This high-altitude hiking trail is named after the Kandel, the highest mountain in the central Black Forest at 1,241 metres above sea level. The Kandel-Höhenweg was created in 1935 and has been maintained by the Black Forest Association ever since. It is signposted with a red rhombus with a K on a white background. The Kandel-Höhenweg is divided into 5 daily stages, but can also be completed individually according to personal requirements. It can be started anywhere, as can the direction of travel. You can download all stages with map, route description, elevation profile, GPS track and other information free of charge here.
