Hiking & Biking around Gengenbach
Active holidays in the Black Forest National Park
At times overgrown and mystical, at times sun-kissed and full of fruits, flowers and enchanting green - the Black Forest, in its natural diversity and versatility, is a gem for nature lovers and those seeking relaxation. Above all, the central Black Forest offers countless tours for active vacationists and makes you feel like hiking, cycling and just spending time in nature.
Through nature on foot
Through the vineyards, to the Mooskopf or across the Kandel-Höhenweg - these are just three of the fantastic tours that start from the Schwarzwaldhotel Gengenbach. You will be surprised by extraordinary compilations of art and nature along the way. Or hike in peace and quiet and enjoy the panoramic views from the Kinzig Valley all the way to the Black Forest-Rhine Valley-Vosges triangle.

On your way on two wheels
High mountains, vast valleys - varied challenges for passionate mountain bikers and cycling fans. But also comfortable bike trails for leisurely bikers and those who prefer to take it easy. Several hundred kilometers of cycling paths run through the Black Forest and offer incomparable cycling pleasure in the midst of nature. For example, take the trail around Nordrach and enjoy the view from the observation tower at the Mooskopf. 32 kilometers of pure nature, a real experience.
