The European watershed at the Martinskapelle near Furtwangen in the Black Forest separates the catchment area of the North Sea (via the Rhine) from that of the Black Sea (via the Danube) at an altitude of around 1,085 meters. Course of the watershed Rhine catchment area (northwest side): Here the Elz originates, which flows via the Rhine ultimately into the North Sea. Danube catchment area (southeast side): Only about 100 meters from the watershed lies the source of the Breg. The Breg is considered the longest headstream of the Danube, whose water flows into the Black Sea. The separation: A ridge only a few meters wide decides here whether a water droplet begins its journey west to the Rhine or east to the Danube.

Even without snow (cross-country skiing starts here most days), it's a lovely place to linger.
