Pitch Cowgirls

A parking spot at the Kuhweide near Herscheid, in the hamlet of Sirrin: seven residential houses, surrounded by forest and pasture, with a wide view across the hills. The barn is just a few metres away; in the morning you hear the animals before anything else happens. If you like, you can help drive the cattle in, collect eggs or spend time with the calves. You'll be shown to your spot by tractor. Fresh water is available in abundance; everything else comes from your own vehicle. It's a good half hour through the Sauerland to Biggesee, and less to Nordhelle near Meinerzhagen.1

What VanSite writes

„This pitch is located right next to our cow pasture with a beautiful far view. Our cows have their stable only a few meters away. The village Sirrin counts seven houses and is surrounded by woods and pastures.“

Sights in the area1

Biggesee

Reservoir in the Olpe district with sailing, pedal boats and small swimming bays; about half an hour's drive through the Sauerland and the fallback for hot days.

Nordhelle

Ridge in the Ebbegebirge near Meinerzhagen, marked by its transmitter tower. Trails run along the crest, and westerly winds bring out the paragliders.

Hagen

The nearest larger town, roughly 23 kilometres away. Its open-air museum keeps old workshops running down in the valley, the rainy-day standby of the area.

Kahler Asten

One of the highest peaks in North Rhine-Westphalia, further east in the Hochsauerland. Snow lingers longer up there, and the river Lenne rises below.
