Excursion à vélo d’une journée de Titisee-Neustadt à Fribourg-en-Brisgau

This scenic cycling route takes you from the tranquil lakeside town of Titisee-Neustadt deep in the Black Forest, down to the vibrant university city of Freiburg im Breisgau. You’ll cover just over 43 km, rolling along mostly paved and quiet roads, but bring your climbing legs—there’s a solid ascent early on, with some rewarding downhill stretches towards Freiburg.

Starting at Titisee (famous for its crystal-clear glacial lake), you quickly leave the holiday buzz behind and wind through lush fir forests and charming Schwarzwald villages. The route offers classic Black Forest vistas: rolling hills, timber houses, and the occasional cowbell soundtrack. While most of the way is on smooth asphalt, keep an eye out for a few gravel sections—adding a hint of adventure!

Once you glide into Freiburg, you’ll swap mountain air for Mediterranean vibes. The city is renowned for its sustainable living, sunny weather, and a lively old town perfect for a post-ride coffee or ice cream. With more descent than ascent overall, it’s a fantastic way to experience the best of the region’s landscapes and culture.
