Located between Freiburg im Breisgau and Basel, the Markgräflerland offers a wide range of recreational activities, attractions, and events. The region benefits from a very mild climate, which is one reason why the countless orchards and vineyards thrive here. Churches, castles, and castle ruins such as Bürgeln Castle, the Markgräfler Museum in Müllheim, and the excavations of the Roman bath ruins in Badenweiler testify to a rich cultural landscape that has been shaped by Celts, Romans, and Alemanni. Hiking along the well-marked trails of the Southern Black Forest provides panoramic views extending to the Vosges, the Black Forest, and the Swiss Jura. Both cyclists and mountain bikers will find plenty to enjoy. After an active day, the spa towns invite you to unwind in the thermal baths.
