Orange Box

The private pitch "Orange Box" is located in Kreuzau in the heart of the Rureifel and was affectionately called "Apfelsinenkiste" (orange crate) by the local farmers. In front of the namesake orange crate stands a gravel pitch for vans, pickups and roof tents, while the family-friendly garden invites you to linger. Nearby, the Dreimühlen waterfall, the historic Hindenburgtor and the Wolfsschlucht await you for an excursion. You can reach the city of Aachen in 24 kilometres.1

In front of it there is still some space on the gravel for vans, pickups and roof tents.“
