**If you plan to stay overnight in the Black Forest, most hotels offer a complimentary Guest Cardwhich offers reductions on various local attractions. Triberg is today one of the most touristy places in the Black Forest, but it once rose to prominence for having the purest air quality. By the end of the 17th century, woodworkers began producing clocks made entirely out of wood, therefore, making clocks more affordable. Today, hefty half-timbered farmhouses scatter the hillsides and the region is predominately known for its beautiful woodwork which entertained the farmers during the long winters. The region earned its name from the alpine trees which lock out the light, giving the area a mysterious feeling. The history of the Black Forest reaches as far back as the time of the Romans who found the weather and conditions harsh and unbearable, therefore, the growth of this region took centuries to develop. There is no question in my mind as to why so many of the Grimm Brothers‘ fairy tales take place here, for example Little Red Riding Hood, Hansel & Gretel, Rapunzel and Sleeping Beaut y. Fluffy white snow covers the rolling hills and the pine forest, castles and lakes. When the temperature drops and most of the tourists avoid visiting in the winter, the Black Forest changes into a winter wonderland.
