Winter camp

Submitted by kurtmühlematter on

It is not at all easy to find a theme for the camp, for the Bible nowhere tells of ice and snow.

Introduction

We also had very different requirements for the house than for a summer or ski camp. So it should be a bit away from the tourist flow and the skiing areas. A warm, cosy house with enough heatable dry rooms is very important. It would also be good if there was not only one common room, so that work can be done intensively in groups. In areas of the foothills of the Alps that are spared from the hustle and bustle of skiing, in the Tauern and in the Jura, there are still beautiful and inexpensive houses for our purpose. Especially these areas are worth to be rediscovered and explored
