A rural idyll close to the city – Welcome to the Zechenhaus!

If you’re looking for peace and quiet but don’t want to be completely off the beaten path, you’ve come to the right place: The Zechenhaus is located on the green outskirts of Frankenberg—just 3 km from the town center—and welcomes you with the cozy atmosphere of an old farmhouse.

Surrounded by fields, meadows, and rolling hills, you’ll find a relaxing retreat with rustic charm—ideal for anyone traveling in a camper who’s looking for a place to take a deep breath, unwind, or start the day to the sound of birdsong.

Pure nature & nearby attractions: Just about 20 minutes away lies the beautiful Kellerwald-Edersee National Park—a true paradise for outdoor enthusiasts. Whether hiking, biking, or simply enjoying the forest—the untouched nature and ancient beech forests offer plenty of space for adventures big and small. Lake Edersee itself is also just a short trip away: perfect for swimming, boating, or a relaxing break by the water.

In Frankenberg, there’s a lovely swimming pool—as well as charming cafés, shopping, and a picturesque old town with half-timbered charm. Perfect for a quick stroll through town in between activities.

Your camp is situated in a quiet, nature-filled location on the spacious farm grounds, offering the most beautiful view of the valley as well as plenty of space to relax, cook outdoors, build a campfire (where permitted), or simply let your gaze wander into the distance.

For everyone who loves nature—and a little bit of freedom to go with it.
