A Photo Essay: Hiking the Black Forest
The Black Forest, so named for its thick growth of conifers, which apparently block out the sun, is a really pretty place, people. Like, really pretty. Like, you should book a vacation there tomorrow. Just sayin’.

Love that last picture. It makes me want to run down the trail into the sunset!

My family (generations ago) hails from the Black Forest area. Got to make it there someday! Great photos.

I visited the Black Forest when I was a kid. I remember it seemed like the sort of setting where a gnome could pop out at any moment. It’s very fairytale.

Very pretty. That is in our backyard, and we almost never go wandering in it. Looks like you had a beautiful day.

I missed seeing the Black Forest when I was in Germany (besides driving through the fringes, not the same). I desperately want to go back and hike it though!

Fantastic photos Gigi! Looks so lush there. Did you go to the Baden-Baden area while in the region? I heard that they are the part to get into the natural hot springs!

You are pretty close to here, now… we are just a hop south of Constance in Switzerland! Glad you are liking the area.
Let me know if you come closer – my Cocker Spaniel likes new pals… π
