Further south you'll find the Black Forest National Park, located in Baden Württemberg on the border with France, which is also a very notable nature area in Germany. The national park offers stunning unspoilt scenery and a hilly landscape.

In southern Bavaria you'll find the Berchtesgaden National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The park is located in the Alps and the highest peak, Watzmann, is 2,713 metres above sea level.
