Black Forest Card
Save

Panning a trip for 5 people (parents, 2 teens and a 8 years old for 3 days in the Black forest area)

What is the Black Forest Card and how is it dofferent from Red Black Forest Card? Do you only get the Red Black Forest Card if you stay in the hotels in the area that promote this card? Is it worth the money?

thanks

There are two different cards, the fee-based "Schwarzwaldkarte" and the free "Hochschwarzwaldkarte".

The Schwarzwaldkarte is available throughout the Black Forest, for the Hochschwarzwaldkarte you'll have to stay in one of the participating accommodations for at least two nights.

Seems like the Schwarzwaldkarte is valid only for 3 days, so I'm assuming that for a week's stay better to take the Hochschwarzwaldkarte and stay at one of the participating accommodations. This is unless the list of attractions is vastly in favor of the Schwarzwaldkarte card? Would be happy for any input regarding the recommended list of attractions available with each card.

Thanks

Hi! I'm just reading this thread & wondered if you'd still be happy to give advice on Black Forest attractions? Myself, my husband & our nearly 8 year old are going for a week's holiday at the start of July. I'm trying to plan our activities for the week but getting a bit stuck as to what's best for family trips as there seems so much!
