Nature experience – cycling through the Rhine plain or hiking in the Black Forest

On the second day, you have two options, both of which focus on the beauty of nature in the region.

• Option 1: Cycle through the Rhine plain – farm shop tour

For all those who like to be active and want to discover regional specialities at the same time, a cycle tour through the flat, sun-drenched Rhine plain is the perfect option. This tour takes you through idyllic villages, along fields and meadows that are so typical of the region. Along the way, you will pass various farm shops selling fresh, regional produce directly from the producer.

Stop off at one of the charming farms and sample fresh fruit, vegetables or handmade jams. Perhaps you would also like to sample a local wine or fortify yourself with a savoury snack. The tour combines outdoor exercise with culinary highlights and gives you an authentic insight into rural life in the Rhine Valley.

The route is easy to complete and is suitable for both sporty cyclists and leisure cyclists who prefer a more leisurely approach. There are many ways to customise the route, depending on how many stops you want to make.

• Option 2: Hike in the Black Forest – Gourmet trails in the Black Forest

Alternatively, you can opt for a hike in the nearby Black Forest. The so-called gourmet trails are well-signposted hiking trails that combine breathtaking nature experiences with culinary stops. Here are a few suggestions:

Enzklösterle blueberry trail
Baiersbronn Panorama Trail
Alde Gott Panorama Trail

Both options offer you the opportunity to experience the natural beauty of Baden intensively – whether by bike or on foot
