There is a wealth of options available to the holidaymaker – a boat trip surrounded by the forested mountains is a must. However, if you are seeking a more active approach, then hikers and Nordic walkers, cyclists and mountain bikers, golfers and swimmers will all find plenty of space around the picturesque spa resort. Another option is to take a quad trip – these four-wheeled motorcycles add some born-to-be-wild excitement to the otherwise sleepy country lanes. A vintage tractor ride or a climbing tour in the recently opened Action Forest, the Black Forest Highlands’s adventure park, also ensures you’ll never be at a loss for things to do.
Holidays to Titisee-Neustadt
Nestled deep in the southern Black Forest, Titisee-Neustadt is one of Germany’s best-loved holiday resorts, built around the beautiful glacial lake that gives it its name. In summer you can take a boat trip across the water, hike or cycle through the forested mountains, or unwind at the lakeside spa and water paradise. The scenic Zäpfle-Bähnle railway winds past traditional Black Forest farmsteads, while the more adventurous can try a quad or vintage tractor tour. Come winter, the snow-covered slopes and cross-country trails make it a favourite with skiers and snowboarders alike.

The Zäpfle-Bähnle scenic railway welcomes you aboard for a wonderful trip around Lake Titisee – you’ll ride past the distinctive old Black Forest farmsteads while the train driver points out all the highlights. In winter, the snow-covered slopes attract skiers and snowboarders – if you’re not so keen on slopes, you can take to the numerous cross-country runs.
The recently opened Art + Experience + Culture themed city tour invites you to stroll through the new town for two new paths of discovery – the first being its culture, history and shopping in a new way.
