The Archery Courses of our Region are special!
The courses of the Bogenregion are located in a very scenic area in the border triangle of Bavaria, Hesse and Baden-Wuerttemberg. A large part of the courses is located in Mainfranken, which offers ideal scenery for the installation of archery courses due to the many river valleys, meadows, hilly areas and forests. Our courses are unique! This makes archery on our courses a very varied, relaxing and natural experience.
Your visit to our 3D Archery Courses
In order to shoot on our archery courses, you basically need your own bow equipment. However, there is also the possibility to rent a bow equipment at different providers/courses or even to take part in an archery course.
