About Freiburg im Breisgau

Freiburg's countless green spaces and parks, the 1,284-metre-high Schauinsland mountain just a few kilometers from the city centre and the many lakes in and around Freiburg are ideal for finding peace and quiet and enjoying nature in the middle of the city. This is just a first impression of the special flair of our small city. Now it's up to you to experience the 'Freiburg feeling' for yourself.

The transport connections to Freiburg are very good. A highway and the federal highways B 3 and B 31 open up the region to long-distance traffic. The Rhine Valley Railway with ICE stop in Freiburg is one of the most important European north-south connections. With the Rhine port of Breisach, there is a very good waterway connection (approx. 20 kilometers to the city center). The Euro-Airport Basel-Mulhouse-Freiburg can be reached via a shuttle bus service in 55 minutes. Freiburg has its own airport, the Freiburg airfield.
