Beautiful loop in the Black Forest National Park, Baden-Württemberg.
This route begins in the village of Buhlbach and explores the wooded area north of the town. The area is part of the Black Forest National Park and is therefore densely overgrown with trees the entire way. The path circles some peaks, including the Wolfachhöhe and the Röhrsberg. Although it does not reach any peaks, there are also wonderful views of the Black Forest landscape along the way. There is a restaurant near the starting point where you can stop off.
