About this location

Alpakahof am Apfelwald - An animal-friendly, nature-oriented pleasure for young and old.
Nestled between Galgenberg, Picho, Kapellenberg and Tschelentsy on both sides of the "Long Water", our alpaca farm at the apple forest is located on the outskirts of Dretschen. Thanks to its central location in the middle of the beautiful Bautzen Oberland, nature and city explorers alike get their money's worth. We also have a small selection of delicacies and wines for you. You can use our kitchen, sauna, playground and grill, there is a dry toilet, seating and a fireplace. A shower and USB charging stations are also available.
You are welcome to set up your tent on a platform in our orchard or your VAN close to the road in the shade of our old apple trees.
From hiking to city trips, everything is possible in our area, or you can simply relax and unwind at a cozy evening by the campfire and listen to the animals' concert.
Visit our alpacas in their enclosure - petting is allowed. Explore the area, go bouldering or take a day trip to Dresden. If required, we will be happy to provide you with bread rolls in the morning so that you can start your adventure well-nourished.
We warmly welcome you!

Perfect for...

Families, nature lovers, individualists, cyclists

As a passionate cyclist travelling across Europe, I have increasingly shifted my focus to sustainable circular systems and am now devoting myself to self-sufficiency systems and the construction of tiny houses. Together with my wife, our children, cats and alpacas, we are building our farm using permaculture and biodynamic principles.
