Titisee-Neustadt is a city in Black Forest. The city of Neustadt plays a minor role in terms of tourism.
On the other hand, the Titisee district on the lake of the same name, which is internationally known as the "Black Forest Idyll" and is accordingly well visited, is of major tourist importance.

The place Titisee is located on the north shore of the lake. Seestrasse, from the locals too Gold coast called, leads along the lake promenade and further along the Gutach and is the most beautiful shopping street in the area. Titisee is the starting point for hikes and cross-country skiing tours around the lake, according to Hinterzarten, to the Feldberg and Thurner.
Neustadt is about 5 km further east on the Gutach. The small town is rather uninteresting for visitors as there are few sights. Neustadt is due to its central location for the region Black Forest as Sub-center significant. In the east of Neustadt the Gutach valley narrows and becomes increasingly gorge-like. 12-15 km east of Neustadt, the Gutach Valley merges into the Wutach Gorge.
