Today, we took advantage of the sunny day and enjoyed a bit of action. From Todtnau, we hiked along the Creation Trail up to the Todtnau Waterfall Trail. Upon reaching the waterfall, we took a short break for some photo opportunities. We continued up the waterfall and hiked a loop along the Black Forest Line (the suspension bridge is free …

On Saturday there weren't that many people out and about so we could enjoy the round! …

We took the 7300 bus from Titisee to Todtnau. There we visited the church and the hiking trail to the Todtnauer waterfall starts right behind it. Again, there are good signposts. It's always going uphill here. Once you have arrived at the waterfall, you can continue hiking to the Todtnauberg outdoor pool. There is a small snack there. After a …

...or something like that... Today, @Ben and I were visiting Basel and headed to the neighboring Black Forest to check out the Black Forest Line suspension bridge and the Todtnau Waterfall.

Parking is available in front of the entrance to the suspension bridge. However, there are numerous trails and loops for hiking. The trail from Todtnau, heading left toward Stübenbach, with its six small bridges before the waterfall (on …
