The Three Lakes Railway (German: Dreiseenbahn, or sometimes, Drei-Seen-Bahn) is a 19.2 km (11.930 mi) long line in the German state of Baden-Württemberg. The line is electrified to the standard 15 kV, 16⅔ Hz system commonly used throughout the German railway network.[1]

The Dreiseenbahn branches southwards from the Höllentalbahn railway, from Freiburg im Breisgau to Donaueschingen, at Titisee station. Along its route it serves stations and halts at Feldberg-Bärental, Altglashütten-Falkau, Aha and Schluchsee, before terminating at Seebrugg.[1]

The line is so called because it passes by the three lakes of Titisee, Windgfällweiher and Schluchsee.
