Hiking holidays Black Forest - Lake Constance

You start your hike from the Saiger height above the Titisee over the high ridge. From there you have a beautiful view of Lake Titisee, Feldberg and the peaks of the Austrian and Swiss Alps.

The path leads you down into the first highlight, the "Wutachschlucht". In this nature reserve an exciting primeval landscape with romantic gorges and cascading waterfalls is waiting for you.

Today you walk along the river Wutach through a breathtaking scenery. Smooth trails lead to Achdorf, where the river is deflected toward the Rhine. You will reach todays destination Blumberg via the waterfalls of Schleifenbach. Once there, you should take a look at the fountain “Gänseliesel” and the local carnival masks.

Today's walk takes you via the hill “Buchberg” from where you will see the famous railway of the “Sauschwänzlebahn”. Randen offers a stunning site: the blue stone, a rock group from up to 10 meters high basalt columns, which was formed during the eruption of the westernmost Hegau volcanoes. The remaining kilometers pass through a charming landscape to todays destination Tengen. 

The next stage takes you from Tengen past the hill “Wannenberg over the Duggenhart, one of the higher wooded hills, that the old post path touches. From here you have nice views on the snow covered peaks of the alps and the hilly landscape of Hegau. You wander leisurely over meadows and forests to Engen where you can stroll through the nice old town.

Engen in between – surrounded by the ancient, long extinct volcanic cones of the Hegau, the bordering Lake Constance and the majestic Alps. The seven Hegauberge mountains Hohentwiel, Hohenstoffeln, Hohenkrähen, Mägdeberg, Hohenhewen, Neuhewen and the Höwenegg are lined up next to each other.

In the 845 m high mountain you still find the remains of the ruin Hohenhewen. From the observation deck you can marvel the Hegau and on clear days even Lake Constance and the Alps. On an open field you hike over the summit, past the ruin Mägdeberg to Singen with its numerous cultural monuments. 

The last walk leads past the old mansion “Friedinger Schlössle” past Steisslingen to the ruin Homberg, fromwhere you have wonderful views over the Untersee with the isle Reichenau and the Peninsula Mettnau of Radolfzell . Soon you will leave the “Querweg” and walk through the nature reserve Mindelsee over to Lake Constance.
