Camp starts on Sunday at 4 pm: arrive, move into the cabin, meet everyone. From Monday to Friday each day follows the same pattern, with shared meals, time as a group and the afternoon at the cable park. On Saturday everyone packs up and leaves by noon.
Wakeboarding and water-skiing on Lift 1 and Lift 2, for beginners and experienced riders alike. Everyone rides together during public sessions, and the coaches help each camper with their next step. The lift pass is valid from Monday to Friday.
Living at camp
Since 2017 the camp has stayed in wooden cabins right by the lake. Campers sleep in four-bed rooms, girls and boys separately, and room requests can be made when you register. In every cabin a supervisor sleeps in the room next door.
Meals are eaten together, with full board cooked by our own kitchen team. Vegan, gluten-free, lactose-free and fructose-free meals are available if you mention it when registering.
The swimming beach, beach volleyball, beach soccer, mini golf and the aqua park are on site or within walking distance. Evenings bring games, volleyball and roundnet. About half come back the following year, often with friends from their first week.
By car, the address is Zum Badesee 1, 49597 Rieste, with parking right by the cable park. By train, travel to Rieste: we pick your child up at the station, so please tell us the train beforehand. The camp is in the Osnabrück region of Lower Saxony.
