FarmCamps Soodehof Eins

Herzlich Willkommen on Soodehof Eins! In the middle of the fairytale-like Reinhardswald forest in Hofgeismar stands the first German FarmCamps farm run by farmer Günther, farmer’s wife Juliane and their two sons. In less than half an hour’s drive you can reach the fairytale capital Kassel, where the Brothers Grimm wrote fairytales and legends almost 200 years ago… and the story of this nice couple would have fitted in perfectly there. Juliane has been living in the big city for years when, out of love for horses, she meets farmer Günther again at an event in her home region. Sparks fly during this visit and things immediately take off and Juliane decides to move back to Hombressen for her prince charming. With 200 hectares of arable land, 140 dairy cows, just as many young cattle and over 20 horses and ponys, Soodehof Eins is both an arable as well as a dairy and horse farm. They attach great importance to sustainability and therefore practise recycling management. For example, the cows’ excrement is fed into the biogas plant, which generates enough green electricity for the village! The manure that remains is spread on the fields as fertiliser for the plants. Some of it is then used as fodder for the cows. And so the circle closes again. Soodehof Eins is a true paradise for horse lovers. The whole family loves to ride horses themselves and therefore shares this love with their guests. So here is plenty to do with the horses and ponies here. From grooming your own pony to to taking riding lessons under the enthusiastic guidance of Juliane or one of her staff. Or would you rather go for a walk in the woods with a pony? If you have a lot of riding experience, you can even go for an outdoor ride in the beautiful woods or fields around the farm. Children can also let off steam here. There is a large playground with climbing frame, trampoline, sandpit and bird’s nest swing. Or discover the farm with the pedal tractor or play in the hay. Juliane and her staff also organise all kinds of activities, such as archery, campfire night, and if there is time then staff member Christian will take you for a tractor ride! As you can read, you won’t be bored for a single moment on this farm. For a super farm experience in beautiful surroundings in Germany, this welcoming and lovely family is the right place to be. Here, fairy tales come true. horses and
