Hosts in possession of the "Vacation on the Farm" quality marker are active farmers. On these farms, you can experience fascinating farm life and work from up-close.
You can look over the farmer’s shoulder as he does his work on the farm, and together with the whole family, you can learn things about the plants and animals on a farm. Those of you who want an active vacation can help with work on the farm or in the field.
If you are just looking for rejuvenation, our hosts with the “Rural vacation” quality marker offer holiday accommodations in stately country houses, fine country hotels, former agricultural enterprises or historical buildings and old property and manor houses

Let yourself have a unique experience of the countryside with special charms! Awaiting you are hosts who will personally attend to your well-being and who are familiar with the needs of their guests. In order to grant your wishes, the hosts often offer holiday programs rich in ideas in cooperation with their neighbors, restaurant owners/ barkeepers, crafts enterprises or cultural and recreational facilities.
For children, playful encounters with agriculture, such as a corn maze, will stimulate their childlike thirst for knowledge. And it will also give an astounding amount of new information for parents or interested parties – the production of bread and cheese, a visit to a farm museum, an herb garden nature trail, or with the artistic painting of Easter eggs.
In addition, you can get to know the restaurants, or the land and the people on extended regional hikes. From Watt to the Alpine meadows, each landscape has its own attractions. Customs and dialects are parts of rural tradition which you shouldn’t miss!
