AlpacaCamping 1123

A dairy farm near Bruchhausen-Vilsen, where Highland cattle graze. From the pitch, you can watch them chewing their cud, shaggy and peaceful; at night it becomes quiet. Bettina shows the farm, anyone interested can join, and afterwards you'll know how much work goes into a carton of milk from the supermarket. Bremen is 39 kilometres away, with St. Petri Dom and the ferry to Vegesack. Plus the Weser cycle path. You'll be welcomed first by the farm dog Ari.1

What AlpacaCamping writes

„I was warmly welcomed by the farm dog Ari and by Bettina. I spent a peaceful night on the pitch with a view of the Highland cattle.“

Sights in the area1

Bremen

The Hanseatic city sits 39 kilometres away. St Petri Cathedral stands in the middle of the old town; the nicer way back is the ferry from Vegesack to Lemwerder. A rainy-day classic.

Weser Cycle Route

The path follows the Weser downstream through the marshland, flat and signposted throughout. It can be ridden in day stages without a single serious climb.

Steinhuder Meer

Lower Saxony's largest lake, shallow enough to wade in, with a beach at Steinhude and boats out to the island fortress of Wilhelmstein. A full day if the weather holds.

Bruchhausen-Vilsen Museum Railway

Germany's first museum railway runs steam trains over the old narrow-gauge line on operating days. The outing that keeps children busy in middling weather.
