Welcome to Ferienpark Arber
Your home in the Bavarian Forest: warm, down-to-earth and surrounded by nature, in summer and in winter.
Ferienpark Arber is on the edge of Zwiesel, a glass-making town known for its clean air (Waldesruhweg 34, 94227 Zwiesel, Germany). The town is surrounded by the Falkenstein, Rachel and Hennenkobel mountains, and the Bavarian Forest National Park starts right on your doorstep. The park is run by a Dutch-German team and offers high Bavarian quality in a friendly, relaxed atmosphere. It’s a place for peace and quiet, fresh mountain air and cosy chalets, and a great base for both relaxing and exploring.
Accommodation
Ferienpark Arber offers two types of chalets, each with authentic, rustic charm at a fair price. The Comfort chalets are cosy and practical, made for a relaxed stay in nature. The Family chalets are a little more spacious, with extra room for families. All chalets include free Wi-Fi, and dogs are welcome on a lead.
