Sehr schön angelegt, strukturiert und übersichtlich. Kurze Wege alles in Ordnung.
Knaus Campingpark Eschwege *****
General information
Five-star campsite on Lake Werratal
Knaus Campingpark Eschwege on a headland between the Werra Valley Lake and the River Werra is a perfect place to recuperate. The camping pitches are superb and offer wonderful views of the mountains. The toilet facilities are also excellent. This campsite doesn't have five stars for nothing!Lovely lake Werretal
Knaus Campingpark Eschwege is right on the banks of Lake Werretal. You can go for lovely boating trips from the south bank of the lake. Feel like taking a dip in the water? Then you can go to the eastern part of the lake. You could also go swimming in Lake Meinhard nearby, or in the indoor pool in the centre of Eschwege.Fun for kids
Colouring, climbing, playing Skippy ball, or a life size version of 'four in a row': children will amuse themselves the whole day in the play tent and in the playground! Other extra amenities nearby the campsite include a mobile home washing station, car rental and a health club (entrance fee not included).Romantic medieval Eschwege
The idyllic town of Eschwege is just a five-minute walk away. You won't believe your eyes in the centre of this town! The medieval centre looks very romantic. Moreover the town sits at the foot of a hill which is very good for walking, or, if you are a bit more sportive, Nordic walking.Beautiful walking in the Thüringer Wald forest
Kassel and the university town of Göttingen are within easy reach by car. The famous Thüringer Wald forest is also close by, a lovely woodland walk which is well worth the effort!

Insgesamt schöner Campingplatz. Super Anbindung zum Ort Eschwege. Schade ist, dass die Sanitäranlagen nur mit einem Art Sicherheitschip zugänglich sind. Für eine 4-köpfige Familie sehr unpraktisch, auch wenn uns die Beweggründe hierfür durchaus einleuchten. Bei voller Auslastung wahrscheinlich etwas zu wenige Duschen. Infos zu möglichem Freizeitangebot nur bedingt aktuell.
