These protected roads extend from Mecklenburg Western Pomerania to the Ruhr area. To the south it extends into the Black Forest and leads past attractive health resorts. Be it Pforzheim, the city of goldsmiths, or Calw, the city of poets and thinkers, a hitchhike is always worthwhile. Bad Wildbad is home to the famous spa gardens with the English church and the Palais Thermal, a historic thermal bath complex. In Karlsruhe, the zoo and the castle with its picture gallery beckon.
In the Black Forest, the Deutsche Alleenstraße leads from Bad Kreuznach to Freudenstadt. From there the avenue leads to the island of Reichenau, the fruit and vegetable plantation of Lake Constance. The half-timbered houses and the romantic alleys in the Black Forest lead back to a time when everything was even more comfortable and slower. There is still good German gastronomy and even homemade jams from Faller. In Triberg the waterfalls and the Cuckoo and the four-star hotel, where Goethe was a guest. Whether you are interested in jewelry, model trains or watches, there is something interesting for every taste. Lovers of wellness can be pampered, athletes go on a ski hike or a pleasure hike with a guide. In Schömberg there is a lucky community and nice shops for shopping. Far away from the autobahn, wonderful landscapes and local experiences can be found.
