Your spa hotel with children in the Black Forest

The Black Forest is a true paradise for children and families. In the summer, young and old alike can enjoy the beautiful natural surroundings, the many crystal-clear lakes, and plenty of sunshine, and in the winter, the snow beckons—because year after year, the Black Forest transforms into a true winter wonderland and offers numerous opportunities for outdoor activities.

At our place, rest and relaxation are our top priorities, and everyone will find something they enjoy eating in our restaurant. The Schlehdorn offers the perfect setting for a wonderful family vacation in the Black Forest.

Wellness for Kids & Teens

It’s never too early to start enjoying wellness, which is why we also offer treatments specifically designed for children and teens. Relax together as a family after an eventful day.

You’re also welcome to bring your slightly older children into our family-friendly textile sauna. That way, you can enjoy some relaxing time together.

Playground? Right around the corner

Our playground at the Köhlerei, not far from our Schlehdorn, offers a variety of attractions and is located right on the lake.

The first stainless-steel ball track in the Upper Black Forest, climbing towers, an excavator, and a crane invite the little ones to let off steam to their heart’s content.

While the children play happily, parents can relax on the cozy terrace at the Köhlerei and keep a close eye on their children as they play on the playground.

Would you rather stay in a vacation rental?

For anyone who needs a little more space, our spacious family accommodations at the Schwarzenbach Apartments are just the thing.

Summer excursion tips

How about a trip to the Hasenhorn Rodelbahn for example? It’s a thrilling ride for young and old alike. The spectacular summer toboggan run in Todtnau is not weather-dependent and can therefore be used even in the winter. You and your little ones are sure to enjoy the ride on the rail-guided sleds through the Upper Black Forest.

Or would you rather take a dip in the cold water? Then visit Lake Titisee ! In addition to many swimming spots, the chance to rent small pedal boats and electric boats, or to stroll along the lakeshore, the lake also features a beach with a large sandy area, as well as lounge chairs and beach chairs for relaxing in the sun.

In addition to a mountain toboggan run, the Alpine Coaster and a large adventure playground,Steinwasen Parkin Oberried offers many animals to see and pet. In addition to dwarf donkeys and goats, you can marvel at lynxes, raccoons and red deer. An on-site gastronomic offer rounds off the visit.
