Good day
I'll be in Germany in June, starting in Hamburg, for an event. I will be in the Hamburg area for almost 2 weeks.
My event ends on a weekend, and I plan to spend 2 nights in the south of the country, likely the southwest, prior to ending up in Frankfurt to spend several days with family. I will take the train (including the ICE) to get around.
I'd like to see the Black Forest and do some hiking, as I have never been in that part of the country.
One plan I have is to take the Black Forest train from Offenburg to Konstanz, spend two nights there and return to Frankfurt. I was recommended this because of the views of the forest and small towns along the way, not to mention the tunnels. Alternatively, I could take the train from Offenburg to a town along the way, and then do a daytrip to Konstanz by train.
However, I have read that foreigners tend to romanticise the Black Forest a little, and as my family lives in the Grosse Feldberg region, where I have done some walks/hikes, I wonder if I will see anything new. I'd like to avoid overly touristy places.
I have visited Munich a few times and have seen Salzburg.
Aside from my interests in hiking, I do enjoy historical sights, especially castles and museums. I will be travelling alone, with a backpack, and mostly by train. I can read german much better than I can speak it.
Open to any suggestions and thank you for your thoughts.
