Freiburg city breaks offer a unique experience to those looking to get back in touch with nature. Freiburg is a lively university city, located at the southern end of the Black Forest, close to the Swiss and French borders. As Germany's Green City, it could possibly be one of the most eco-friendly places in the world. However, visitors may be forgiven for not noticing the car-free streets and eco-housing amongst the buzz of market traders and locals looking to grab a deal.
Freiburg's townscape is dominated by its magnificent Münster on the bustling market square, which is transformed into a festive display for the annual Freiburg Christmas Market. As you stroll through the town, be sure to look down at the pavement for the cheerful mosaics often found in front of the shops.
The little rivers (Bächle) running parallel to many footpaths, as well as the dynamic cultural scene and an excellent range of restaurants and bars, further add to the charm of this beautiful city.
Located in the centre of the Black Forest at the southwestern tip of Germany, Freiburg is a quintessential German city that, over the years, has attracted many visitors without losing its cultural roots. A Freiburg city break is the perfect choice for those looking to take a stroll along the various nature walks, up the rocky pathways towards the picturesque peaks and through the romantic Wutach gorge. Our Strasbourg city breaks also offer the opportunity to venture into the surrounding national parks and are popular with visitors who enjoy exploring Germany's spectacular scenic sights.
