Our little guests have fun with pony rides and bumper cars - both are possible directly on our hotel grounds. Shopping enthusiasts will also get their money's worth.

Families
To keep our little guests entertained, we have not only a natural children's playground on the hotel grounds, but also two additional offers. With the ponies from our pony stable, children accompanied by an adult can discover the historic pony trail. Pony riding takes place on Sundays from April to September.
There are even more animals to discover here in the Mühlental. We breed Heck cattle, which are allowed to graze outside all year round - just a stone's throw from the hotel.
For the kids who really need action, we have created a bumper car course. There our little hotel guests can try out their driving skills in mini-scooters and do laps.
