Black Forest Rail & Sail


Dates Available:

Sunday 11th - Saturday 17th May 2025

7 Days, 6 Nights - Half Board

The Black Forest is a mountainous region in southwest Germany. Known for its dense evergreen forests and picturesque villages, it is often associated with the Brothers Grimm fairy tales. This area is renowned for its spas and beautiful cuckoo clocks which have  been produced in the region since the 1700s. Close to the small town of Bad Durrheim, is the Waldeck Spa Hotel, where we can relax and enjoy the breath-taking scenery of this magnificent region. Our tour includes two scenic train journeys, a boat trip on Lake Titisee and a guided visit to the Black Forest Museum.

Travel

Your comfort is our priority and all travel arrangements have been made with this in mind. Comfort stops will always be planned en route for lunch/refreshments. We will arrive at the hotel in the late afternoon, where your luggage will be taken to your room (unless otherwise specified) and you will have plenty of time to freshen up before the evening meal. Return travel will follow a similar schedule.

Your Overnight Hotel: Novotel Saint Avold, St Avold

Novotel Saint Avold is near the Saint-Avold forest, 2 km from the city centre and a 5-minute drive from the business district. It offers free Wi-Fi, an outdoor seasonal swimming pool and a terrace.

The Novotel Café serves modern and tasty cuisine and the terrace looks out onto the gardens of the hotel.
