Water is the defining element of the hike on the Albsteig: The 83 km long hiking trail accompanies the southern Black Forest Alb from its confluence with the Rhine near Albbruck to its source at Feldberg and Herzogenhorn. The demanding tour leads through the uniquely beautiful, wildly romantic landscape along the mountain river with gurgling streams, rushing waterfalls, shady forests and meandering streams and steep gorges. It overcomes more than 2,700 meters in altitude, but rewards the effort with breathtaking views from the highest peaks, unique nature experiences and a varied landscape.
