What is so special about the Naturcamp at Schluchsee in the Black Forest?

The nature camp is run by the association (Natur für alle e.V.). Our aim is to make the interrelationships of life tangible and comprehensible. We want to live with and from nature as much as possible, promote sustainability and convey the importance of environmental awareness and nature conservation to our guests. Here, social, cultural, energetic, biological and economic aspects intertwine and form an inseparable network that can serve as a model for technical innovations in everyday life. The somewhat different campsite in the Black Forest integrates natural processes into waste-free cycles in order to operate sustainably in the long term. The nature camp is run by an association and we rely on the help of every guest when it comes to cleanliness and tidiness.

What are the aims of the Naturcamp?

With our Naturcamp, we have set ourselves the goal of making barrier-free nature tourism with a wide range of accommodation options at Schluchsee and self-catering accessible to people of all backgrounds. Whether as guests or as employees - we ensure social inclusion for people with special needs through natural participation and inclusion, especially in catering and agricultural work areas.

Energy self-sufficient living, particularly in the form of passive houses, photovoltaics and hydropower, is another goal.

 How do we achieve our goals?

By integrating pupils and school companies, we are able to realize practical projects in a timely manner and at the same time give young people experience and self-confidence. We also offer traineeships for the trades or arrange cooperation between amateurs and professionals. People with disabilities are always welcome here.

This results in advantages for everyone involved. In addition to the interdisciplinary cooperation between completely different professions, the nature camp guarantees jobs for everyone, regardless of gender, origin or handicap. Similar to a youth hostel at Schluchsee, we are able to provide young people and school classes in particular with knowledge and skills that they would not be able to practice sufficiently in the usual classroom setting.
