Smoking

Smoking is prohibited in the Nature Resort and its accommodations due to the risk of fire. This also applies for candles, torches, etc.

There are specially designated smoking areas in front of the bathhouse and reception. Please use the ashtrays provided.

Sustainability

Tripsdrill is located in the middle of the Stromberg-Heuchelberg nature park. The preservation of the surrounding nature is particularly close to our hearts. This is why we were even more careful when building the tree houses in the Nature Resort. To avoid damaging the forest floor with concrete foundations, each tree house is supported by screw foundations that are screwed into the ground to protect the roots. Each tree house contains 14 m³ of wood - a sustainable CO² store as a contribution to climate protection. Solar collectors are also used to generate hot water, which is used to supply the bathhouse for the overnight guests in the shepherd's wagons.

Towels and bed linen

Towels and bed linen are included in the accommodation price.

Larger bath towels are available in the accommodation for guests staying in the tree house. For guests staying in a shepherd' s wagon these are available at the reception against payment of a deposit fee.

WiFi

Free WiFi is available in the tree houses and shepherd's wagons.
