  • From Spa Town to Schnapps Fountains

    4月5日, ドイツ ⋅ ☀️ 19 °C

    Time to say goodbye to Baden-Baden—but not without a proper send-off. After checking out of the hotel, we swung by a local market and bakery to stock up on provisions for a picnic later in the day.

    Then it was time to hit one of Germany’s most iconic scenic drives: the Schwarzwaldhochstraße. Winding roads, deep forest, panoramic views—it’s exactly what you’d imagine when picturing the Black Forest. Every turn had us oohing and aahing like kids on a rollercoaster.

    Our destination? Ottenhöfen, where I’d seen a hiking trail on Instagram that immediately made it onto the must-do list: the Mühlenpfad. And wow—it did not disappoint.

    The 13km trail led us through peaceful villages, thick forest, and along burbling streams. All the classic Black Forest vibes, with the added bonus of historic water mills—some still in working condition! Watching the old mechanisms spin and creak like they’ve done for centuries was oddly mesmerizing.

    But the real surprise? Schnapps fountains.
    Yes, that’s a thing.
    Tucked along the trail, usually close to farms, you’ll find little huts or fridges filled with schnapps, beer, wine, and non-alcoholic drinks—resting under shady trees with a bench nearby. It’s all based on trust: take what you want, leave a few euros in the box, and enjoy. Gotta love that kind of local charm.

    About halfway through the hike, we stopped for our picnic: fresh pretzels, Black Forest ham, and cheese—heavenly after hours of hiking and sweating under the sun.

    Three hours later, tired and happy, we made it back to the car and set off again—climbing back up into the mountains to check into our next stop: Mountain and Wellness Hotel Schliffkopf. Let’s just say… very comfy, but the decor is giving peak 1980s alpine chic.

    Dinner took us to Freudenstadt, where we feasted at Speckwirt—a proper dive into local cuisine: flammkuchen, kässpätzle, lentils, and sausages, all washed down with local beer.

    And to top it all off? A sunset drive back through the mountains. Golden light streaming through the trees—it was Black Forest magic.

  • Fairy Tale Trails & Farmhouse Dreams

    4月6日, ドイツ ⋅ ☀️ 12 °C

    We woke up high above the world—literally. After a cozy night at the Schliffkopf Hotel, it became very clear that we were at 1025 meters above sea level. The wind was howling, the air crisp, and yes, it was freezing. But there’s something undeniably refreshing about starting your day that high up, surrounded by mountains and forest.

    First stop: the Allerheiligen Klosterruine and Waterfall Trail. The ruins of the abbey looked like something straight out of Tolkien or the Brothers Grimm. Majestic stone walls, arched windows, and ivy-covered corners gave it that slightly eerie, magical feel—like you’ve stepped into a forgotten world.

    From the ruins, we followed the trail to Allerheiligen Waterfalls—the highest in the northern Black Forest. The water crashes dramatically down through narrow gorges, and even with the chill in the air, it was absolutely worth the hike.

    But let me tell you—the rest of that trail? It was not messing around. Steep climbs, knee-busting descents… the Black Forest really showed us what it’s made of. At the top, though, we reached the Engelskanzel (Angel’s Pulpit)—and the view truly earned the name!

    And of course, at the base of the ruins, with that epic backdrop, I pulled out my AeroPress and brewed a fresh cup of coffee. Let me tell you, that combo of hot coffee and a panoramic ruin? Luxury in its truest form.

    Next, we dropped down from the highlands and drove to Gengenbach—a town so charming it should come with a warning label. Half-timbered houses, cobbled streets, a postcard-perfect market square, and town gates that make you feel like you’ve walked into a storybook. We wandered, grabbed a quick lunch and ice cream, and just soaked it all in.

    Then came a visit to one of the real highlights of the day: the Schwarzwälder Freilichtmuseum Vogtsbauernhof. One word: Amazing. Think: traditional Black Forest farmhouses from every region, lovingly reconstructed, complete with livestock, gardens, and costumed staff. It’s one part open-air museum, one part time machine. Wandering from building to building, you really get a sense of how people lived, worked, and thrived here over the centuries.

    From there, we pointed the car toward Freiburg, our stop for the next few nights. Checked into the Courtyard by Marriott, freshened up, and then headed out for a dinner that hit the spot in every way.

    Weber’s Weinstube delivered in full: local wines and an array of Badische Tapas—a delicious spread of small regional dishes that let us try a bit of everything.

    Black Forest hikes, ancient ruins, dreamy towns, and hearty food… honestly, what more could you want from a day on the road?

  • Towers, Toasts & Tiny Streets

    4月7日, ドイツ ⋅ ☀️ 9 °C

    Our first full day in Freiburg came with one guiding principle: structured free flow. No tight itinerary, just a general sense of direction and the freedom to follow our curiosity (and our noses).

    We kicked things off with breakfast at Erste Liebe—not bad, not great, just… fine. But it served its purpose and fueled us for what was next: coffee bean hunting. Just around the corner was Elephant Beans, one of Freiburg’s standout roasters. Naturally, I had to stop by and stock up on some locally roasted beans—souvenirs with a purpose, right?

    With caffeine levels topped off, we turned our attention to exploring the city. We’d normally jump on a local walking or food tour, but since we hit Freiburg just before Easter, those don’t start until next week. No worries, though—I found an audioguide app, and off we went on a DIY discovery mission.

    Winding through narrow lanes, across canals, and past centuries-old facades, we pieced together Freiburg’s story bit by bit. Two highlights stood out for me:

    The Münster – towering, majestic, and full of gothic drama. We were both awestruck.

    Konviktstraße – hands down the cutest little street you could imagine. It’s straight out of a fairy tale, with flower boxes, cobblestones, and a whole lot of charm.

    A lovely surprise? The daily market on Münsterplatz! We grabbed a couple of Lange Rote sausages (literally “long red”) and followed it up with more coffee, because… obviously. Then came the Münster tower climb. The view from up there? Worth every single step. Freiburg in the spring sun is truly a sight to behold.

    Post-tour, it was time for a bit of liquid culture. First up: Freiburg’s Finest, a cool little shop where we picked up some local gin for our friends back home. The owner was super knowledgeable and the bottles? Absolute eye candy.

    Then we went next level: Alte Wache, right on the Münsterplatz, where 36 local wine makers showcase the best of Baden wine. We grabbed two glasses of sparkling wine and a cheeky frozen wine treat, sat in the sunshine, and let Freiburg do its magic.

    Feeling festive (read: tipsy), we headed upstairs for a sparkling wine tasting—and promptly bought more than intended. Though honestly, can one ever have too much bubbly? I think not.

    Back to the hotel to safeguard our treasures, then straight out again for dinner at Großer Meyerhof, where classic Badisch comfort food helped bring us back to Earth.

    Freiburg, you charming little place—you definitely know how to balance history, hedonism, and heart.

  • Scenic Soak in Southern Schwarzwald

    4月8日, ドイツ ⋅ ⛅ 12 °C

    We hit the road early today to explore the southern reaches of the Black Forest, with plenty of stops, stories, and slices of cake along the way. But first: breakfast with a view.

    We headed to Extrablatt, a local chain with a reliable buffet—but the real standout here was the location. In Freiburg, it’s right by the Dreisam River, and thanks to the floor-to-ceiling glass windows, we were basically having coffee in a sun-drenched postcard.

    Bellies full, it was time to get rolling.

    Stop 1: Ravenna Gorge
    This place is dramatic with a capital D. The cliffs close in around you, the trail winds through the forest, and then suddenly: the massive stone viaduct arches overhead. We followed the trail deeper in—past the big and small Ravenna Waterfalls, until we reached the Großjockenmühle, a picture-perfect water mill nestled in the woods.
    On the way back, we passed the little touristy hub near the trailhead, where we were greeted by... a GIANT cuckoo clock. On the hour, it sprang to life with music and dancing figurines. Absolutely charming and very, very Black Forest.

    Stop 2: Titisee
    Ah yes, the legendary lake of Instagram and tour bus dreams. But honestly? A bit underwhelming. It’s calm and pleasant, sure—but the hype didn’t quite match the experience for us. We didn’t linger.

    Stop 3: Schluchsee
    Much better! It’s bigger, quieter, and more relaxed. Though the water level was really low—apparently the region is dealing with a drought right now. Still, the views were pretty and it gave us the perfect excuse for that beloved German tradition: Kaffee und Kuchen. Finally, Schwarzwälder Kirschtorte (Black Forest Cake) in the Black Forest. Yes, it’s a tourist cliché—but it’s also so good, so who cares?

    Stop 4: Dom St. Blasien
    Now this… THIS was unexpected.
    Imagine winding through tiny Black Forest towns, and then suddenly—a giant cathedral rises out of nowhere. It’s a mini St. Peter’s Basilica, plopped into the forest.
    Apparently, it was designed as a replica of the Roman original, and it’s massive. Echoes, domes, marble. I still don’t understand how or why it’s here, but I’m glad we saw it.

    Stop 5: Todtnau
    Surrounded by steep mountains and ski lifts, you can tell this town must buzz in the winter. Even without snow, it had a certain charm—nestled into the hillside, waiting for ski season to wake it up again.

    Back in Freiburg, we wrapped up this packed day at Zum Goldenen Anker. This place is all about the local food, and we came with high expectations for the Schnitzel!
    They delivered. My Cordon Bleu was crispy on the outside, oozing cheese and ham on the inside—chef’s kiss. Sanjay gave his classic Schnitzel a solid thumbs up too.

    All in all? A Black Forest day full of contrasts—waterfalls, fairytale villages, unexpected cathedrals, and cake, always cake.

  • The Road to Konstanz

    4月9日, スイス ⋅ ☀️ 16 °C

    Time to say goodbye to Freiburg. We started the day with a final walk to Extrablatt for breakfast—same spot by the river Dreisam, same big windows, same glorious spring sun. Afterwards, we took a slow stroll back to the hotel with a bit of shopping along the way, and then it was time to check out. Farewell, Freiburg—you’ve been wonderful.

    Our destination for the day was Konstanz, but first, a detour into Switzerland. Originally, the plan was to stop at Schaffhausen to see the famous Rheinfall. But with the river levels so low due to the drought, there wasn’t much of a waterfall to see—more of a polite trickle—so we decided to skip it and head straight to Stein am Rhein instead.

    And wow. Stein am Rhein is a postcard come to life. I can’t believe it’s not in every guidebook. Cobblestone streets, timber-framed houses, and entire facades covered in medieval murals—it’s like the whole town stepped straight out of a fairytale. We wandered through the center in total awe, then found a little café for coffee and a slice of raspberry cream cake on puff pastry, the baker’s specialty. Light, rich, and just sweet enough—perfection.

    After that, we drove up to Castle Hohenklingen, which overlooks the town. It’s now a pretty high-end restaurant, so access is limited, but we explored as much as we could without needing a reservation. The views from up there are just stunning—rolling green hills, the town below, and the wide, slow-moving Rhine stretching out into the distance.

    From there, it was back into Germany and onward to Konstanz. We checked into Hotel 47°, a sleek little boutique place right on the Rhine, about a 20-minute walk from the city center. The evening was still warm and golden, so we headed straight for the harbor and found a spot with a view of the lake to enjoy a glass of local Badener wine while the sun dipped behind the Alps.

    Dinner was at Constanzer Wirtshaus, a cozy, bustling spot with classic regional dishes. We both had the Zwiebelrostbraten with Spätzle—grilled beef with a mountain of caramelized onions—and a glass of local beer. Hearty, rich, and deeply satisfying after a full day of exploring. A perfect end to a day full of surprises.

  • Borders, Backstreets & Beans

    4月10日, ドイツ ⋅ ⛅ 8 °C

    We got up early and made our way to Brasserie Ignaz for breakfast. I went for the eggs Benedict on avocado toast—rich, creamy, and just what I needed to kick off a busy day. Since there were no guided tours in English, I once again turned to my trusty self-guided audio app and off we went exploring.

    We started at the art border—a fascinating open boundary between Germany and Switzerland, decorated with contemporary art. It’s such a surreal experience to casually hop between two countries, no passport checks, just sculptures and playful installations marking the change.

    From there, the tour led us through the heart of the old town: winding streets, medieval houses, stunning murals, and beautiful churches around every corner. Somewhere in the middle, we stopped at Kaffeerösterei Konstanz—not just for a cappuccino break, but to pick up some locally roasted beans, of course.

    The full tour took nearly three hours, ending in the newer part of town, close-ish to our hotel, and in a perfect position to start the afternoon program… (to be continued!)

  • Palace, Plants & Pizza

    4月10日, ドイツ ⋅ ☀️ 14 °C

    Thanks to our hotel stay, we had free access to public transportation, so we hopped on a bus and headed straight to Blumeninsel Mainau—the Flower Island. What an experience! Spring was in full bloom, and tulips were everywhere. Whole hillsides and flower beds bursting with color.

    On our way to the palace we stopped for a quick bite: classic Wurstsalat and Kaiserschmarrn. The island had a kind of dreamy charm, and the big greenhouse featured a stunning orchid exhibition—floral overload in the best way possible.

    We spent nearly three hours wandering the gardens, soaking in the scent of flowers and the beauty of the lake views, before heading back to the hotel for a quick freshen-up and power nap.

    Dinner that evening was a little break from all the hearty German fare. We went for Italian at L’Osteria—antipasti and pizza, the kind that tastes even better after a full day of walking. A perfect ending to a picture-perfect day.

  • Lake Views, Vineyards, Palaces

    4月11日, ドイツ ⋅ ☀️ 11 °C

    Today was quite an exciting one! We’re leaving Konstanz and heading into the Allgäu to visit Jule—but not without some beautiful stops along the way.

    We got up early, had breakfast at the hotel, and hit the road… or rather, the water. We left Konstanz by ferry from Staad to Meersburg. Super uncomplicated, super efficient, and just so scenic. The lake was sparkling in the morning sun, with light fog hanging low over the water. Absolutely magical.

    Meersburg wasn’t just a ferry stop—it was our first destination. And wow, what a gem! The upper town is crowned by the old castle and the baroque palace of the prince-bishops. Think cobblestone streets, timber-framed houses, and arched gates that beg to be photographed. In contrast, the lower town stretches along the waterfront, with restaurants on one side and vineyards crawling up the hillside toward the castle on the other. We strolled through town, took our time, explored the palace—and soaked up every bit of charm Meersburg had to offer.

    Eventually, we hit the road again, onward to the next lakefront beauty: Lindau.

  • Islands, Ice Cream & Alpine Views

    4月11日, ドイツ ⋅ ☀️ 15 °C

    The drive from Meersburg to Lindau is a treat in itself—what people call the “German Riviera.” It definitely lives up to that name. Vineyards, orchards, sleepy villages, and sparkling lake views on one side, snow-covered Alps rising on the other. With the sun out and the sky perfectly blue, we just soaked it all in.

    We eventually rolled into Lindau, the island town on Lake Constance. It’s built on an actual island just off the mainland, and it is simply stunning. The harbor, guarded by the Bavarian lion and a historic lighthouse, opens up to a picture-perfect promenade. We grabbed ice cream, sat by the water, and listened to a street musician singing mellow covers. Bliss.

    Of course, we explored the old town before we left—past the old Rathaus, a charming church, and the Neptune Fountain tucked between centuries-old buildings. Then it was time for the final stretch: into the Allgäu to see Jule.

    She lives in an old farmhouse on top of a hill, surrounded by rolling green pastures and views straight to the Alps. The kind of place that makes you sigh happily the moment you arrive. To complete our “Schropprich” trio, our friend Caroline also joined us from Cologne! We all gathered at Jule’s place before heading out for a proper Allgäu dinner.

    I had Spargelcremesuppe (white asparagus cream soup), Sanjay chose the Flädlesuppe (savory broth with crepe strips). My main was the Tafelspitz with horseradish sauce and more asparagus. Sanjay had lamb crusted with herbs, served with spring veggies and potatoes. Local, seasonal, comforting. Everything we hoped for and more.

  • Bubbly Vibes & Market Treasures

    4月12日, ドイツ ⋅ ☀️ 12 °C

    After a long night of deep talks and laughter, we allowed ourselves a bit of a sleep-in—though not for too long, as there was plenty to see and do. From Jule’s hilltop farmhouse, nestled in the rolling green of the Allgäu, we drove into the region’s “metropolis”: Kempten.

    Our first stop was the bustling farmers’ market right in front of the cathedral. We filled our bags—and eventually the car trunk—with everything we needed for the weekend: meats for the grill, fresh cheeses, veggies, treats, and of course, some local coffee. It’s always such a joy to interact with the vendors, sample little bites here and there, and just soak in the local atmosphere.

    Once properly stocked up, we headed to Café Mauerblümchen for breakfast. A bit on the pricey side, but cozy and charming nonetheless.

    After breakfast, we split up for a while—Sanjay and I wanted to explore Kempten a bit more. We wandered up to Castle Hill, strolled through the old town, admired the city hall and the cathedral. Naturally, I made time for coffee. We stopped by Weber Manufaktur & Rösterei, and I couldn’t resist a quick cappuccino at the Purschwarz coffee trolley set up on the market. I remembered them from my last visit—still excellent, still super knowledgeable.

    Eventually, we made our way back to Jule’s farmhouse. The rest of the afternoon was pure bliss: lounging at the picnic bench, gazing out at the mountains, sipping on bubbly, soaking in the sun and the quiet beauty of the Allgäu.

    As the sun began to dip, it was time to fire up the grill. One delicious course after another came off the barbecue—perfectly prepared by Thomas, using all those market-fresh ingredients. Surrounded by great company, with good food and wine in abundance, we wrapped up another unforgettable day in the heart of southern Germany.
