Holidays for people hungry for exercise

Action and experiences

There is always something for the children to experience in the Black Forest. Whether it’s a historical steam train ride, a festival on the lake with dragon boat races, a body painting festival, letting off steam dancing Zumba, in the fun park with bungee trampoline and magic carpet or a play and splash session in the swimming pool – the selection of adventures on offer for children is huge.

But adults also get their money’s worth with us in the Black Forest: when geocaching or on numerous hiking tours, you can even take your pushchair with you and explore nature without any worries. If you like things a bit faster, rent a mountain bike or trekking bike and set off on a big tour.

Holidays for researchers & explorers

Creativity and a thirst for knowledge

It’s not just action lovers who feel at home in the Black Forest, there is also a lot to discover for those thirsty for knowledge. Visit, for example, the “Bellihof” organic farm, the “Hof Till” cheese dairy or the Rothaus brewery behind its venerable old walls. Opposite the brewery you will find the Hüsli local history museum, which was the film location for the “Schwarzwaldklinik” TV series. Our beekeeper will also show you how our honey is produced with the help of the newly moved-in bee colonies, and the children will learn good table manners in a little etiquette course.

The Hotel Vier Jahreszeiten am Schluchsee also encourages your children’s creativity: for example, cool and colourful drinks are mixed without any alcohol during the cocktail course. That’s not all: children can let their imagination run wild while painting and doing crafts, singing and making music or baking and cooking.

School holiday programme in the Black Forest

Dream toys - great game worlds

During the school holidays, the hotel offers many games from well-known manufacturers, such as the Swedish toy brand BRIO, which specialises in high-quality wooden toys. The Dutch manufacturer Goliath presents well-known classics with the “Pop the Pig” and “Giggle Wiggle” games.

VTech is the German market leader in baby toys, electronic entertainment and educational computers. Little singers, for example, can have the time of their life with the “Kidi Siper Star Microphone” because the magic voice-removal feature turns every song into a karaoke version.
