Location & Size

On the high plateau of Frath, our estate inn is situated at 736 metres above sea level with a wonderful view of the Zellertal valley and the Arberberg mountain range opposite. Even at first glance at the map, the exposed location of our estate becomes clear. Like a small island between the slopes of the Bavarian Forest, a holiday at the Gutsgasthof Frath promises peace and deceleration in nature, away from the hustle and bustle and traffic. About four kilometres outside the centre of Drachselsried, a lonely road leads up under the canopy of the beech and coniferous forest to our farm with its own restaurant. At the top, the forest thins out to a high plateau with lush meadows and fields framing our property. The centrepiece of our farm is the Lady Chapel in the orchard next to the inn, which our ancestor Nikolaus Geiger had built after he returned unharmed from the Second World War. To this day, we decorate the church for all church festivals and ring the bell on Sundays at 12 o'clock. Our family looks back on centuries of history in settling on the farm, the origins of which even go back to the first documented mention in 1300. This gave rise to today's forestry and agriculture with sustainable and environmentally conscious use, which the family expanded in the 1960s to include a guesthouse and the inn. From cosy single and double rooms to chic holiday flats at 5-star level with pine wood furnishings and balconies, holidaymakers can now choose from ten accommodation units. Optionally, they can book breakfast or half board directly and thus fully dedicate themselves to their recreation in the leisure paradise of the Bavarian Forest, which lies at our feet.

Farm experiences

I wonder what milk fresh from the cow tastes like? Our guests sit right at the source of fresh, high-quality produce. It is very important to us to give holidaymakers young and old a realistic and everyday impression of agricultural work and life on a farm. If they take home an awareness of the value of food and the species-appropriate treatment of animals, we will have achieved our goal. Cows, calves, pigs, pygmy goats, fallow deer and dog are our farm animals and pets. Because our cows are allowed to eat their fill of fresh meadow herbs every day on the pasture, holidaymakers can get very close to them when they are being driven out and in. This is a particularly exciting experience for children! They can also ride on the tractor, help with the evening feeding and even try milking directly from the cow under supervision. The milk from our cows is drunk fresh, used to feed the calves or to make our own butter.

From generations for generations

Parents and grandparents enjoy time for themselves with coffee and cake on the sun terrace, while always keeping an eye on the little ones. They can romp around the spacious grounds or get their money's worth playing on the children's playground with trampoline right outside the front door.

Delicious feasting and enjoyment in Bavarian style

In our traditional inn, we spoil our guests with traditional Bavarian cuisine. Due to the organic and sustainable management of our farm, only the highest quality meat, sausage and milk products from our own production are served. On the varied menu you will find meat from our own farm, game dishes from our own hunt, hearty snacks as well as old Bavarian pastries and homemade cakes, all prepared on the tried and tested wood-burning oven. Inside, the cosy parlour seats 50, and when the weather is nice, guests can let the sun shine on their faces on the open-air terrace and enjoy the view while savouring our homemade cakes. In the evening, holidaymakers are all to themselves, because that's when the kitchen is open exclusively for them.

Highlights in the surroundings

Our house is the ideal starting point for wonderful Bavarian Forest hikes and mountain bike tours. The large Arber mountain virtually beckons us from the other side of the valley and beckons us to take a challenging hiking tour. In between, the Zellertal valley awaits with numerous cultural monuments and natural beauties, such as the Hochfall waterfall, under which a wooden bridge leads, or the Rißloch waterfalls, both reachable within 15 minutes by car from the Gutsgasthof Frath. The hiking area "Bavarian Canada" with beautiful hiking trails along the Black Rain is also only a stone's throw away. After an extensive day of hiking, you can refresh your tired legs in the farm's own Kneipp pool. You can also refresh yourself in the natural swimming pond in Drachselsried or in the nearby open-air and indoor swimming pools. 

Winter in the Bavarian Forest

The cross-country skiing and winter hiking area Frath starts directly at our car park. During a winter walk or curling you can really enjoy the Bavarian Forest winter. Great fun for children and adults is tobogganing on our natural toboggan run right outside our front door.
