The campsite was already accessible at the end of March. A simple (permanent) site with enough space for a tent and bike. The sanitary facilities are simple and absolutely clean. A fair price.

Summer 2024: After the rains of the past few months, Lake Oehlen is back. It is not quite as full as it was 10 years ago, but there is so much water that you can call it a lake again with a clear conscience. Hopefully it will stay with us...

Pure nature on the big sea, a rustic place for a break, but quite overgrown.

Simple and uncomplicated campsite in the immediate vicinity of the Hunte and Huntesee. For tenters there is a really big tent meadow. The registration/reception is not directly on site! This takes place in the nearby Jockel's Pinte or one of the adjacent courtyards; about 500 meters away via a dirt road.
