Winter magic around the "Hüsli"

From the parking lot of the tourist information office, where there are also public toilets, you first walk towards the main road and turn left onto the "Alpenblickweg" in front of the "Tannenhof". Follow this path into the "Kapellenwald". Stay on the path, which now makes a wide right-hand bend and turns into the "Hochstichweg". This takes you past the youth campsite to the sports field. Here you turn right onto "Schlüchtseeweg", which takes you for a short distance along the lake and then leads you back to the starting point.

We recommend winter-proof equipment!

Sometimes slippery conditions in thawing weather.

Please pay attention to the signposting on the hiking trail and the corresponding walking direction. You can find precise and detailed information about the signposting and the hiking guidance system on our homepage: The hiking ABC (hochschwarzwald.de) 

In emergencies, please call 112.

Certified premium winter trail

Certified premium winter trails are specially maintained and signposted winter hiking trails that have been developed together with the "Deutsche Sporthochschule Köln" (German Sport University Cologne). The routes are selected so that they are mostly very scenic and as easy to walk as possible. The winter hiking trails are checked and cleared or rolled daily and are mostly circular hiking trails.

Afterwards, let yourself be transported back in time in the "Hüsli" museum of local history or warm up in the café or the Rothaus brewery.
