How To Get To The Steinwasen Park

By Air

None of the big international airports are less than one hour driving time from Steinwasen Park. Basel, Switzerland’s airport is probably the closest, and there is the possibility to transfer by rail. (No train runs direct, so be sure to plan your route and note any train changes.)

By Car

From the A5, take exit 62 to connect to the B31a. The B31a will connect to the L126 (Oberried) which leads right to Steinwasen Park.

By Public Transport

The trains to Steinwasen Park stop at the station for Oberried (Breisgau) / train stop St. Wilhem Steinwasen. You can get exact details for your journey at the Web site of the NVBW, the public transport service of Baden-Württemberg (click on the English flag in the upper right). It may require several train changes before you reach the park, so plan accordingly!

Steinwasen Park Highlights

River Splash

This ride is part water ride, part dizzying heights climb. As you get inside the small raft, you are lifted 19 m (62 ft) in the air until you reach the top of a long water slide. The machine then transfers you to the river rapids, where you twist, turn and splash your way down.

Bob Sled Run

This attraction also combines two of the park’s greatest attributes – a fun, adrenaline-filled ride with the beauty of a nature park. As you fly down the mountain in your bobsled, you’ll be treated to lovely views of the wild animal enclosures.

Wildlife Park

One thing that sets apart Steinwasen Park from others is that it also includes a nature reserve with many wild animals. There are over twenty species, like reindeer, lynx, red deer, wild boar, ibex, raccoons, fallow deer, European mouflon wild sheep and chamois goats.

More Steinwasen Park Attractions

Sit back and relax as you cruise along on the Black Forest Train. The highlights of this train journey include a view of the wildcats and passing through the stalactite-filled cave of Haselbach and other lovely sites until at the very end when you are thrown out of a volcano.

There’s the rope bridge, which dangles and swings you in the air at a height of 30 m (98 ft) over the valley below. If you can stop jumping and twisting on the bridge long enough, you’ll be treated to views of the wildlife park.

For something a bit closer to earth, but still filled with fantasy, head over to the Myth of Mummelsee. Every twenty minutes, you’ll hear the legend of the mermaids at different points in the lake.

Restaurants

The Steinwasenstube offers year-round dining and cuisine from the Black Forest.

In the summer, a large sundeck is the perfect place for a meal with its lovely views of the surrounding vistas. But if you don’t have the time for a sit-down menu place, then try the bistro at the park entrance, or any of the snack kiosks located throughout the park.
