Schluchsee Lakeside Trail

Highlight • Trail

It is the largest lake in the Black Forest and one of the cleanest bathing lakes in Germany. Around the lake there are plenty of swimming and refreshments and beautiful paths and trails. A perfect area for great mountain bike tours.

Vesperstube Unterkrummenhof

Highlight • Restaurant

After several visits and the renovation work, we can still recommend the farm: solid food at fair prices. Offers and opening times vary between summer and winter. When the weather is good and there are many hikers, waiting times must be taken into account. Self-service at all tables.

Schluchsee Lake Cycle Path

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

The route runs along the lake. Partly with gravel, but most of the time you drive on asphalt. It is also often used by walkers.

Baden State Brewery Rothaus

Highlight • Monument

The Badische Staatsbrauerei is a highlight for every beer lover. Whether brewery tour, gastronomy, playground or fan article shop. Here everyone gets their money's worth. There is even a whiskey tasting corner.

View of the Schluchsee

Highlight (Segment) • Viewpoint

Even though the hiking trail goes closer to the water (I think it's nicer), the bike path is also highly recommended. Always beautiful views of the lake, hardly any incline, easy to cycle and mountain bike. I would advise racing cyclists not to ride this path, as it is a reasonably smooth forest or gravel path. At the beginning and end you share the path with hikers, but that's not a problem because the paths are wide enough. You can always go back to the water. If you're away from the tourist rush, there are wonderfully few people around and you almost have the path to yourself. 👍🏼🙃
