New from 09 November 2026: The Hochschwarzwald Pass

Starting 09 November 2026, the Hochschwarzwald Card and WälderCard will be replaced by the new Hochschwarzwald Pass. From that date, the Hochschwarzwald Card and WälderCard can no longer be used via mein.hochschwarzwald.de. Instead, they will be provided through the new Hochschwarzwald Pass.

The Hochschwarzwald Pass is your digital companion for your stay in the Hochschwarzwald region. In the future, you will find everything conveniently bundled in one place:

Your digital Hochschwarzwald Card, if it is included in your stay.

Your digital KONUS Guest Card, provided the eligibility requirements are met.

Additional information and offers related to your stay.

You can access your personal Hochschwarzwald Pass via hswpass.de or through the Hochschwarzwald Pass app. Your host will send you your personal invitation link to register from Monday, 09 November 2026.

Don't want to or can't use a smartphone?

No problem. Your host can also provide the Hochschwarzwald Pass and the KONUS Guest Card in paper form.
