Your vacation program:
The tourist attractions described in various guides turn the vacation village Dürrwies (and your apartment in the House ‘Siebenschläfer’) into a special vacation destination in the biggest woodland in Europe. Starting from your house or from other nice points in the village, you can set off for hiking in the low mountain range. You can gather many experiences in the glassblowing centers and museums. A ship ride on the Danube can also be listed in your vacation entertainment program, as well as animal watching, festivals or excursions in the neighbouring Czech Republic. There are many diverse restaurants. The Bavarian Wood offers many possibilities for your winter activities: lifts, starts and cross country skiing runs and Alpine slopes. Your next skiing region is 'Geißkopf' belonging to Bischofsmais. Arber is also favoured by sport enthusiasts. The romantic ambient of your small ‚nest’ is unique regardless the season.
History and surroundings:
Rarely are you closer to nature than in Dürrwies. Rarely do you get the chance to live in such a rustic environment. We often hear from our guests that they have never slept better than how they slept here. About the house “Siebenschläfer“: it used to be a farmhouse from 1831, in Rechertsried. In the 60s, it was reconstructed log for log in the wood area of the baron of Detten, as a part of the special vacation village. The old aspect of the house was preserved. A new comfort standard was attached to it so that the guests can feel good. Located at 750 - 800 m, the vacation paradise offers an ideal change in the landscape of the low mountain range (with heights between 1000 and 1400 m). In 2007, the wood vacation village celebrates its 45th birthday.
