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.
