Description

The experiential educational school camp Barkhausen of the Ehlerding Foundation in the Hamburg region offers school classes, youth groups, and other educational institutions a continuously bookable program that combines experiential education, environmental education, and team building. Participants are guided through action-oriented methods to foster self-efficacy and strengthen the sense of community. In the idyllic natural setting, activities such as low ropes courses, compass orientation, or archery can be experienced, as well as expeditions to dinosaur tracks, a hedge maze, and nature-based experience stations. While accommodation and catering costs are borne independently, the foundation supports the on-site educational program with a grant specifically tailored to the needs of school trips and youth recreational activities. Educational institutions, clubs, and non-profit initiatives benefit from this combination of adventure, nature experience, and reflective learning modules.

Interested school classes and youth groups, as well as educational providers, can easily book the offer via an online inquiry and receive all necessary information regarding dates, group size, and program design after submitting the booking request. The Ehlerding Foundation’s grant exclusively covers the experiential and environmental educational program, allowing flexible organization of accommodation and catering. The open booking structure enables both short-term requests and long-term planning. This sustainable funding model is equally aimed at experienced and first-time groups seeking an action-oriented learning environment to promote team spirit, personal responsibility, and environmental awareness.
