Kaltenbronn, Nature reserve in Northern Black Forest, Germany

The protected area spans 394 hectares of land at 909 meters elevation, containing the Wildsee lake and extensive raised bog environments.

The area formed after the last ice age when impermeable sandstone beds and high precipitation created peat layers reaching eight meters thick.

The Kaltenbronn Information Centre introduces visitors to the natural heritage of three municipalities: Gernsbach, Bad Wildbad, and Enzklösterle.

Wooden boardwalks allow visitors to explore the bog landscape while preserving the natural environment through designated walking paths.

The reserve contains two connected lakes, Wildsee and Hornsee, situated within Germany's largest continuous woodland in Baden-Württemberg.
