Book your next vacation!

Welcome to the Uhlenköper-Camp and the Hotel 11 Eulen in Uelzen-Westerweyhe

Eco-camping at its best: organic store, organic bread rolls, organic beer … At the small Uhlenköper camp on the edge of the heath town of Uelzen, everyone will find their favorite spot: cosy and comfortable for a longer stay, practical and easy for a flying visit by bike or camper van.

While the grown-ups enjoy a coffee on the sunny terrace, the children play in the swimming pool, on the playground or by the stream.

The little ones can also have great fun with nature and animals on site. Washing machine and tumble dryer for “after” are available in the well-kept sanitary area.

The Uhlenköper Camp is the ideal starting point for canoe trips, bike tours and excursions into the surrounding countryside – and a welcome destination after an eventful day.

We do not rest on our laurels – we are always ready to listen to your wishes. Enjoy relaxing and varied days with us in a family atmosphere – we look forward to seeing you!

Your Körding & Paul families
