Enjoy a picturesque tour to the Belgian Ardennes and the Black Forest, staying at two of our panoramic hotels. The picturesque Black Forest is one of Germany’s largest and best-known regions, whilst the Belgian Ardennes, with its picture-postcard towns and grand country houses, is dripping with history.

The Black Forest is one of Germany’s largest and best-known regions. It is an enchanting land of spectacular scenery; with pine clad mountains, rolling hills, lush green valleys, crystal clear lakes and glistening waterfalls. Quaint half-timbered buildings can be admired as they nestle in delightful historic towns and villages. There are also dramatic gorges carved by the River Rhine, plus of course, those magnificent cuckoo clocks and the famous Black Forest Gateau.  This scenic tour is based in the delightful village of Hornberg, set in the beautiful Gutach mountain valley, in the district of Reichenbach in the heart of the Black Forest.

​

Schwarzwaldhochstrasse is the ultimate driving road of the Black Forest region and no visit would be complete without a drive on it.  At about 3,000 feet/900 m, the 44-mile/70 km stretch of the B-500 road runs along the ridges of a low mountain range. 

​

Lake Titisee - Nestled within the rolling hills and mountains of the Black Forest, Lake Titisee offers a variety of waterfront activities. Wander the alpine lake's shore to admire the nearby Hochfirst Mountain. Triberg Falls is one of the highest waterfalls in Germany with a descent of 163m and is a landmark in the Black Forest region. There are three entrances to the waterfalls, which are reached via asphalted paths, steps and footbridges.
