Especially when the crocuses are in bloom, the meadows are awash with a magnificent play of purple colors. When the crocuses are not in bloom, there is a lovely hiking trail with a good view of Zavelstein. There are also information boards here about the "Zavelsteiner Krokuswiesen" nature reserve.

Hiking

From the beginning to the middle of March you can admire wild crocuses in Bad Teinach-Zavelstein, northern Black Forest, on a nature reserve covering more than 50 hectares. On the meadows around Zavelstein, thousands of Crocus vernus sprout from the earth and show themselves in their most beautiful splendour. The wild crocus is actually native to the Mediterranean region and is only found in a few places north of the Alps, Zavelstein being the only place in southern Germany.
