North Shore of the Schluchsee

Highlight • Lake

From the trail on the northern shore of the Schluchsee you have a great view of the glittering in the sun water. When it is calm, the surrounding spruces are reflected in the deep blue water.

Great views over the charming landscape. Whether from the boat or from the shore.

A wonderful promenade stretches along the northeastern shore of Lake Schluchsee. The view stretches far across the lake to the opposite shore. Those who prefer a more natural setting can also walk along the beach, which is just as enjoyable.

A beautiful, approximately 19km circular trail, completely flat with plenty of places to stop for a break. There are also refreshment stops along the way. Bring your swimsuit in summer; there are plenty of places to swim along the way. And take the Dreiseenbahn cable car to Lake Titisee. Have a great day!

This morning I took the train with my "visiting dog" at 8:17 a.m. - still without breakfast 😅 - from Freiburg main station to the Schluchsee. From there we walked in the direction of the Schluchsee outdoor pool, in order to cross the tracks there - over a bridge. We then went right along the Schluchsee circular path. It was …

Always following the "Seeweg" to go around the Schluchsee...
On the side of the village "Schluchsee" actually very nice to walk with many idyllic spots, on the opposite side of the lake unfortunately a lot along the road...

August 21, 2021,Runde um den Schluchsee

This round is beautiful and very easy to walk, mostly wide forest roads, so ideal for the day of arrival.
Unfortunately there are about 3 km of road. At least one can leave the main street at the Seehotel Hubertus over a pedestrian bridge and walk to Seebrugg on the side street.
In the meantime I have noticed that you …

Beautiful circular route around the Schluchsee. Very varied round with many opportunities to linger and enjoy the panorama over the lake. The round is not really demanding and you always have the opportunity to stop off on the way.

July 17, 2021,Vesperstube Unterkrummenhof – Schluchsee Runde von Schluchsee

The tour is rather easy to judge. No significant gradients, paths, except for about 2.0 km in the forest, all wide, level gravel paths. Often very crowded on weekends. Nice views of the lake. Did the route with 2 young people run quite relaxed. We didn't want to go shopping.

May 16, 2025,Schluchsee - Umrundung 🌞🌞

Today we walked around Lake Schluchsee. Since we followed the middle path from the dam, it was only a few meters along the B 500. A beautiful and successful tour that ended with a cold wheat beer. 🌞👍🍻

Walk around the Schluchsee.
The path is good for walking/hiking, cycling also good for prams and wheelchairs.
A ship sails on the lake with 4 berths. a whole round trip currently costs 11€.
There are also bike and boat rentals around the lake. The town of Schluchsee with its train station is also beautiful.
