Accommodation and catering
Participants can stay overnight on site in their own tent, caravan or mobile home. Alternatively, it is possible to book a hotel on site at your own expense. Hotels can be found via Google for Obermoschel. You can grill or make a fire in a fire bowl on the premises. Open fires on the ground are not allowed. Dogs are generally allowed; we only ask that you ensure adequate security and the removal of dog poo.

As the organizer, we offer vegetarian dishes at the camp, which can be booked as a package price or bought individually like in a café. Planning may mean that not all dishes are available without pre-booking full catering, but no one will go hungry. Alternatively, there is the possibility of full or partial self-sufficiency or visiting restaurants in Obermoschel. The resulting waste must be disposed of by the participants themselves, ie they must be taken with them if possible. The (vegetarian) full board includes three lunches, two breakfasts and two dinners. We ask that participants bring their own non-vegetarian dishes.
