Description

The Black Forest is a massif in southwest Germany, specifically in the southwest of Baden-Württemberg. It is one of the main green lungs of Europe. Its slopes begin at a height of 200 m, reaching to 1495 m in Feldberg, the highest mountain. 

From Stuttgart or Basel airport it’s a 1:45 h drive to the hotel, in the heart of the Black Forest.

I am always happy to walk in the beautiful corners of the area with my friends and clients. Here we can enjoy deep valleys with rivers. In the open green pastures traditional architecture is mixed with forests. We find firs, beech, spruces, birches, hornbeams, maples and other species that coexist in dense and humid forests.

Being a mid-height mountain massif, heavily populated by vegetation, there is a very healthy climate. There are many spa locations where we can enjoy the healing and hot springs.

We will stay in the Rural Hotel Adler, in the Fohrenbühl mountain pass, 4 km from Lauterbach, in the heart of the Black Forest. Here we will enjoy a very attractive natural environment, a family atmosphere, a delicious breakfast with one of the best cuisine in the region. Wifi is free of charge for guests.

We will take hiking trails of easy/medium difficulty level. We walk on average 4 hours per day.

We will go to the most emblematic natural, cultural and gastronomic places of the region. We will walk in the south, center and north of the Black Forest. We will pass through the most attractive natural areas around the Feldsee glacial lake, or the spectacular gorge of Wutach river.

We will visit the most interesting cities in the surroundings, Freiburg and Baden Baden.

Contact me if you are planning to come next summer. It will be a real pleasure to guide you around and show you my favourite places in the Black Forest.

Hi, nice to meet you!
I am working together with Laura Carmona González, we both were born in Spain and now we are living in the north of the Black Forest in Germany, close to the German Alps and the Vosges in France. Now I am going to tell you something else about myself.
I was born in Spain in a small village between Toledo and Madrid, nearby the Spanish Central Mountain Range. I have been living for some years in Scotland, New Zealand and 8 years in Germany. Spanish is my mother tongue and I talk fluent English and German as well as a bit of French.
I am qualified trekking, MTB and horse riding guide as well as Black Forest Middle-North Natural Park Guide - Schwarzwald Guide. Two years ago I finished my qualification as a Mountain Leader UIMLA.
Nature and mountains are a very important thing for me from long time ago, that is why I decided to take this hobby as my profession. I have worked more than fifteen years as a trekking, MTB and horse riding guide for many companies and travel agencies in different countries in the world.

¡Hola, encantado de saludarte!
Trabajo conjuntamente con mi compañera Laura Carmona González, ambos somos españoles y ahora vivimos en el norte de La Selva Negra en Alemania, cerca también de los Alpes alemanes y los Vosgos franceses. A continuación voy a contarte más cosas acerca de mí mismo, para que puedas conocerme un poco mejor.
Nací en un pequeño pueblo entre Toledo y Madrid, cercano las montañas del Sistema Central español. Viví un par de años en Escocia y Nueva Zelanda y llevo ya más de 8 años en Alemania. Mi lengua materna es el español, hablo fluidamente inglés y alemán y me defiendo con el francés.
Soy guía titulado en España de media montaña, bicicleta de montaña y rutas a caballo, además soy guía oficial del Parque Natural de La Selva Negra en Alemania y hace dos años que finalicé mi titulación como guía internacional de media montaña y actividades con raquetas de nieve UIMLA.
La naturaleza y las montañas son una de mis pasiones desde hace mucho tiempo y es por eso por lo que un día decidí transformar mi pasión en mi profesión. He trabajado como guía más de quince años para varias agencias y empresas de trekking en más de diez diferentes países alrededor del mundo.
Estoy deseando conocerte para poderte mostrar y guiarte por mis rincones preferidos de montaña. ¡Hasta pronto!

Thank you explore-share for a wonderful via feratta experience. We have been wanting to learn for a long time but don't have the facilities in Scotland. The guide Mitja was extremely helpful and knowledgeable, answering all my many questions and providing advice. On the day head to take another group but he quickly arranged another guide Borut, who was brilliant. We had a fantastic morning learning via ferrata at Hvadnik in the gorge. It gave us the confidence to later hire our own equipment and go out in Mojstrana. Altogether a five star + experience. Thank you.
