Schaffhausen Travel Forum

Hello,
We will visit Karlsruhe in easter.From there we plan to visit rheinfalls and come back to karlsruhe on the same day.Can any body suggest what else we can do after seeing the rihne falls? Is there any other place or town nearby worth visiting? We would enjoy the natural beauty more than museums ,historical places etc.

One more thing is, how can we reach rehinfalls ?is there any walikg trail along the the river side from any railstation?
Thanks a lot in advence

All answers to your questions you will find on

Also have a look on my VT-article "Off the beaten path"

Another suggestion, if you have enough time (about 2-3 hours, starting in Schaffhausen) is the most scenic train ride through blackforest with the so called "Sauschwänzlebahn" (pic's tail train) on an old fashioned steamy train.

You can start the roundtrip in Schaffhausen with a bus, bringing you to the right station in blackforest. At the terminal station you will find a bus bringing you back to Schaffhausen. Further information on this website:

the website is in German only, try google's translation service.

Here's the link to the transfer-bus-company:

Thank you for your reply. But as far as I could understand from the german site this special train does not run in April.Does it?
Thank you for your help
