Escape to a simpler life with Martin
Discover the Dengler Hof in the Franconian town of Hohenberg an der Eder. This typical Franconian farm with alpine farming is located in the Fichtel mountains, one of the most popular holiday regions in Bavaria and has been farmed organically for 30 years. Interested guests can experience how farmer Martin works on this land with the help of his horses. In addition to the farm's own horses and the two Shetland ponies, backwoods cattle, Shropshire sheep, chickens, rabbits, cats and dogs live on the farm. The cosy accommodations are located on a meadow with a view of the farm's own ponds.
Pure diversity in Franconia
The Fichtel Mountains and the Egertal nature reserve offer excellent hiking, cycling and mountain biking opportunities. Eger river, which is only 200 m from the farm, is ideal for canoeing. The German Porcelain Museum in Hohenberg and the weekly market in Selb are only 5 and 10 km away. The rock labyrinth Luisenburg in Wunsiedel, with Europe's oldest open-air stage and its renowned festival, can be reached in about 20 minutes. At the Ochsenkopf, 40 minutes away, a climbing park and a summer toboggan run promise fun for the whole family.
What to do at Dengler Hof
The farm's own horses and the two Shetland ponies are available for rides and carriage rides. Particularly idyllic are the ponds that are scattered around the site and are used as natural bathing ponds or for trout breeding. You can prepare the popular Franconian sausages or fresh vegetables from the region on your own wood-burning oven or outside barbecue. At the end of a special day, enjoy a good night's sleep in the comfy beds of your tent. Each tent has a toilet and an ensuite shower.
