Waldbad camp site in Dünnwald

Waldbad in Cologne-Dünnwald is the only campsite that’s not on the river – instead, it’s in the forest and has one major asset: a large open air pool with swimming lanes, a water slide, grassy lounging areas and a beach volleyball court. Plus there’s crazy golf and a wildlife park just next door. This small campsite is surrounded by tall pine and fir trees, with birds going mad in the treetops. Mobile phone reception is patchy. Around 50 permanent campers are on site at any one time, with some 20 pitches reserved for temporary guests. If you decide to drop in without the required equipment, there’s also two guest bedrooms and a caravan plus awing. There’s a common room with a book shelf and TV and a kitchen and fridge for residents’ use next door. No breakfast is served, but you can pre-order fresh bread rolls. A restaurant located between the campsite and the pool serves cooked meals. By the way, the swimming pool is also a venue for concerts, midnight swimming events and aquagym sessions.
