THE PLACE

Zeltwiesen under fruit trees with flexible pitches

There are two open tent meadows where guests choose their own spot—there are no fixed, assigned pitches—so you can pick a nook beneath the orchard. Modern sanitary facilities and included Wi‑Fi keep the campground comfortable for families and extended stays.

EATS & GEAR

On-site Almgastronomie and a bike shop

An Almgastronomie on the property provides breakfast service and evening provisioning, while an on-site bike shop supports cyclists who want to ride the surrounding roads and trails.

THE OUTDOORS

Immediate access to family activities and trailheads

From the campsite you can step straight onto local hiking and mountain‑bike routes, and nearby attractions include a summerrodelbahn, a climbing forest and a playground—options that keep days outdoors varied and active.

What the day feels like

How three nights feel

Arrive, choose a spot on one of the two orchard meadows and settle in: modern sanitary blocks and Wi‑Fi make the simple site feel cared for. Days are for riding, hiking or taking the family to the summerrodelbahn and Kletterwald; evenings can be spent at the Almgastronomie where breakfast service is available for early starts. Over three nights the site functions as a practical, low‑friction base for outdoor-focused days in the Tegernseer Tal.

Suitability

Who it's for

Who this three‑night stay suits—and who should look elsewhere.

1
Active familiesA practical match: children up to 15 stay free and the site is close to family attractions like the summerrodelbahn and playground, making short stays economical and activity‑rich.
2
Cyclists and mountain bikersIdeal for riders—an on‑site bike shop plus direct access to rides and trails make it easy to turn the campsite into a hub for two‑wheel days.
3
Event attendeesUseful for athletes and participants, but note that special events (Tegernsee Triathlon, Giro Bavarese) come with restricted booking windows designed to prioritize participants—plan and register through the event organizers.
4
Accessibility-minded travelersThe site offers barrier‑free sanitary facilities and a washer/dryer room for added comfort, making short family stays more manageable for those who need accessible amenities.
