Orchards near distillery and vaulted cellar
A listed farmstead on the edge of Messerich, in the heart of the South Eifel. Dexter suckler cows graze on the surrounding orchards, with a couple of Shropshire sheep in between. Those interested can take a tour through the family-run fruit distillery and sample the spirits and liqueurs. Walks start from the meadow between fields and forests, heading towards Bitburg and Nimstal. When it rains, the ground becomes soft. Solid alternative pitches are then available.1

Sights in the area1
Trier
Germany's oldest city, about 22 km away: the Porta Nigra, the amphitheatre and the Roman trail lead through antiquity. The day trip when you want culture and some shade.
Teufelsschlucht gorge, Südeifel Nature Park
Narrow rock clefts and mossy walls, with well-marked loop trails from the hikers' car park. The outing for hot days, because it stays cool between the cliffs.
Echternach
The old abbey town across the Sauer in Luxembourg, with its basilica and market square. An afternoon covers the old town; the way there runs through the border valleys.
