The film shows a series of locations and the way of life in the Black Forest. It leads from Baden-Baden with its 20 hot springs through the Murg Valley southwards, past the Daimler factory and the friendly Gernbach stream, along the scenic Black Forest High Road, past the Allerheiligen monastery at the foot of Kniebis-Freudenstadt, Württemberg's highest town - Thermalbad Rippoldsau - through the Schappach Valley with its high pastures and isolated farmsteads down to the Kinzig, the border between the northern and central Black Forest.
