About the Hotzenwald Trail
The Hotzenwald Trail is a two-day, 46-kilometre-long hiking trail through the Southern Black Forest in Germany that runs from Schopfheim to Waldshut. The term Hotzenwald for the region through which the trail passes is derived from Joseph Victor von Scheffel's novel Der Trompeter von Säckingen. The hiking trail is sponsored and managed by the Black Forest Club. Its waymark is a white and black diamond on a yellow background.

About this route in 3D
Open the designer and the real Hotzenwald Trail becomes a solid topographic model: the route rides on top of true elevation terrain, surrounding peaks and valleys included, with automatic place labels for the towns and landmarks along the way.
Everything is editable. Swap in your own dates, rename the labels, change the base shape, or replace the route entirely with the trip YOU took. The model you see is the model you get, as a watertight file ready for any 3D printer, or as a finished print made by us.
How it works
- Open the Hotzenwald Trail in our 3D designer. Real terrain, real elevation, in your browser.
- Make it yours: use your own route, dates, labels, size and shape.
- Download the printable STL file, or order a finished 3D print. We ship to 50 countries, with optional wood frame and LED base.
Common questions
- Is this the real terrain of the Hotzenwald Trail?
- Yes. The 3D model is built from real elevation data, so every climb, ridge and valley along the Hotzenwald Trail appears at true relative height.
- Can I use my own route instead?
- Yes. The designer accepts your Google Timeline export, geo-tagged photos, or a route you draw by hand. The Hotzenwald Trail is just the starting point.
- How do I get the finished model?
- Two ways: download a printable STL or GLB file for your own 3D printer, or order a finished print and we make it and ship it. We deliver to 50 countries, with optional wood frame and LED base.
- Can I download the Hotzenwald Trail as an STL file for my own 3D printer?
- Yes. The printable STL (or GLB) file of the Hotzenwald Trail costs $10, one token, and is watertight and ready to slice. You can also change the size, base shape and labels before you export it.
