Where there's a sweeping curve in the river Wümme

In wooded surroundings on the outskirts of Rotenburg, this is a fantastic place for holidays, meetings and sports. Families will love the child-friendly offers, while groups of young people will be impressed by the huge outdoor area and our disco. There's even more variety thanks to the nearby town on the river Wümme, which probably got its name from the "Rote Burg" castle, built way back in 1195. And don't forget the scenery, which is dominated by the rivers Rodau, Wiedau and Wümme and popular with those looking to unwind. The Wümme Cycle Route is perfect for bike rides, and "Ronolulu" aqua park is a hit with guests young and old.
