Urlaub in der Natur - auf einem Öko-Bauernhof im National Park Waldai. In einem kleinen, gemütlichen Blockhaus mit Blick auf Wald und Sonnenuntergang. The space For lovers of forest walks, mushroom pickers and avid fishermen, for romantics and seekers of the meaning of life, overworked managers and just for those who love and understand Russia. Relax in nature in an ecological peasant farm on the territory of the Valdai National Park! Valdai is a place of amazing beauty and power! The purest lakes, the most beautiful untouched forests, churches and monasteries, holy and healing springs. In summer, these places are perfect for forest walks for berries and mushrooms, fishing and swimming. In winter, you can ski and walk in valenki in the woods. Or you can just sit on the veranda, admire the sunset, listen to the voices of playing lambs, read a book (by the way, the house has a good library). There is a grocery store in the village. And we can offer you eggs from our home-grown chickens, as well as delicious cheese of our own production. The purest water from our own well. If you wish, you can heat a Russian bath (extra charge). It is easy to get to us – only 20 km from the station, where the Sapsans St. Petersburg – Moscow stop (and not only the Sapsans). The Valdai Heights are the watershed between the Baltic Sea and the Caspian Sea, in the middle between St. Petersburg and Moscow, not far from the old trading city of Novgorod. Mittendrin, im Waldai-Nationalpark, liegt unser kleiner Öko-Hof und das Gästehaus am Rande eines 20-Seelen-Dorfes. Auf dem abgelegenen Hof leben über 30 Schafe, 30 Hühner, vier Katzen, eine altdeutsche Schäferhündin, ein Hovawart und zwei deutschsprechende Menschen. In summer under the high Russian sky of the White Nights, in winter surrounded by frozen lakes and deep snow-covered forests, where the ski trails have yet to be laid. Wer will, kann auf dem Hof mithelfen, oder auch im See Angeln oder Baden, mit Waldwanderungen die Wälder und Sümpfe der Elche und Bären drumherum erkunden, Tagesausflüge zu russisch-orthodoxen Klöstern und kleinen Provinzstädtchen machen oder die alte Hansestadt Novgorod besuchen. St. Petersburg or Moscow are easily accessible by train in a few hours. Im Winter sind Ski-Langlauf, Eisangeln und Glühweinabende am warmen Ofen angesagt. Ein kleines Lebensmittelgeschäft ist im Dorf. Sie können aber auch Eier, Käse oder Lammfleisch vom eigenen Hof - und vieles mehr - geniessen. Auf Wunsch wird die Banja (Russian Sauna) angeheizt. We are easy to reach: only 20 km from a train station, where even the Sapsan intercity trains on the route from Petersburg to Moscow stop.
