Campsite de Helfterkamp is located on the edge of the Veluwe natural area in wonderful surroundings, on the outskirts of Vaassen in Gelderland. Here you can visit Cannenburgh Castle from the 16th century or the lovely windmill. The campsite is encircled by forests, so you camp in the wonderful green countryside.

Excelling in hospitality

It is not only the staff who contribute to this, the grounds are also very inviting. The campsite consists of various grass fields, most have a small playground in the middle. This means that children can play to their hearts’ content while parents can keep an eye on things. There are also fields without a playground, for those seeking more peace and quiet. Furthermore, there are various car free fields. The spacious pitches have been provided with a layer of crushed stone (natural stones) for the awning so that you do not have to camp in the mud. Furthermore, there are eleven mobile homes and a holiday home surrounded by a garden (and so plenty of privacy!).

Easy going and friendly

Such an easy going and hospitable atmosphere attracts a public looking precisely for that. At the campsite, you will mainly find families with young children who like playing outdoors and enjoy small-scale entertainment. The campsite is also perfectly suited for seniors, in particular due to the wonderful countryside location. Beside the campsite, in the woods, children can enjoy the countryside. It’s great for playing around and hiking and there is a spot for a large campfire at the edge of the forest. So, an evening of scary stories and roasting marshmallows is guaranteed.

Deze zomer opnieuw drie weken op deze prachtige camping geweest.
Ivm de corona was Alles Goed geregeld!!!
Alles werd nog vaker schoongemaakt dan andere jaren en toen werd er al vaak schoongemaakt. Alle lof aan alle schoonmaaksters!!! Bart (de eigenaar) kwam zelf \'s-avonds om 22.30 uur nog langs om overal nog weer schoon te maken.
Het is een camping die wie iedereen aanraden met zeer royale plaatsen.
Wij staan ieder jaar op een veld waar een kinderklimtoren, zandbak en schommel staan. Ook worden de grasvelden op alle velden goed onderhouden. Ze blijven groen ondanks de droogte. Het is gewoon een ontzettend Gezellige! en Super schone! camping!
