By Train in Black Forest

By Train

The main rail route through the Black Forest runs north-south, following the Rhine Valley from Karlsruhe to Basel. There are fast and frequent trains to Freiburg and Baden-Baden from most major German cities (you generally have to change at Karlsruhe).

Local lines connect most of the smaller towns. Two east-west routes -- the Schwarzwaldbahn (Black Forest Railway) and the Höllental Railway -- are among the most spectacular in the country. Details are available from Deutsche Bahn.
