Tips from the Community
A clear viewpoint over the Schluchsee from the road. The calm lake backed by dense forest is characteristic of this part of the Black Forest — a moment to take in the scenery before the final descent.

With a mountain bike, the riverside path along the Rhine in Waldshut is a very pleasant section. I rolled along the water in a relaxed way and found the mix of Rhine views, calm riverside atmosphere, and proximity to the old town really nice. Perfect for taking the pace down a bit and enjoying the tour comfortably.

Unfortunately, mentally challenged people have defaced or even burned some of the signs. For such types, one wishes for the Middle Ages to return (short process).

The historic Rößle country inn is always worth a visit. You can sit comfortably inside or outside under the large linden tree. The staff is always very friendly, and they focus on regional, seasonal, and delicious cuisine. The rooms are stylishly renovated and furnished in a contemporary style.

The shore, and the great photos featured here in the highlight, can only be reached by gravel bike or on foot. In Aha, you can also ride the few meters to the lake on a road bike.

The car-free Schwarzatalstrasse is a delight, especially in midsummer!

After a varied tour through the Southern Black Forest, the beer garden of this traditional inn, first documented in 1767, invites you to relax. Under the old linden tree, you'll enjoy seasonal Baden cuisine made with regional ingredients, such as chanterelle mushroom dishes or zander fillet. You can relax by antique tiled stoves or in the historic dining room. The lovingly restored vintage tractors in the former cowshed are particularly worth seeing. Larger groups are also welcome at the Rössle. Information about special offers and opening hours can be found here: https://www.porten.de/roessle.
