Ravennas Gorge in December

Just by a Google search you will find various Taxi companies. In Germany I recommend taxi before Uber because taxi rides are metered and the taxis have an official registration - their number is shown in the rear and / or front window (not ID plate) and on every receipt (Quittung).

For detailed local questions I recommend to contact Hinterzarten tourist information.

Keep in mind that your ticket gives you a two hour window for the market, not just for the shuttle. I’m not sure now strict they are about making sure you adhere to your two hour window, so you may want to consider buying tickets for the next two hour window, then you take a later shuttle.

The reason for time limits is because the market is in a small area and would not be able to handle too many people at once. I agree with the suggestion to book an additional 2 hour window.

Thank you for your responses and suggestions.
May I ask if any of you have been to the Ravennas Gorge market?
If so, did you stay in Hinterzarten or nearby towns?

I have gone twice (last year and the year before), but did the torch walk from Hinterzarten to the market and the shuttle back. The town is cute and the market is one of my favorites. The torch walk is a ton of fun, but if you already have your tickets for the shuttle, then you probably have to use them. I haven't paid too much attention to the return times and I don't think they check well. Friday night is not quite as busy as Sat though.
