Todtmoos celebrates 100 years of Hochkopfturm: A hiking summer full of panoramic views, history, and Black Forest atmosphere
The Todtmoos anniversary hiking summer transforms the Southern Black Forest from mid-July to the end of September 2026 into a vibrant discovery experience. At the center is the Hochkopfturm, which turns 100 years old and will be featured throughout the summer with scenic routes, an anniversary celebration, and guided hiking days.
Hiking between panorama, mountain air, and local history
Around Todtmoos, nature experiences and cultural enrichment come together. Five certified routes lead through forests, over heights, and to striking viewpoints of the Southern Black Forest. Those seeking a panoramic route will find the Panoramaweg, a short tour of 4.21 kilometers and about 1:30 hours of walking time. For more ambitious hikers, the Lebküchlerweg, Turmsteig, and Westweg Stage 10 provide significantly more distance, elevation gain, and impressive Black Forest moments.
The Hochkopfturm as a landmark with an anniversary character
The Hochkopfturm represents the hiking tradition of Todtmoos and offers a view over a landscape stretching from the Feldberg to the Vosges and, on clear days, even to the Alpine panorama. The anniversary celebration on July 26, 2026, starts right where history, views, and community come together: with music, lectures, coffee, and cake directly at the tower.
Guided hiking days and summit challenge
Particularly appealing are the guided Todtmoos hiking days from September 17 to 20, 2026. The program is complemented by the summit challenge running from July 15 to September 30, 2026. Those who collect stamps on the most beautiful routes and submit the participation certificate on time will enter a drawing. This makes every hike a playful discovery experience with added motivation.
Meeting point, orientation and practical information
The central starting point is the Tourist Information Todtmoos at Wehratalstraße 19. The location is in the upper Wehratal and is known as a climatic health resort. For the hikes, sturdy footwear, weather-appropriate clothing, and sufficient drinking water are recommended. Depending on the route, the experience ranges from enjoyable half-day tours to sporty full-day hikes with a lot of elevation gain.
Conclusion: The Todtmoos anniversary hiking summer combines movement, views, and regional identity into a coherent Black Forest experience. Those who want to experience Todtmoos particularly intensively in the anniversary year should choose the right route now and discover the summer at Hochkopfturm.
