Cross hiking? Doesn't ring a bell? No wonder, the ALBTAL.Abenteuer.Track is something brand new. Cross hikers leave marked hiking trails behind and cross natural obstacles in the landscape. Rocks, streams and precipitous hillsides are the challenges that you're looking for. Two arduous tours take you over sticks and stones in the northern Black Forest. But beware: This is nothing for wimps. A certain stamina and hunger for adventure is what it takes to complete the challenge. Do you think you're ready for this?

Just in case that two days of hiking aren't enough for you or you're not a fan of hardcore adventures, we added more beautiful hiking tours to this collection. Each one has its own charm - be it the discovery of historical sites or an unwinding stroll through nature's best. The northern Black Forest certainly has it all!
