Welcome to our quiet little farming village at the gateway to Franconian Switzerland. Our spacious recreational property on the Wiesent River lies directly across from our three-sided farmstead. Here you can relax, enjoy a cup of coffee, jump on the trampoline, watch trout, dragonflies, beavers, and bats, and even take a dip in the cool Wiesent. There is a dock, an outdoor kitchen, and a fire pit. During the summer months, you can harvest and enjoy fresh lettuce, pattypan squash, zucchini, cucumbers, tomatoes, beans, and all sorts of other vegetables from our organically cultivated raised garden bed.
Our village has a small playground and a new ping-pong table. There are several supermarkets and a truly idyllic outdoor swimming pool just 2 km away. Our own mile-long stretch for salmon fishing winds right alongside the vacation property. Fly fishermen can book day passes directly with us.

A place I definitely want to return to. Thank you, Alexis and family, for your hospitality!
Very friendly contact, even if only remotely due to our late arrival. The pitch with electricity was already prepared. We didn't use the outdoor kitchen and toilet. Great place right on the Wisent. Good location, especially with the bike you can explore the area well. Will be back again.
Super cordial host, beautiful place and you have the feeling that everything has been thought of! Thank you Alexis
We spent 2 days camping with Alexis, the property is beautiful and offers everything you could wish for as a nature-loving person. Special highlights were the summer kitchen and the fire pit. Alexis is an extremely warm, uncomplicated and very hard-working host, we are completely satisfied. Thank you very much.
