German Summer course in Hintersee/Alps, Germany

(12-16)

The magnificent scenery of lake Hintersee attracts thousands of visitors every year. This spectacular part of Germany is situated in Bavaria, below the steep walls of the Hochkalter - Germany's third largest mountain! The nearest village is Ramsau, just 10 minutes away by bus, where you can find cosy ice-cream cafés and little shops. Another short ride away and you are in the internationally renowned Berechtesgarden National Park and the health resorts by the Königssee lake. The whole area is the jewel of the Bavarian Alps and a paradise of peace!

Our summer camp for Young Students has a beautiful view over the lake and mountains. All students live together in the residence, exclusively reserved for the course participants and the campus also has its own boat rental, canoes, kayaks, 2 bowling alleys and a gym. There is plenty of space on-site for classrooms, residence accommodation, dining hall, leisure activities and sports.

Our junior course in Hintersee is regretfully not available this summer. Please contact us for more information regarding any of our other German young student or adult language programmes.
