Family holidays on farms: experience adventure and nature!

Farm holidays are very popular in Germany, especially among families with children. This type of holiday not only offers relaxation, but also promotes children's closeness to nature. A variety of farms present themselves as ideal destinations offering a variety of activities and programs for families.

Some farms focus specifically on younger children and offer appropriate adventure programs. These are often referred to as children's or adventure farms and allow little guests to get to know the rural lifestyle in an exciting way.

Adventure farms for the whole family

An outstanding example is the Wilmersdorf children's farm in the Black Forest, where guests have the opportunity to feed animals every day. Here the children can also actively participate in the stable work and groom the cows. Horse lovers will get their money's worth with pony riding.

Another highlight is the Eibtaler Hof organic adventure farm in Bavaria, which offers numerous activities for both young and old. From Segway and quad riding to vintage tractor taxis and the Flying Fox – there is something for everyone here.

The Upper Palatinate Lake District also has an exciting offering with the Doll organic adventure farm. On 140 hectares of active organic farming, children can learn about twelve different farm animal species. The opportunity to sleep in the hay, ride a horse, canoe and drive a tractor further enriches the experience.

The organic Hotel Stanglwirt in Tyrol combines luxury and rural life. Here the children can use an entire farm as a play area, which makes the holiday experience particularly unique.
