Black
Forest, South Germany

The
Black Forest is situated in South West Germany, close to the border
of France and Switzerland, reaching from the banks of the Rhein
with its downs and vineyards to its charmful valleys and gentle
sloped mountains with its characteristic deep pine forests.
The region is of outstanding
beauty, great variety and century long traditions. It offers
a unique combination of sheer relaxation and a wide range of cultural
and outdoor activities.
Worldwide renown
for its hospitality, climatic
health resourts and relaxing spas, the Black Forest is also
known as the lungs of Germany. It is a true
paradise for the gourmet with its great cuisine and famous wines,
a place where you can encounter a delightful local wine or beer
festivals on almost every corner.

The Black Forest
does also offer a wide range of outdoor
activities such as gentle walking and cycling to more energetic
hiking and mountainbiking to name a few. In fact there are over
30000 km of well signposted
walking and biking trails for every level, leading through unspoilt,
deep green stretches of woodland, magnificent landscape and historic
towns.
Black
Forest is a true all year holiday destination. Its mild spring characterised
by the cherry blossom season, is followed by long warm summer, where
one can enjoy an idyllic walk through meadow landscapes or just
relax in the shade of the forest or on one of the many lakes, rivers
or brooks nearby. Autumn shows the region in glorious colours, signalling
the wine and fruit harvest, with winter turning the Black Forest
into a fairytale setting with its romantic snowcovered landscapes
and farmhouses.
