This is my second time visiting this hot spring in two years. It's a mixed-gender, nude hot spring. Everyone was very open and honest; no one was shy. I slipped while walking and was teased by a foreigner, though not really. It was just a friendly greeting. Entry to the hot spring closes at 7 PM. I arrived in Baden-Baden town at 6:30 PM, so I had to drive. There was nowhere to park, so I parked randomly on the roadside. I don't know if I got a ticket. So my soak was rather rushed, only about 20 minutes. The water temperature wasn't very high, only a few pools were slightly warmer. The main attraction was seeing young men and women with good figures swimming around; it was quite a sight. Afterwards, I searched for a long-established pork knuckle restaurant on Dianping (a Chinese review platform). There was a place that's probably close to 200 years old; pork knuckle and beer are a perfect match. Definitely worth recommending.
