Learn English at a lakeside holiday camp: International English camp with an outdoor programme in Schleswig-Holstein

Learn English, go on adventures and make new friends – surrounded by the natural beauty of Schleswig-Holstein. Our English camp in Mölln, which we organise in partnership with the DJH (German Youth Hostel Association), transforms the youth hostel on Lake Ziegelsee into a little ‘Little England’. You’ll hear English spoken everywhere: on the sports field, during team challenges, round the campfire or whilst taking part in exciting outdoor activities.

It’s not about dry lessons, but about experiencing the language in a completely natural way. Native-speaking team leaders from various countries will guide you through the day, bringing their culture, games and stories to the camp. This way, you’ll quickly lose your shyness about the foreign language and speak English quite naturally in everyday life.

Set amongst woods, lakes and vast outdoor spaces, a week full of action, creativity and shared experiences awaits you – from pedal boat trips and team games to relaxed evenings by the campfire. A holiday camp that perfectly combines language, nature and adventure.

  • An idyllic setting in Schleswig-Holstein’s Lake District – surrounded by woods and lakes near the charming town of Mölln
  • A fun approach to learning English with 20 lessons combined with games, challenges and everyday communication
  • A varied programme of outdoor and sporting activities, including team challenges, creative arts and crafts, sports games and a mini-golf tournament
  • Guided pedal boat tour across calm waters – discover the lake landscape around the camp from the water
  • Typical camp evenings with group games, shared reflection sessions and relaxed get-togethers
  • Activities that change daily, such as morning sports, free sports projects and creative workshops
  • Digital detox concept: “Log off, get outside!” – limited mobile phone use for more time in nature, genuine interactions and shared camp moments
  • International camp atmosphere and personalised support from experienced Camp Adventure team members

The English camp takes place at the Mölln Youth Hostel on Lake Ziegelsee – nestled in the idyllic lake landscape of Schleswig-Holstein. Surrounded by woodland and just a few minutes’ walk from the water, the location offers the perfect setting for an active holiday camp in the countryside. The peaceful setting ensures that children and young people can quickly leave their everyday lives behind and fully immerse themselves in the camp experience.

The youth hostel’s spacious outdoor grounds offer plenty of room for exercise, games and group activities. Sports facilities, table tennis tables, a basketball hoop and a sand volleyball court are available for various sports activities. A campfire site and cosy communal areas also invite everyone to round off the day together. The combination of nature, physical activity and a relaxed camp atmosphere makes Mölln an ideal location for an English camp with an adventure twist.

    At the English camp in Mölln, you can look forward to a week full of fun, exercise and that international camp atmosphere – and you’ll improve your English along the way. Instead of traditional classroom lessons, you’ll immerse yourself in the language through play. Our English-speaking team members speak English with you all day long, so you’ll automatically pick up new words and phrases in everyday situations and become increasingly confident in speaking.

    If you’d like, you can start the day actively with Morning Sports. You can kick off the day with yoga, a short jog or other fitness exercises, for example. Participation is, of course, voluntary – anyone who’d rather sleep in a bit longer can simply stay in bed.

    In the morning, our English Classic courses take place in small, manageable groups – always led by qualified language teachers who’ll meet you at your current level. To begin with, you’ll take a short placement test so that you can learn at exactly the right level for you. Then we get straight down to business: lots of speaking, playing games together, interactive activities and real-life situations.
    Over a total of 20 teaching units, you’ll consolidate and expand your vocabulary, grammar and pronunciation – without any of that school-like atmosphere, but with fun, exercise and real conversations.

    After lunch and a short siesta, the programme continues with a variety of activities. Now it’s time for team challenges, sports games and creative workshops. You can look forward, for example, to team-building challenges, classic games such as Capture the Flag or ‘Pimp my Teamer’, creative arts and crafts like making bracelets or jewellery, painting and craft projects, as well as many other group activities. A particular highlight is the guided pedal boat tour, where you and your group explore the lake landscape around Mölln from the water. Small tournaments, group games and spontaneous outdoor games also ensure there’s always something new to do in everyday camp life.

    In the evening, the whole camp comes together. Through group games, small shows or relaxed get-togethers with your group, you’ll round off the day and experience those typical camp moments that often stay with you for a long time. This is how daily camp life in Mölln unfolds – full of activity, camaraderie and real-life English.

      Well looked after – from the first to the last day of camp

      During the English camp in Mölln, you’ll be looked after round the clock by our experienced camp team. Our team members come from different countries and bring their language, culture and personality to the camp. Many of them are native speakers, so English becomes a natural part of everyday camp life – whether through games, activities, sport or simply chatting with one another.

      Our camp leaders are always there for you and will support you with any questions or challenges you face at camp. Every camper has designated points of contact within the team who are available at all times. Our staff-to-camper ratio is between 1:5 and 1:9.

      All team members are carefully selected, specially trained for our camps, hold a valid certificate of good conduct and work in accordance with our safety policy. This ensures that you can feel safe and well looked after at all times during your stay at the camp.

      But camp isn’t just about action and adventure; it’s also about personal experiences. Our team members support you not only during activities but also in everyday life – for example, during the evening debrief or when it’s time to wind down. At the same time, we give you the space to try new things, overcome challenges and grow together as a group. Small hurdles are sometimes part of the experience – just as much as finding solutions together, supporting one another and enjoying many moments of success.

      Step by step, this helps you develop new skills, build self-confidence and form genuine friendships. Many campers take home not only wonderful memories from the camp, but also the feeling of having surpassed their own expectations.

      At our camp, the motto is: No drugs, no alcohol – just fun! Our digital detox approach ensures that mobile phones are only used at specific times. We deliberately spend most of the day together – enjoying activities, conversations and genuine camp moments.
