As the most visited amusement park in the German-speaking world, it offers an unforgettable experience for the whole family with its countless attractions and shows.
Day trips with panoramic views
Plan an unforgettable day trip along the Black Forest High Road, one of Germany’s most beautiful panoramic routes. Your journey will take you to the Triberg Waterfalls, where the water plunges a spectacular 163 meters into the depths – a glittering ice spectacle in winter!

An experience that perfectly combines nature and culture.
Tradition & craftsmanship: From Hüsli to glass art
Immerse yourself in the history of our region! Very close to the charcoal kiln is the Hüsli local history museum – a rustic gem of Black Forest architecture that gained worldwide fame as the home of Professor Brinkmann in the TV series “Black Forest Clinic.” The tradition of glassblowing is just as deeply rooted. In the huts around the Feldberg, you can not only watch the masters at work, but even blow your own glass ball – a special souvenir for an unforgettable time.
