Our camp is the perfect place to try out some fun and new outdoor activities. Hop into a canoe or kayak, scale the climbing wall or get creative – children and teenagers from all over the globe come together to share in the same Camp spirit.
The list of activities on offer is endless. From archery, climbing, mountain biking, football, baseball, volleyball, street hockey, frisbee, crazy golf, table tennis, aerobics, self defence and fitness, all the way to creative offers such as Bob the Builder, guitar playing, theatre, dance, acrobatics and MasterChef. There is something for everyone in Regen. We also spend our afternoons at the close by swimming pool also featuring waterslides and beach volleyball courts. For the real adventurers, our massive climbing wall build in the wide span of a bridge is the place to be. It certainly requires some bravery, but it's so much fun! To start with, you might only get a few metres off the ground but by the end of the week you will be able to make it to the summit. There is plenty going on in the evenings too. Our legendary Mini Olympics are always a high light, along with the discos and evenings spent together around the camp fire.
On Wednesdays, everyone heads into the typical Bavarian town of Regen. A good chance to collect a selection of Bavarian souvenirs to take home. Alternatively you can also explore the wildlife in the national park nearby.
The weekend hike is the icing of the cake for all campers staying for two weeks or longer. Navigate through forests and mountains, set up a shelter in the wild and cook your own dinner, before settling down to sleep under the stars.
English Classic
Improve your language skills in a fun way by attending our interactive Classic Courses. They are designed to match your holidays. Nevertheless, they are intense and efficient. Our teachers put a strong focus on oral practice and make sure that you build up your confidence and improve your communication skills in a playful way and without even noticing. You will breathe new vocabulary and internalize the right pronunciation by using the language and not by memorizing boring work sheets. At camp, you will always be around our English speaking staff, who encourage you to put your language skills in practice inside and outside the classroom. Attending camp will give you a boost of self-confidence and fresh motivation for your English lessons at school. Promised!
English TOEFL®
Apart from our Classic Courses we also offer two-week TOEFL® Courses. The Test Of English as a Foreign Language is the most widely respected English language test in the world. At the end of the course you will take an exam to achieve the TOEFL® certificate. The great thing is that you can’t fail the test. It just measures your ability to use and understand English as it’s read, written, heard and spoken according to the CEFR – the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (A1 to C2). Attending this special course is definitely worth it as you will receive a certificate that not only proves your level of English but is also accepted at schools worldwide in case you consider to spend a school year abroad.
Attending the TOEFL® Course means that you will benefit from 10 additional units on top of your 40 hours of classic English tuition. During those additional lessons, we focus on grammar exercises and practice important parts of the exam such as reading and listening comprehension and we will also use sample tests to get you well prepared for the exam.

All together we will spend the mornings in the skate park right next to our Adventure Camp. You can show each other the best tricks. Shoot cool clips with your peers and watch later what you have learned. Of course, you will be supervised by our teamers, who all have first aid training. Because we care about your safety, helmets are compulsory when skating. Additional protective equipment such as knee and elbow pads and wrist guards are recommended, especially for beginners. Skateboards and scooters can be rented on site for a fee of 50 €. Please bring your own protective equipment and inline skates if you want to use them.

Depending on how far you are already you can take the exam for the swimming badge in bronze or silver, at the end of the week.
