Venue & Practicalities
Our Home
Touch&Play Cologne takes place in seminar house “Auszeit Eifel” in Gemünd, about 70 km south-west of Cologne. It’s not too far from the Dutch and Belgium borders. The Venue is located on a hill overviewing the valley and behind it you walk straight into the Eifel National Park with over 110 km² of forest and open country.
COMMON SPACES
The venue is equiped with a large private outdoor area where we can sunbathe naked, enjoy the sauna & jacuzzi, have bonfires & roll in the grass.
Inside we have various common areas for hanging out, eating, cuddling, etc. Large seminar rooms provide privacy for Intensives, Classes, Rituals & Love Spaces.
The schoolbuilding is transformed by the helpers and team into an inviting playground in the days prior to the event.
ACCOMODATIONS
The accommodation consists mainly of spacious dormitory rooms (8-10 beds) with big windows and nice views. It’s also possible to book shared rooms containing 4 bunkbeds or to sleep in your own tent or van. There are plenty shared bathrooms & showers.
In addition we offer three luxurious apartments with private bathrooms & kitchenettes for small families or couples/friends.
GETTING THERE
Haus Auszeit Gemund, Eifel, 53937
The location can be reached by car from Cologne within one hour (we highly encourage ride share!) or with public transport by train and bus.

Nourishing Meals
The kitchen team is led by Maya. She cooks amazing fusion food and will prepare a delicious brunch, dinner & 24 hour snack corner with her sous-chef and helpers.
Maya is happy to have some deep conversations about relating and hopefully we'll see her on the dancefloor, because she is a delight in movement and CI too.
We will have fresh, mostly organic & local vegan/vegetarian meals and plenty of snacks
