Black Forest
The Black Forest, or Schwarzwald, is one of Europe’s most scenic mountain regions. Near the borders with France and Switzerland and framed by the Rhine, it offers serene lakes, rolling hills, dense woodlands, and charming villages. A haven for outdoor adventure and cultural richness, it’s a beloved year-round destination.
The Black Forest takes its name from the deep, shadowy canopy created by its dense firs and pines, which blanket the rolling hills and tall mountains of this enchanting corner of southwestern Germany. Long associated with the magical world of the Brothers Grimm, it’s easy to picture fairy-tale characters like Hansel and Gretel or Little Red Riding Hood wandering through its mysterious woodland paths.
To this day, the region is still celebrated for its exquisite wood carving, the timeless craftsmanship of cuckoo clocks, and the creation of musical instruments. And no visit would be complete without tasting the iconic Black Forest Gateau, a rich chocolate cake adorned with cherries and lashings of cream.
Visitors to the Black Forest are treated to breathtaking landscapes, whether driving, hiking, or cycling through this picturesque region. You will also find ski resorts and spa towns where naturally occurring thermal springs attract visitors looking for a health-giving break away from the city. An elegant and genteel base for exploring the area is Baden-Baden, a 19th century spa town famous for its elegant festival hall, casino, upscale hotels and neatly manicured gardens.
