Day 5: The Black Forest

The Black Forest is not flat

Today I start with good intentions to enjoy the views of the Black Forest, quietly, rather than making miles.

Tour Proposal: Turin - Black Forest

Overall Description
This bicycle trip will pick you up in the magic atmosphere of the dense woodland of the German Black Forest, the region which extends from the Swiss border, north from Basel, up to Baden-Baden city. This trip touches only the southern part (Southern Black Forest Nature Park) of the Schwarzwald, which is rich of nature and local traditions. The Tour will pass across Switzerland with its spectacular mountain passes like Simplon Pass, Furkapass and Great St Bernard Pass and reach the Feldberg in the Black Forest (Germany), the highest peak in the area, and the lakeside resort towns of Titisee, the reservoir Lake of Schluchsee and many other highlights that you can see below in this post.
