There are 10-15 tent sites depending on the size of the tents. The tent and hammock area is open from May to October, weather permitting. Please note that you cannot reserve a site via our website if the booking and arrival date are the same, online reservations must be made at least 1 day in advance. If you are arriving today, please confirm availability by calling 041 436 1790.

In the almost natural tent area, you feel like you are in the middle of the forest, even though the services are only a hundred meters away. It is easy to come here with small children to practice camping, or at the beginning of a longer hiking trip to prepare for departure, or to take a breather before returning home. For example, for the Pogosta tour (91km), you can leave your car in our parking area.

Note, any kind of open fire in the camping area is strictly prohibited. There are two separate campfire sites behind the main building for making an open fire. A campfire or other open fire may never be lit if the surrounding conditions, due to drought, wind or other reasons, are such that there is an obvious risk of a forest fire, grass fire or other fire - do not light it!

The price includes a tent site, use of toilets, showers, cooking facilities and a campfire site. From the beginning of June to the end of August, there is also a general sauna shift in the electric saunas in the main building from 7-9 pm. Separate saunas for women and men. (schedule changes possible).
You can also book a family sauna shift in the wood-heated beach sauna for an additional fee. You can find the beach sauna booking calendar on the services page.
