A weekend in the Wildwest of the Blackforest


Early Summer this year, we were invited to a weekend of get-away. It promises a world of fun and fantasy, good food and music, marvellous company and chance to gaze upon the stars. Yup! A weekend when we were allowed to play dress-up and be kids once again, that alone makes us want to whoope for joy!

We have the options of either spending the nights like "real" Red Indians do: in Wigwams, roughly camping out in the fields, or take up lodgings like the cowboys. We picked the Buffalo Bill hut, a delight little house with a double decker bed for 4. I do admit we were a bit spoilt for modern amenities, but hey! We were here to enjoy ourselves, so no need for the usual "roughing out will build your character" kind of rubbish! :-)


Wigwams for roughing out..
..perfect to squeeze in 4 person in a go.

This surprising little piece of Wild West, simply named Tipidorf, is tucked up snuggly in the Blackforest in a town called Saudorf. Just by being here, makes you feel that you've landed on an entirely different planet!












I absolutely loved the details!


Try your luck in the Gold Rush 

The Buffalo Bill Hut

The little red indian and cowboy doing a freedom song

Bonfire to counter the chilly evening air

For any one who wants to take a horse out
for a ride

For less than 2€ you get to take a walk into
the Spiritual world of the red indians

For the macabre few..

Antlers Guard Station are like forrest cabins,
traditionally used by firemen 

We absolutely loved it! A huge cheer to our friend who have thought of this wonderful location and a most unusual way to celebrate his 40th Birthday!!
