Abstract
The spa town of Bad Herrenalb in Northern Black Forest had been one of the first municipalities, in Germany, installing geo-tourism offers. As member of the network "Earth history" Bad Herrenalb gained an unique selling proposition by its clear focus on mineral springs and water-related themes. The results of the long-term evaluation show that especially the newly installed "Spring trail", a nature discovery trail focusing on mineral springs, has significantly boosted tourist numbers and regional added value, but has also raised awareness of the importance of nature protection. Contrary to expectations, raising tourist number showed no negative repercussions on the highly sensitive ecosystem, not even one decade after the trail's inauguration.
