Saline lake
Want to enjoy a short walk in the countryside on the evening of your arrival? You can do this on a tour around the Salinensee. If you would like to combine this with a meal or a refreshing drink, we recommend the beautiful terrace of the Hotel am Salinensee directly overlooking the lake.

Wittman Valley
Whether it's hot weather in summer or snow in winter - the Wittmannstal is a great place to hike at any time of year. Numerous hiking trails allow for short walks or longer hiking tours. Right through the forest and past beautiful meadows - nature is at home here.
Spa Park
You can walk from the Kapfwald apartments to the local spa gardens in 5 minutes. Large green spaces with mature trees invite you to linger. Breathe in the fresh brine air at the graduation house or treat yourself. Relax on the numerous seating areas. Would you prefer a little more activity? Then you can get into the action with Adventure Golf or Pit Pat. You can also use Pit Pat or Adventure Golf free of charge with your DreiWelten Card.
Fools' head
Cultural hours in the Narrenschopf. For the locals, Fasnacht is the 5th season of the year. In winter - mostly in February - the town of Bad Dürrheim is in a state of emergency for a week. In the Narrenschopf, you can find out about this tradition all year round, view over 380 colorful carnival figures and learn about the background to the tradition on a guided tour. In 2014, the Central Museum of the Swabian-Alemannic Carnival was added to the national list of intangible cultural heritage.
Hike to the forest café
Short hike with refreshments in the forest café. The trail starts directly at the Kapfwald apartments. After a "green" but steady climb through the local Kapfwald forest, you will reach the Waldcafé in around 30 minutes. There you can enjoy a good cup of coffee and a homemade Black Forest gateau - in good weather also on the beautiful terrace - and enjoy the wide view over the "Baar". In winter, when the snow conditions are good, a fantastic cross-country ski trail is prepared at the Waldcafé, which invites you to take part in sporting activities.
Ornithological nature trail
Get to know the birds in the area. The trail leads past the Kapfwald apartments, with information boards along the Bühlweg. The circular route then continues to the right along the Kapfwaldweg and back again via the Förstersteig, in the direction of the "Kurklinik Sonnenbühl" back via the Kurpark to the Kapfwald Appartements.
Schwenninger moss
Schwenninger Moos - a "boggy affair". A one-hour hike takes you once around the Schwenninger Moos. You can also extend the hike and walk from Bad Dürrheim via the Wittmannstal into the Schwenninger Moos, or park at the parking lot in front of the Schwenninger Moos and take a comfortable loop. Water, birds and a wide variety of mosses and plant species can be found here. A worthwhile excursion destination at any time of year with ever-changing impressions.
Himmelberg circuit
Wonderful panoramic views over the Baar await you on the Himmelbergrunde.
The Genießerpfad is a circular hiking trail, starting in the highest district of Bad Dürrheim - Öfingen - the "sunny village of the Baar".
The ascent to the summit of the Himmelberg (941m) rewards hikers with magnificent views over the Baar as far as the Feldberg; on a clear day you can even see the Swiss Alps.
