Titisee
The best-known glacial lake in the Black Forest. The lakeside town is full of cuckoo clock shops and cake cafés, and you can go boating or hike around the lake.
Lake Titisee was formed by glaciers in the last glacial period. It is about 2 km long, and the lakeside town of Titisee is the Black Forest’s most popular resort. Along the lakeside path you will find cuckoo clock shops, wood carvings and Black Forest cake cafés. On the lake, you can rent pedal boats or rowboats, or take a 25-minute sightseeing cruise. A walk around the lake is about 6 km and takes 2 hours. The north shore is quieter. Getting there: take the Höllentalbahn from Freiburg, about 40 minutes. With the Black Forest Card (KONUS), regional trains are free. Peak season is crowded, so go early.
