From the Bächle Old Town to the Observation Towers

Freiburg im Breisgau is one of the most scenic cities in Germany. The old town with its characteristic Bächle, the narrow alleys, and the towering cathedral, not least the southern flair, make the Black Forest metropolis attractive for a city trip. The foothills of the Black Forest extend far into the city and open up a wide variety of walks and hikes with their extensive network of paths. The Rosskopf, known and popular, offers a fantastic panorama from its observation tower. The same applies to the Schlossbergturm on the Salzbüchslekuppe.
