Black Forest Travel Guide

The forest where Little Red Riding Hood would wander, the woods where Hansel and Gretel fought the evil witch, home to the cuckoo clock, and one of the most popular forest destinations in the world - this is the Black Forest in Germany. Located in the southwest of Germany, this mystical, wild, and scenic region is named after the black fir trees which are found here. Dozens of picturesque hamlets and towns are sprinkled across the forest along with hundreds of miles of hiking trails.
