Getting Around Freiburg
Whether you’re looking for a cultural city break, an adventurous time in the mountains or a mixture of both, a holiday to Frieburg guarantees the best of both worlds.
- For an afternoon of culture, the Freiburg Cathedral dominates the city centre and boasts an impressive gothic style. The kids will love the rooftop gargoyle statues while you can enjoy learning about the history behind them. Even better, it’s ideal when sticking to a Freiburg holiday budget as entry to the cathedral is free and you only need pay a small charge to climb the stairs to the roof for a fantastic view of the city’s skyline.
- Surrounding the towering cathedral is the Munsterplatz, the main plaza that is transformed into a busy marketplace on Saturdays. On your budget holiday to Freiburg, make sure you visit this area to haggle down the prices on fresh foods, colourful textiles and souvenirs.
- Schlossberg, meaning castle hill is a tree-covered area situated in the Black Forest with a height of 1496ft. Take a walk through its trails littered with the remains of historic buildings on your holiday to Freiburg for an active way to spend a day outdoors.
- Feldberg Mountain is the highest in the Black Forest and in the summer provides a playground of activities including hiking and rock climbing. In the winter it is also transformed into Germany’s biggest ski resort outside of the Alps, boasting 50km of runs for a range of abilities, with cheap ski holidays available for all group sizes.
- After a busy day on your Freiburg trip there’s no better way to unwind than to sit back in a local restaurant and enjoy some of the traditional cuisine. The city also has a thriving bar and club scene for dancing the night away.
