Bavaria's youth hostels open doors for four-legged holiday fun!
In Bavaria, a new youth hostel regulation is attracting many dog and nature lovers. Dogs are now welcome as guests in 16 of a total of 47 youth hostels. This decision is due to the increasing desires of travelers who would like to take their four-legged friends with them on vacation, like the South German newspaper reported.
The dog-friendly youth hostels have adapted to the needs of travelers with animals and offer not only spacious rooms, but also large outdoor areas with direct access to nature. This makes the holiday a special experience for dogs and humans, where exciting adventures can be shared and the bond with the animal can be deepened, according to the information from Jugendherberge.de.
What do you have to consider?
However, there are a few important points to consider for a relaxed trip with your dog. Before booking, you should definitely check whether a suitable room is available for your dog. It is important to register the dogs in advance because usually only one dog is allowed per room and the number of dog rooms is limited. There is also a small surcharge per dog, and if you want to travel with your dog, you will need valid dog liability insurance, which must be proven, as well as a rabies vaccination for foreign dogs.
Packing for the dog
To ensure that your four-legged friend is prepared for everything, there is a practical checklist for your dog's luggage:
- Halsband und Leine
- Hundebeutel
- Näpfe für Futter und Trinken
- Hundefutter
- Kuscheldecke oder Körbchen
- Lieblingsspielzeug
- Reisenapf für längere Spaziergänge
- Hundehandtuch
- Impfpass oder EU-Heimtierausweis
Guests are also responsible for any damage or disruption their dog may cause and leashes are required throughout the property. This ensures that both the dogs and the other guests in the youth hostel can spend a relaxing time.
The atmosphere in these homes is child-friendly and relaxed, making them ideal retreats for families and dog lovers. The @Hundeerlaubt.de® platform also offers a collection of dog-friendly accommodations and leisure activities for dog-loving holidaymakers. Whether camping, holiday homes or dog-friendly holiday apartments - there is something for every taste, which proves that holidays with dogs are very popular in Bavaria.
