Brochures, flyers and maps

Our free brochures and flyers provide detailed information about hiking trails, cycling tours, attractions and places to stop for refreshments. A special pocket-sized leisure map concisely presents the highlights of our landmarks and day-trip suggestions.  Our hosts also introduce themselves in the host directory.
