Karlsruhe HBf to Karlsuhe Bahnofsvorplatz
I am heading to Baden Baden to enjoy the spa from Paris while I am on vacation in Europe. I have a 23 minute transfer time at Karlsruhe Hbf to Bahnhofsvorplatz. Will this be enough time? Are there any maps or directions in English. I can barely speak German and don't want to end up missing my train to Baden-Baden.

Hi,
Never been in Karlsruhe but Bahnhofsvorplatz translated is an area in front of the rail station (most cities have an area like this with this name)
http://www.bahnhof.de/file/bahnhof-d...Hbf_de_PDF.pdf
Shows that one exit leads directly to teh Bahnhofsvorplatz (the lower one on the pdf).
If you use the webpage
http://www.bahnhof.de/bahnhof-de/Karlsruhe_Hbf.html
The Bahnhofsvorplatz in just at the north exit (you see some black tracks right outside the big rail station).
Or just look at google maps (Hbf Bahnhofsvorplatz has a green symbol with an S in it)
So all in all I would think 5-10 minutes depending on which track you arrive upon should be enough time to get you there.
Let me know if I can help (german native speaker)

Even if you were to miss your connection, there are frequent regional and suburban trains to Baden-Baden, all of which should be covered by your ticket. If in doubt, just ask at the information desk.
