9Medieval Titisee-Neustadt in Germany
Try to see past the comedy name: Titisee is the largest natural lake in the Black Forest, perfect for a family pedalo outing (some come with onboard water slides). Medieval Titisee-Neustadt is a spa town with cute streets and a huge waterpark.
Long-distance trails start from the Seestrasse promenade and there are spectacular views from a tower at the top of 1,190-metre Hochfirst mountain. Renting a bike is a great way to see the area: the Bähnle-Radweg path trail takes in breweries, waterfalls, farmyards and a huge viaduct. For a multi-country jaunt, Neustadt is also close to the French and Swiss borders.
A boat trip in the shadow of the forested mountains is a must. With the round once around the lake, active people only got to know a small part of the sports offer in Titisee-Neustadt. Hikers and Nordic walkers, cyclists and mountain bikers, golfers and swimmers: they all find an extensive area around the climatic health resort.
