View over the Alb valley

The tourism association Albtal Plus, headquartered in Ettlingen, is a tourist marketing organization responsible for the development and promotion of tourist offerings in the Albtal.

The Albtal is the northernmost valley of the Black Forest. The small river Alb winds gently from the thermal springs of Bad Herrenalb past the monastery ruins of Frauenalb to the charming town of Ettlingen, where the valley opens into the Rhine plain.
