City in Germany

Freiburg

2 things to see

Freiburg is the sunny gateway to the Black Forest, with a charming old town criss-crossed by tiny water channels (Bächle) and free hiking trails that start just outside the city. Wandering the cathedral square and the cobbled lanes costs nothing, and the surrounding hills give walkers easy free days out. It sits close to the French and Swiss borders, with Strasbourg and Basel both quick, cheap regional-train trips. Spring through autumn is best for the trails, and Freiburg’s reputation as one of Germany’s sunniest cities helps.
