I haven’t walked this trail yet, the map and GPX are a summary of my research so far. My idea is to walk the Schluchtensteig from Stühlingen to St. Blasien, take public transport to Albbruck, walk the Albsteig Schwarzwald West to Feldberg, return to St. Blasien via the Albsteig Ost, then complete the Schluchtensteig at Wehr.
