Description fournie par l'éditeur :
Guidebook to the Westweg (Westway), a 285 km walk across Germany's Black Forest from Pforzheim to Basel. This classic route, which includes Feldberg, Black Forest's highest peak, takes 13 to 14 days, each day stage ranging from 15 to 28 km. Two variants are described, both well way-marked and suitable for those new to long distance walking.
Seasons : The Westweg is a Höhenweg, or 'high route', so it is best to walk this trail during the main hiking season between April and the end of October.
Centres : The Westweg starts in Pforzheim or in Basel, but it is possible to do half the route and start in Hausach.
Difficulty : A medium-sized mountain range, the Black Forest's highest peaks are just under 1500m. The terrain is easy, although some of the ascents are steep. Anyone with a good level of endurance and some hill walking experience would be able to enjoy this long distance trail.
