Pure nature - camping together with the heidschnucken
A quiet meadow on the outskirts of Wachendorf near Mechernich, at the foot of the northern Eifel. The view stretches across the pasture where white horned Heath sheep graze outdoors year-round. In the evening, a fire burns. Then it becomes quiet. The farm is a listed monument, a traditional square courtyard farm where a workshop manufactures hand-tuned wind chimes. The hosts built the sauna themselves from clay, heated with a wood-burning stove. 800 meters further stands the Bruder Klaus Field Chapel, already visible from the site.1

Sights in the area1
Bruder Klaus Field Chapel
The narrow concrete chapel by architect Peter Zumthor stands alone in the fields 800 metres away; the short walk out to it is worth it in any weather.
Satzvey Castle
Five kilometres away, known for its jousting tournaments and medieval markets — the outing that saves the afternoon, above all for children.
Kommern Open-Air Museum
Historic farmhouses and workshops of the Eifel, rebuilt about thirteen kilometres away; the region's classic rainy-day option.
Bad Münstereifel
A historic old town with town wall and gates, just under four kilometres away; today an outlet centre sits in the old timber-framed houses.
