Thanks to its central location, Freudenstadt is the ideal starting point for excursions of any length in the surrounding area. To the west, our neighbor France awaits, whose Alsace region delights even the most discerning gourmets. Places like Strasbourg and Colmar, the Odilienburg Castle, and the Smurf Museum offer something for everyone. The Saint Louis-Arzviller boat lift, the Hoh Königsburg castle, and the Eco Museum in Ungersheim have already captivated countless visitors. To the south, Lake Constance beckons, and the Rhine Falls at Schaffhausen and Mainau Island are fantastic day trip options. To the north lie Karlsruhe, Heidelberg, and Speyer, all places well worth a longer stay. And Basel, Switzerland, is also within easy reach; Switzerland is always worth a visit.

Why wander so far afield?

The local cuisine certainly doesn't need to hide behind its international counterparts, as the cuisine in the south of our homeland is gaining an ever-growing number of loyal fans. Skilled restaurateurs have transformed the Black Forest into a gourmet destination that can stand up to any comparison. The infrastructure of the small district town is equally impressive, and a shopping trip here is always appealing. Even the golfers among the spa guests indulge in their hobby; the golf club, founded many years ago, offers sport amidst stunning natural surroundings.
