Schau ins Land
The route is mainly on beautiful roads and after a short 1H30M winding we stop at Bäckerei Backhäusle for a cup of coffee. After coffee we wind further towards Schau in Land, after again many beautiful bends, descents and climbs we arrive at Schau ins Land *, also the lunch location for today.
* The Schauinsland is a 1,284 meter high mountain near Freiburg im Breisgau, Baden-Württemberg. In the autumn, views are possible over the clouds to the Vosges and the Alps. The top of the mountain can be reached on a twelve kilometer long road full of hairpin bends. From 1923 to 1984 ADAC organized the Schauinsland-Rennen on this road. Since 2000, this race has been held every two years with old cars built before 1984, the Schauinsland Klassik. A cable car has been running from the valley station "Horben" to the summit since 1930. The track is 3600 meters long, the ride takes 15 minutes.
On April 17, 1936, a group of English school children walked on the Schauinsland. They ended up in a sudden snowstorm and became disoriented. They split into two groups. One group reached the valley after which a major search for the others was started, of which five lost their lives. In memory of these children a monument was placed in 1938. (Source: Wikipedia).
After lunch we wind the 12 KM down towards Freiburg, one hairpin bend after the other looms. This road is closed to motorbikes on Saturdays and Sundays!
When we arrive in Freiburg, we have to deal with some road works and we have to get off the route for a while, what traffic, while in the majority of the Black Forest we hardly encounter any traffic.
As soon as we are back on the route, we drive on and we arrive at Kandel, this is a beautiful viewpoint and also starting point for hanggliders. Here we stop again to take some pictures. The winding road down is very nice, but the road surface is very bad, I suspect this part of the L186, between Kandel and Waldkirch, will soon be closed to be replaced.
We drive on and stop again for a cup of coffee at the Imbiss Löcherbergwasen in Oberharmersbach. In this route you will again use the B500, the Schwarzwaldhochstraße **.
** The Schwarzwaldhochstraße is an impressive, wide road that runs right through the Black Forest. Another well-known name for this route is also B500. The winding route goes through the nature park and runs from Baden-Baden to Freudenstadt, at altitudes from 800 meters to one kilometer. The road offers visitors an enchanting view of the Rhine Valley and the Vosges, among other places. Not to be forgotten is that the beautiful nature certainly invites you to walk, take pictures and enjoy the sights along this route.
Just through Freudenstad and refuel in Baiersbronn before we are back at the hotel
Because we drove this route ourselves, we rate it with 5 stars.

Baden-Württemberg
About this region
Baden-Württemberg (; German: [ˌbaːdn̩ ˈvʏʁtəmbɛʁk] (listen)), commonly shortened to BW or BaWü, is a German state (Bundesland) in Southwest Germany, east of the Rhine, which forms the southern part of Germany's western border with France. With more than 11.07 million inhabitants as of 2019 across a total area of nearly 35,752 km2 (13,804 sq mi), it is the third-largest German state by both area (behind Bavaria and Lower Saxony) and population (behind North Rhine-Westphalia and Bavaria). As a federated state, Baden-Württemberg is a partly-sovereign parliamentary republic. The largest city in Baden-Württemberg is the state capital of Stuttgart, followed by Mannheim and Karlsruhe. Other major cities are Freiburg im Breisgau, Heidelberg, Heilbronn, Pforzheim, Reutlingen, Tübingen, and Ulm.
What is now Baden-Württemberg was formerly the historical territories of Baden, Prussian Hohenzollern, and Württemberg. Baden-Württemberg became a state of West Germany in April 1952 by the merger of Württemberg-Baden, South Baden, and Württemberg-Hohenzollern. These states had just been artificially created by the Allies after World War II out of the existing traditional states Baden and Württemberg by their separation over different occupation zones.
Baden-Württemberg is especially known for its strong economy with various industries like car manufacturing, electrical engineering, mechanical engineering, the service sector, and more. It has the third highest gross regional product (GRP) in Germany. Part of the Four Motors for Europe, some of the largest German companies are headquartered in Baden-Württemberg, including Daimler, Porsche, Bosch and SAP.
The sobriquet Ländle (a diminutive of the word "Land" in the local Swabian, Alemannic and Franconian dialects) is sometimes used as a synonym for Baden-Württemberg.

Top 5 Car and Motorcycle Routes in the Black Forest
The Black Forest, who hasn't heard of it? The Black Forest is a densely forested area and low mountain range in southwestern Germany, located in the state of Baden-Württemberg, on the Rhine and the French border. It is the largest low mountain range in Germany. Geologically, it is related to the Vosges Mountains, which lie on the French side of the Rhine. The highest peak of the Black Forest is the Feldberg with a height of 1493 meters above sea level. The Black Forest is the largest forest area in Germany and consists mainly of pine and spruce trees. The Black Forest is known as one of the most popular tourist destinations in Germany. A small part in the north is protected as the Schwarzwald National Park. The Romans called the densely forested mountain range with its distinctive dark conifers Silva Nigra - "the Black or Dark Forest or impenetrable forest", which to them was ominous and almost impenetrable. The German word Schwarzwald was used for the first time in a document from the Swiss monastery of St. Gallen from the year 868. A well-known car route is the Schwarzwald-Hochstraße, B 500 and the Uhrenstraße. The Black Forest is known worldwide for the fairy tales of the Brothers Grimm.
There are also several lakes in the Black Forest, namely: Titisee, Glaswaldsee, Mummelsee, Kirnbergsee, Feldsee, Schluchsee and the Hotzenwald.
The highest peaks in the Black Forest are: Feldberg (1493 m), Seebuck (1448 m), Herzogenhorn (1415 m), Belchen (1414 m), Schauinsland (1284 m), Kandel (1243 m) and the Hornisgrinde (1164 m ).
