For our visit from Canada a wonderful tour in the northern Black Forest. Today are completely different impressions than in the spring, when I already did this tour. And the spectacular rock bridge is now open.

Today again on the rock bridge before it is gone.

Enjoyed the autumnal Battert in beautiful, dry, sunny, and cold weather.

Today was the perfect day. The Old Castle and the Battert Rocks are always impressive. The restaurant in the Old Castle is open. Tip: park right next to the Old Castle and enjoy the sunset at the end of the tour.
