Donaueschingen is not a big city but it is an important regional hub at the intersection of four railway lines.

Donaueschingen is on the A864, which gives access to the A81 Stuttgart – Singen (Hohentwiel). It is also served by the trunk roads B27 (Stuttgart – Schaffhausen), B31 (Freiburg im Breisgau – Lindau) and B33 (Offenburg – Constance).
