We went on the Black Forest hike which is not in the city. This is for the hardy who are ready to climb a mountain. The paths, bridges, and stairs are steep and require perseverance. The trail goes through a heavily wooded area, so no panoramic views of the countryside, but beautiful wooded areas with a stream and waterfalls. We didn’t get to the top because our tour arrived later than expected due to traffic, so we had to turn around and go back down before we reached the top in order to be on time for the return bus ride. Our tour guide was good, and she discussed the history of the forest and its significance to the German people. There are also a few little shops at the bottom of the mountain that have interesting historically accurate things, such as cuckoo clocks and glass blowing.
