Camping Höllensteinsee is a paradise on earth. The young couple that manages the campsite, is full of enthusiasm to perfect this campsite. They have planned a renovation of the buildings during 2019. The campsite is in an idyllic location in the Bavarian Forest: on a promontory in a curving, wide section of the Regen River, where the lake is called the Höllensteinsee. Key words on the campsite: tranquillity, green and water.

Experience nature in optima forma

You can select your own pitch, level and not demarcated. There are some 1400 pitches, half of which directly on the water. There are a large number of trees on the grounds, although the pitches are rather open. This is an ideal campsite to experience nature, peace and fun! You can moor your canoe or kayak directly next to your pitch, so to speak. The campsite does not offer alternative rental accommodation.

Water activities

Camping guests consist largely of seekers of peace and nature such as anglers, swimmers and canoeists. In short: campers who like to enjoy themselves near water. In the holiday periods you will find many families and groups. Swimming and snorkelling in the lake is allowed. Favourite pastimes, however, are canoeing, rafting and fishing. Swimming in deep water is not recommended here, certainly not for the youngest swimmers. There is also no beach.

Catering

At the current reception you will find a small canteen with limited menu. You can enjoy a meal and drinks at picnic tables under a canopy. There is not (as yet) a camping shop. Who knows..they may still build one. You can, however, get fresh bread.

Moderne neue Sanitäranlagen. Große Plätze. Landschaftlich wunderschön gelegen. Leider kein großer Badeplatz. Dafür für Kanus, Kajaks und SUPs ideal. Feuerschalen können für die Lagerromantik ausgeliehen werden.

Herrliche Landschaft, Kanus ausleihen bei fit&fun, wandern gehen Brötchenservice, Team absolut freundlich, modern, Sanitär auf dem höchsten Stand nichts zu bemängeln und für das Wetter kann ja niemand, wir kommen auf alle Fälle wieder.

Wir waren vom 14.-16.06.2020 mit unserem Hund auf dem Platz, leider hat das Wetter nicht ganz so mitgespielt. Dadurch waren manche Plätze aufgeweicht und matschig. Könnte man vielleicht mit Rasengittersteinen verbessern. Die Toiletten hatten reduziert geöffnet, könnten modernisiert werden, ansonsten aber weitestgehend sauber. Duschen waren gesperrt (Corona). Bei der Abreise wollten wir noch das Grauwasser entleeren, was nur erschwert möglich ist. Der Platz zum ablassen ist dermaßen aufgeweicht, da muss unbedingt etwas gemacht werden. Landschaftlich liegt der Platz ganz idyllisch am gestauten schwarzen Regen, ein Traum für Naturliebhaber.
