The Black Forest mountain range is a forested area southwest of Stuttgart. Gently rolling hills, evergreen forests, picturesque villages with half-timbered houses, valleys sleeping in the mid-day sun, hiking trails, the famous Black Forest ham served on a platter and 130 years of tourism experience make the area a great place for a family holiday. Flying into Stuttgart and then hiring a car from Budget Stuttgart Airport is the best option, although it is possible to travel to the region by train and coach. However, upon arrival public transport becomes a little scarce and to fully explore the area, a car is most certainly needed.

In spring, summer and autumn hikers and mountain bikers descend on the Black Forest to honour Philipp Bussemer, reputedly the first “Hiker”, who invented the concept of hiking and hiking trails, when he opened the first official tourist office next to a haberdashery shop at the end of the 19th century. Numerous maps and guided tours are available for the long-distance trails that criss-cross the Black Forest. Visitors can essentially choose from 3 main trails, the Westweg, which leads through the western part of the region, the Mittelweg, which follows trails through the center and the Ostweg, which explores the eastern part of the Black Forest.

There are more than 100 hiking destinations in the Black Forest and seasoned hikers know that sharing the load by hiking and driving to some of them is the best way to see as many of the wonderful villages and sample as many of the Vesperstuben (quaint eateries in the villages) as possible.

Bike crossing, Nordic Walking, horse riding, rowing, ice climbing, jogging, golf, canoeing, quad tours and lots more can be done depending on the season and altitude one prefers. The Black Forest region stretches at altitudes of between 100 and 1,500 meters above sea level over an area of 11,400 square km, leaving plenty of room for tranquil solitude and afternoon snoozes, if the aforementioned sports are too taxing!
