Vacation in the Sauerland

It is what it is - the Sauerland feeling. Sauerland, that's the people, the nature and the landscape. It's culture and delicacies, sometimes only recognisable at second glance. The Sauerland feeling is like coming home, like being at home for a while, like being on holiday with friends.

What is the best way to describe the Sauerland? Quite apart from the fact that you should make up your own mind, let's try a few Sauerland keywords:

The landscape is characterised by diversity. Wooded mountain ranges and hilltops, glittering lakes, wide valleys with all the green shades of nature. The Sauerland has many faces.

The forest is a constant companion here. Discover the tranquillity and mystique of these large, contiguous forest areas. From wide-ranging discovery tours to relaxed circular routes, the Sauerland forests offer you a recreational experience.

Small, tranquil villages lie nestled in the landscape like little pearls. Their inhabitants are proud of spotlessly clean half-timbered houses and intact village communities.

It is called the"Land of 1,000 Mountains". As the north-eastern part of the Rhenish Slate Mountains with a total of over 2,700 elevations above 400 m, it lives up to its name. The highest elevation is the Kahle Asten near Winterberg at 841.9 m above sea level.

Natural treasures are everywhere here. The "Sauerland Rothaargebirge Nature Park" protects them and brings together rare insects, imposing bison or fast peregrine falcons in these wooded and water-rich areas.

A lively art and culture scene characterizes the Sauerland. It includes not only customs, but also exciting themes such as the largest international brass festival in Europe, works of art by renowned artists in the countryside and a fascinating museum landscape. Romanesque churches with important paintings, concerts by regional and national artists and festival highlights offer culture lovers an attractive range of things to discover!

... for those seeking peace and quiet. In the middle of Germany, less than two hours by car from the conurbations on the Ruhr, Rhine and Main, lies the destination of your search for deceleration. Your island of relaxation. Your haven of peace. A place you will want to return to again and again to recharge your batteries. Grounding - within reach.

Of course we have our favorite destinations in our home country. We would like to recommend a few of them to you here.
