Black Forest

During our holidays in September we stayed in Basel, Switzerland, and from there we went for a few days to the Black Forest in Germany. On the first day we drove to Baden-Baden, a nice town in the northern part of the Black forest. The night we spent in a hotel on the Hohenbaden castle. Actually it's a ruin, quite big and situated high above Baden-Baden on a rocky outcrop. There we had a small flat with a bed and living room, it was nice, but a bit too cold inside the stony walls.
The next day we drove along the Hochschwarzwald road to Freudenstadt with its very big square in the center of the town. From there we went on to Haigerloch where we spent the night in the castle. On the way back to Basel we visited the impressive Hohenzollern castle on the top of a mountain.
