  • Small family-run Black Forest site close to Ühlingen-Birkendorf
  • Walk to Naturena bathing lake and BallForestPath Birkendorf
  • Cosy restaurant on site with open terrace and play area
Keen to soak up as much of the Black Forest atmosphere as you can – the sights, the sounds, the scents of this gorgeous woodland area? You’ll be able to immerse yourselves fully in forest surroundings at Waldcamping Birkendorf, a small family-run site among the trees about 10 minutes’ drive from Ühlingen-Birkendorf. There are all sorts of forest feels to get acquainted with here, from listening to birdsong to splashing around in the stream that runs past the site. If that’s given you a taste for cool water on your skin, you’ll be pleased to hear that you can get more of that at the Naturena bathing lake, a little under a kilometre away. And there are forest tastes too, as the site has its own restaurant where you can sample local specialities either in the cosy interior or out on the terrace (which cleverly has the play area in sight so that parents can have a drink/meal in peace while still keeping one eye on their kids). A small shop is also on site for those who’d rather do their own cooking, with barbecues provided for alfresco grill sessions too. Other facilities include a launderette, washing-up area, chemical disposal point and bathroom block with toilets and showers. Up for more forest action? There are plenty of options around for hiking, cycling, climbing, watersports and other activities, and some great views from the top of the Riesenbühlturm tower (20 minutes’ drive away).

What customers say

This pretty, quiet park gets thumbs up for friendly staff & clean facilities (hot showers, washing up areas). Kids loved the natural pool & forest marble run. On-site restaurant's a winner too. Most found it quiet yet accessible, though some had WiFi woes & found permanent pitch areas less appealing. A few thought it a bit steep on price.

Mark B.

Power optional concrete and grass caravan site

Liked Beautiful location, lots of space, friendly people and daily access to the natural swimming pool down the road. Good facilities and walking distance to the Kugel Play trail in the forest and the village with shop, tourist info, church and restaurants. There is a stream running alongside the site which my children played in - a real bunts on hot days.

Disliked Restaurant is a bit pricey and can be a bit limited depending on staffing. Portion sizes a little small compared with other places but the food tasted good.

Lana N.

Power optional concrete and grass caravan site

Liked The onsite park, the bathrooms and the owners are great. The local nature lake is beautiful and you get free access to this.

Disliked I disliked that the pitches were not defined and were very unorganised, people were camping very close to us. The permanent pitches could do with being at the back of the campsite as I can imagine they get infuriated with the amount of foot traffic coming past, also it's quite a long walk to the washrooms from the back.

Justine D.

Power optional grass tent site

Liked We had a wonderful stay at Waldcamping. The receptionist was very friendly and the freebie drink, tickets for the lake and marble for the children’s activity was a lovely touch. The showers were clean and well kept. The campsite also has an on-site bar and restaurant however we didn’t use on our stay. We had a pitch which is among the trees and has a stream running by.

Liked Loved the location. The forest trail near by with the marble runs are brilliant for the kids. The natural swimming pool is also excellent!

Disliked The campsite is a bit Higgledy-piggledy with pitches in all directions and they are not very flat.

Catherine L.

Power optional concrete and grass caravan site

Liked Amazing luxurious bathrooms. The swimming pool was lovely and refreshing. We enjoyed the cycle paths through the forest and onwards to the surrounding villages.

Disliked There seemed to be only one place where I could fill my 10 litre water container. It wouldn't fit under any of the sinks in the washrooms. There was a single slow tap at reception for water. Electric was supplied at the pitches, why not water?

Liked Fantastic location, great service from reception, food at the restaurant was excellent.

Disliked Wifi was not free and was a bit flaky which was a disappointment given that there is no mobile service in the area.

Local attractions

You won’t have to travel far to get a further fix of the forest – it’s a little less than a kilometre to swims in the Naturena bathing lake or kid-friendly walks on the BallForestPath Birkendorf, where you can buy a small wooden ball at the start and use it to play the marble run games along the trail. A little further afield there are lots of scenic spots to seek out, including Schluchsee (20 minutes’ drive), Wutach Gorge (25 minutes) and Titisee (half an hour). For more activity along the way, how about paddleboarding at Windgfällweiher (25 minutes) or crazy golf at Abenteuer-Golfpark Hochschwarzwald (half an hour)? Other days out might take you to meet animals and ride the toboggans at Steinwasen Park (an hour), see exotic beasts at Tatzmania Löffingen (35 minutes) or take urban strolls around Zurich or Freiburg im Breisgau (both about an hour). Or perhaps you’re ready for a drink – in which case, a trip to the Rothaus Brewery (10 minutes) might be rather appealing.
