Interested in traveling to Triberg via train? Germany is extremely well connected by a high quality public transit system. During our visit, we found that there were a handful of out-of-town-ers, but they were predominately travelers who were seeking slow-travel in Germany. Although I don’t think I would consider Triberg remote, it isn’t very close to an Autobahn and tends to be left off of the list of many large tour-bus ventures. The city itself is also high up on our list of one of the most ‘authentic’ Black Forest towns to visit.
If you are planning to visit the Black Forest during Christmas, this is a great event to attend after the holidays. This is an especially cool event to attend since many of the Christmas Markets close on Christmas Eve. Enjoy the special Christmas atmosphere created by 1 million lights. From the 25th through the 30th of December, there is a special Christmas event called the “ Triberger Weihnachtszauber“. The City of Triberg famously illuminates the waterfalls for the Christmas season, and visiting the Triberg Waterfall in tandem with their authentic German Christmas Market is an unforgettable experience. However, we have also known many who visit the Triberg Waterfall in winter and have absolutely enjoyed it. We visited in the late summer months when the forest was lush and green, and the roar of the falls was a powerful, yet delightful reminder of the wild beauty in the Black Forest.
It is a very long and cascading fall with 7 different “drops” and the multiple viewing platforms and bridges that traverse the falls provide an up-close experience. Okay, first things first - is the Triberg waterfall a top Black Forest destination? We get emailed this question a LOT, and everytime we answer with a resounding YES.ĭespite the claim to be Germany’s tallest waterfall (it actually is the second), this waterfall is a LOT more accessible for families and those with limited mobility… plus it is stunning to see in person. The Triberg waterfall is from the Gutach River, which tumbles down a whopping 163m, which is roughly 535 feet.
