Stage 5 and verily I tell you: beautiful, beautiful, beautiful! 2 tips in advance: 1. put your photo camera on standby, you will need it 2. do NOT plan this day in the weekend. The most beautiful road in the Black Forest is included in this: the Schauinslandstraße. It would be a shame if you missed this road. Moreover, there is another surprise in the route!

You depart from hotel Alte Post and before you have left Laufenberg, you can take a nice picture from above of the old town, the Rhine and the opposite ... also Laufenburg. For convenience, the Swiss have given the city on the other side of the water the same name.
Soon you will be driving through the woods in the extreme south of the Black Forest. I really wonder how many turns and nice views you're going to get. I've lost count. At Todtmoos you turn off and test your tires more and more. What's up with that anyway? Have the sides already been discussed in recent stages? Here are many more rubber eaters.
It seems as if the low mountain range of the Black Forest has gathered all the road builders, with the competition: whoever makes the most curves gets to do the construction. One day in this area is also far too little. You could have a great time in a week. You unwind from the initial effort at your first stop. But you will need it!
You cut through the Münstertal and the road to Todtnau is full of a colorful collection of bends. Here you can get off the road for a while to take a look at the beautiful Todtnau.

You pick up the road north again and a little later you're there: the Schauinslandstraße. Famous among many motorcyclists. It is also quite a "fight" with the corners. It just keeps spinning and spinning. Left, right, left, right. Until it makes you seasick. Just before Freiburg you leave the circuit behind and you drive straight through the city… JUST! The surprise comes now, you turn around at the parking lot and you take the same way back. If you didn't get dizzy on the way there, you certainly will now. You can catch your breath somewhere halfway through. If you had driven here at the weekend, you could have turned around. After the short break you grab the tail of the circuit (which can also be very wagging). Is the fun over now? Yes, just a moment. However, just before Fürtwangen the swinging starts again. Here you take a piece of the oh so legendary B500. Unfortunately, this main road through the Black Forest has lost much of its charm due to many speed restrictions. Where you are only allowed 50/70 for a large part, you can drive via the Nebenstrecke 100. I don't warn every time, but take pictures! There are so many idyllic places to capture.

In Bad Petersal you can get off the bike again for a short break, then you drive via Oppenau towards the Allerheiligen Wasserfall. For those who want to visit it: it's a big tipple! This writer had seen it all half way through. A little further on, Nationalparkzentrum Ruhestein has been built. This is definitely worth a visit. At least we included it in the route.
Eventually you turn into the yard of Landgasthof Anker. You order a drink and you walk out a bit rocking and awkward after that whole curve party and you think: gee, I didn't know that MRA could make me dizzy before the beer.
