Camping in Rhineland Palatinate

POD 'Fuchsbau'

Germany-55765 Elchweiler
The heated glamping pods 'Dachsbau' (Badger's Den) and 'Fuchsbau' (Fox's Den), each accommodating up to 2 guests, are set in a secluded part of the Alte Schule garden, surrounded by lush trees and bushes. The Alte Schule enjoys a peaceful, isolated location outside the village. Clear skies offer breathtaking views of the starry night sky. The pods share a camp-style kitchen located in the garage (approx. 20 m away) as well as a shower and toilet in the main house (approx. 60 m away). The garden sauna and BBQ area are located in another part of the grounds. Come find your favorite spot! Wonderful cycling and hiking trails await you in the surrounding area, and a tranquil National Park is just a stone's throw away. By the way, out here where nature is truly at your doorstep, it's not just the fox and badger saying goodnight—you might also encounter hares, roe deer, pheasants, wildcats, and bats! We can't wait to hear which ones you'll spot!

We are nestled in the 'Hunsrück' low mountain range, a region that is both a National Park and a gemstone paradise. A direct road leads you right to the Old School, where you can park on-site. Immediately surrounding the PODs, you'll discover meadows and fields that seamlessly transition into enchanting forests. Fantastic hiking trails beckon you to explore! It's just 5 km to the 'Nahe', the largest river in our area, and about 20 km to two beautiful lakes perfect for swimming in the summer. Nothing stands in the way of wonderful excursions into nature here... whether on foot, by bike, car, or public transport, almost anything is possible!

From your PODs, you can directly embark on biking, hiking, and wildlife watching adventures. For instance, you can spot storks just about 400 meters away! For water enthusiasts, paddling on the 'Glan' river is a fantastic option, approximately a 30-minute drive. If you're into rock climbing, thrilling spots are also reachable within about 30 minutes by car. Fishing is available at various locations, about a 15-minute drive away, with the appropriate permit and a locally purchased ticket. And for a refreshing dip, two beautiful swimming lakes are just about 20 minutes away by car.

On the Erbeskopf, the highest mountain in Rhineland-Palatinate, downhill and cross-country skiing are available whenever weather conditions permit. When there is enough snow, you can go sledding right by the Alte Schule. The sauna is at least as wonderful in winter as it is in summer, and a winter barbecue is an experience not to be missed.
