Additional on-site services include a propane gas station, kiosk, and cooling element rental for chilled storage. For families, the expansive grounds translate into excellent outdoor play options, including a large playground, table tennis, volleyball, badminton, basketball, and football fields, along with a campfire and grilling area where evenings around the fire become treasured memories.

The campsite’s location and design make it uniquely suitable for both family camping holidays and individual nature retreats, with plenty of open space for children to roam safely and for adults to unwind surrounded by Eifel’s scenic beauty.
