Distance and journey time
From Place Kléber to the centre of Baden-Baden (Leopoldsplatz): about 65 km, around 55 minutes by car depending on traffic (OSRM road calculation). Our Black Forest guide gives about 1 hour.
Why go to Baden-Baden?
- Thermal baths and relaxation: the town is known for its baths, such as the Friedrichsbad and the Caracalla Spa. Opening times and rules for each one are on their own websites.
- The elegant centre: a stroll, gardens along the river, fine villas and the casino (source: Black Forest guide).
- The Festspielhaus, an opera and concert hall, for an evening out.
- The Black Forest High Road and the Mummelsee: Baden-Baden is the starting point of this scenic drive.
- Baden-Airpark: the “Karlsruhe/Baden-Baden” airport is in the area. That is a separate page: Karlsruhe/Baden-Baden airport transfer.
What about public transport?
The train is possible, usually with one change, along the Rhine valley. Baden-Baden station is not in the heart of the town centre: plan for a bus or a taxi to finish the trip. Check times on SNCF Connect or the Deutsche Bahn website. The van avoids the changes, especially with suitcases, children or a group.
ID for the border
Baden-Baden is in Germany: bring your ID card or passport. Checks may take place at the border. Travellers from outside the European Union should bring their passport and, if needed, a Schengen visa.
Full day or one-way trip?
For a one-way or return trip, the simulator above gives the price. For a day that includes the High Road, stops are charged by the hour, on quote: see the Black Forest and Baden-Baden tour. Book on the Booking page, or work out your price first on the home page: simulator.
