the watershed between the Danube and the Rhine

The European watershed at Martinskapelle near Furtwangen in the Black Forest separates the catchment area of the North Sea (via the Rhine) from that of the Black Sea (via the Danube) at an altitude of around 1,085 meters. Course of the watershed Rhine catchment area (northwestern side): The Elz rises here, which ultimately flows into the North Sea via the Rhine. Danube catchment area (southeastern side): Only about 100 meters from the watershed lies the Breg spring. The Breg is considered the longest source river of the Danube, whose waters flow into the Black Sea. The separation: A ridge only a few meters wide decides here whether a water droplet begins its journey west to the Rhine or east to the Danube.

This picture was the last one we took. We reached the parking lot from the opposite direction and didn't recognize the entrance (the direct route to the lake). That sometimes happens when you trust your navigation system too much :-)
