(Note, this is a post about Fasnet in Schramberg only. I went from town to town in the Black Forest <\/a>area in Germany to experience Fasnet first hand – if you’ve landed on this article, you should start HERE<\/a>).\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Schramberg <\/a>is a lovely little town in the Black Forest area, around 25km from the city of Rottweil<\/a>. I landed here during the start of the Fasnet celebrations, and was totally blown away by the way the entire town (and people from adjoining areas, I’m certain) had turned up in full costumes for the parade. (I’ve been given to understand that the full parade had more than a THOUSAND people in full costume!). One of the highlights of the Fasnet carnival here are the Bach-Na-Fahrer (or tub riders) who float along the city’s stream in tiny wooden tubs!\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n We started with a meal in the lovely\u00a0Braustube Schraivogel tavern – where a number of local carnival participants had gathered for an afternoon of food, beer and fun!\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
