Bike-Crossing Schwarzwald

440 kilometres of pure Black Forest, that's "Bike-X-ing Schwarzwald" from Pforzheim to Bad Säckingen. Originally planned as a mountain bike route, it now pretty much fulfils the requirements of a gravel tour right through the Black Forest to the Swiss border.

It can be divided into any number of daily stages. In total, there are more than 12,000 metres of elevation gain to conquer, and averagely trained gravelers/bikers should be able to complete the entire route in seven to eight days.

Please note:

The signposting for the Bike-Crossing Schwarzwald will be removed. You can only navigate digitally with a GPS device, via Komoot or the free Black Forest app.

Anyone who appreciates a challenge is welcome to collect metres in altitude on the Black Forest Bike Crossing - and not in short supply.
The 440 km route takes you to quite a few beautiful corners of the Black Forest. The varied landscape is complemented by recognised good cuisine and a large selection of accommodation options. From trekking or one-night camps to mountain huts, inns and luxurious hotels.

It isimportant for us to advise you not to camp wildand to pay attention to the forest fire risk index.

New from 2016: changed route in and around Baiersbronn with trail sections. From now on, the route in Baiersbronn will only be signposted from north to south and a new type of signposting will be used, namely "X-ing" plaques on the main signposts, with "neutral" markings along the way. In addition, there are trail sections of varying difficulty, but these have signposted detours.
