🏢 About the local organisation
If you like pure nature, lakes and forests, you should go to Eichhof. The nearby lake invites you to try out swimming, boating or fishing. The diverse flora and fauna of the nature reserve can be explored on trekking or bike tours.
The Eichhof used to be a holiday resort in the former GDR. After its almost complete destruction it was bought and has been rebuilt 19 years ago. Simple bungalows were built for families, children, youth and seminar groups that want to live in the nature but cannot afford to pay a lot for it. The buildings and the whole farm area need constant maintenance and care.
