Unfortunately, our pilgrimage by e-bike from Eisenach to Marburg (Elisabeth path) planned for the end of April 2021 fell victim to the lockdown in Corona times. At some point we just had to get out. The small test tour in the spontaneously rented mobile home took us to the "natural garden" Kaiserstuhl, which is visible from afar in the middle of the Rhine plain, surrounded by the highest, often snow-covered low mountain ranges of the Vosges and the Black Forest. The Kaiserstuhl covers an area of around 100 square kilometers - there are vineyards, orchards, forests and much more here. In short, the landscape of the area is indescribably beautiful for biking (hiking) and the soul also dangles naturally.
Looking back, it was fate... with consequences! :-)

Bad Herrenalb (Albtal und Seitentäler)
Pure nature and still right in the middle. The Black Forest town of Bad Herrenalb in the idyllic Albtal is certainly a popular holiday destination with lots of charm and unspoiled nature. Due to its unique location and the natural thermal springs, the city bears the rare double title of "climatic health resort" and "health spa" and has been awarded the title of "Sustainable Travel Destination".
If you don't get your money's worth here - hiking or biking. Many signposted paths invite you to do so. You can relax and recharge your batteries in the Siebentäler Therme.
Due to Corona, it was logically closed last year.

Geroldsauer Wasserfall, Wasserfallstraße, Baden-Baden, Deutschland
Definitely drive over the Schwarzwaldhochstraße B500. It's an experience... just like the Geroldsau waterfalls.
The "walk" is almost two kilometers long. You walk beautifully through the rippling nature, along the Grobbach. Don't forget good shoes. It can also be slippery on the natural paths.
Motorhomes are also allowed in the parking lot directly on the elevated road. In Corona times it was easy to find a place (free of charge).
At peak times it should be tight today and therefore more difficult.

Campingplatz Münsterblick, Hochstetter Straße, Breisach am Rhein, Deutschland
The campsite is relatively manageable, which we found an advantage. The operator is super nice and there was also a bread delivery service.
With the smaller rental vehicle it was no problem for us to get to the site, but for "big battleships" from 8 meters at the latest it should be problematic or impossible. The bottleneck here is definitely the entrance. Not feasible for vehicles that are too high, wide and long (headroom 3.20 meters) ...

Bike-Tour nach Colmar
Breisach is practically a stone's throw from Colmar. The picturesque town lies between the Vosges and the Rhine, surrounded by the vineyards of Alsace. With almost 70,000 inhabitants, Colmar is the third largest city in the region. Nevertheless, it has retained its "small town charm" thanks to the beautiful half-timbered houses. The facades are decorated with flowers and many other things and always look as if the painter has just done a new coat of paint. :-)
The cycle path along the Canal de Colmar is a dream for every biker.
https://www.komoot.de/tour/402069166?ref=wtd
By the way, we were also here at Christmas time last year. For me personally, Colmar was far too overloaded with the Christmas chichi this time. Sure... a matter of taste!
