About Hinterzarten

Nestled in the heart of the Black Forest, the laid-back resort village of Hinterzarten is famed for its excellent wellness hotels and beautifully wild landscapes. Ideal for immersing yourself in nature, this part of Baden-Württemburg brims with both summer and winter activities for fans of the great outdoors. The best places to stay in Hinterzarten, however, are nothing short of indulgent: a brilliant complement to the raw expanses of fields and forests which surround them.

Keen adventurers will be spoilt for choice when it comes to things to do around Hinterzarten. Follow rambling routes, cycling trails and horse riding paths during the flower-filled spring and summer months, zig-zagging along hillsides, across meadows and through towering pine forests. Marvel at the abundant birdlife and rare plants in tranquil nature reserves, gaze across the jagged rocks of the ominously named Valley of Hell, and walk the perimeter of the Mathisleweiher bog-lake.

If you’re into golf, a round or two at the scenic Black Forest Golf Course should be high on your list, whilst winter skiers can hone their skills at the famed ski jump centre. Little ones, on the other hand, will adore the Adventure Playground. Indulge in revitalising spa treatments at the best places to stay in Hinterzarten after big days out — you’ll feel all the better the following morning!
