Technology, track
The Hinterzarten – Schluchsee long-distance skiing trail is machine-groomed throughout for the classic technique. The trail is marked with black signs throughout.
Signposting for the Fernskiwanderweg
Skating is not allowed on the long-distance skiing trail, but since the route largely connects existing circular trails, skating is possible on some sections if these circular trails are designed for this technique. This applies to the trails in Hinterzarten and on the Feldberg. Some of the connecting trails are approved for both techniques.
Elevation profile, character, ambition
With a total length of 32 kilometers, the route has its lowest point at 890 meters in Hinterzarten, and its highest point at 1250 meters at the Feldberger Caritashaus. This difference in altitude of 360 meters is converted into a total of approx. 550 meters in altitude through numerous ascents and descents. This means that the route is not so demanding that it cannot be tackled in one day.
