"The Black Forest (German: Schwarzwald) is a densely forested area and low mountain range in southwestern Germany, located in the state of Baden-Württemberg, on the Rhine and on the French border. It is the largest low mountain range in Germany in terms of area. Geologically, it is related to the Vosges, which lie on the French side of the Rhine. The highest peak in the Black Forest is the Feldberg with an altitude of 1,493 metres above sea level. The Black Forest is the largest forest area in Germany and consists mainly of pine and spruce trees. The Black Forest is known as one of the most popular tourist destinations in Germany. A small part in the north is protected as the Black Forest National Park." From Wikipedia (NL), entry "Zwarte Woud" (translated with Google Translate), 26 July 2024
