Railroad meets rural romance

We welcome you to our idyllically located campsite, “Railroad Meets Country Charm.”

Do you love watching trains? Watching sheep or simply enjoying beautiful sunsets?

Fresh eggs from the chicken coop for breakfast? Hearing the tractor in the field or just sitting back and watching the exciting trains between Treuchtlingen and Gunzenhausen? Then you’ve come to the right place!

Do you have kids along for the ride? We’d love to have you!! Our large, natural meadow is perfect for running around, playing, and exploring.

Starting around Easter, you’ll find sheep, a tomcat, and some chickens, quails, and rabbits here. Adjacent to the property, horses graze in their paddock.

Our campsite is located behind our farmstead, offering a wonderful view and fantastic evening sun. From around April through November, you can set up right next to the inhabited sheep pasture. Would you rather be near the railroad tracks or the wheat field? No problem—you’re welcome to choose.

You’ll find us in the beautiful Franconian Lake District, about 50 km southwest of Nuremberg in Middle Franconia, in the small village of Aha, right next to the charming town of Gunzenhausen.

From here, you can easily explore Lake Altmühl, the Small and Large Brombach Lakes, or even Lakes Roth and Igelsbach. The trails here are perfect for a long bike ride or even just a short exploratory loop. In the summer, the lakes offer a welcome chance to cool off.

Distance to the bike path along the Altmühl River: 300 meters

Distance to Lake Altmühl: 4 km

Distance to Small Brombach Lake: 10 km

Distance to Large Brombach Lake: 15 km

Distance to Gunzenhausen: 1 km (groceries, etc.)

The towns of Weißenburg, Treuchtlingen, and Ansbach are also great places to linger and stroll.

Vehicles of any size are welcome to park here. Using a gas grill is no problem at all. However, since we’re in a very rural area, we ask that you refrain from using charcoal.

Upon request, you’re welcome to use our camping toilet for an additional fee. Our small tent provides privacy from onlookers.

A fully stocked refrigerator is now available for you. There you’ll find cold drinks, fresh eggs, a few treats, and ice cream for a quick refreshment. Payment is straightforward and based on trust. You’re also welcome to refill your fresh water here.

The campsite includes space for 4 people and 1 vehicle! Feel free to reach out if you have any questions.
