at right angles to each other, with the altar at the intersection point. Somebody thought that there should be separate Seating areas for men and women, and this l-shaped design was the result.
What made our visit much more poignant was to read about the war-time destruction and subsequent re-building and restoration of the church. Worth pausing a moment and offering a few words to whatever deity you choose.

Sankenbachwasserfalle

Reviewed By JP H

just to start off by saying that the point where there place is indicated is wrong. Its a 3 to 4 mile hike (not too easy) to get there. The marked point is just where the trail kind of starts. It came as a surprise to us as we were not prepared, but we went anyway and it was worth the walk!! Awesome experience!!
you have to be fit and willing though for the walk.
Tip: instead of the trail(which is cool), take the road which is direct and not all too hard to walk.
