Black Forest holiday apartment over the bridge days
Baden-Württemberg is one of the few German states where Epiphany is a public holiday — 6 January gives a long weekend here that does not exist elsewhere.
What is different at this time of year
A single day of leave around a public holiday turns into four or five days off — which is exactly why demand on those specific dates is so high.
When people usually book
Bridge days go early, often as soon as the year starts.
