Questions Camping Edersee Paradies | FAQ
1. Do I need to book in advance?
A reservation is not always necessary, but it’s recommended—especially on public holidays and during high season. We can usually only take pitch requests into account if you book early. You can also book online at short notice and pay directly via PayPal or bank transfer—even on the day of arrival.
2. Can I arrive spontaneously?
Yes, walk-in guests are welcome. Even outside reception hours, you can still book online on site (if available) and pay via PayPal or instant bank transfer. You will then receive a confirmation email right away with your assigned pitch.
3. Reception is closed when I arrive – what now?
If you have already booked and paid, that is no problem. You can simply go to your assigned pitch. If the electricity boxes are locked, the key is hanging on the reception door. The barrier to the campsite closes at 10:00 p.m. due to the quiet hours.
Please remember to bring €0.50 coins for the shower, a CEE plug, and an extension cable.
For a spontaneous arrival, please see question 2.
4. Are dogs allowed?
Yes, dogs are welcome. They may also swim in the Edersee as long as they are on a leash and you are considerate of other guests. Guide dogs are free.
5. Are there electricity and water connections?
Yes. At several central locations you’ll find fresh-water points and power boxes with CEE connections (CEE adapters can also be borrowed on site). Please indicate during booking whether you need electricity.
6. Is there Wi-Fi?
Yes. Wi-Fi is available in the courtyard in front of the reception and in the common room. You can purchase Wi-Fi access directly through the Wi-Fi network.
7. Are there sanitary facilities?
Yes, there are 29 toilets, 3 urinals, 16 showers and 6 sinks for washing dishes, spread across 5 sanitary buildings. Our facilities are simple but functional. The showers operate with a €0.50 coin slot.
8. Can I barbecue or make a campfire?
Barbecuing is allowed. Open fires are only permitted in fire bowls (available to borrow on site) and depend on current weather/fire risk conditions. Firewood can be purchased at reception and must not be collected in the national park or at the Edersee.
9. Are there shops nearby?
Yes, there is a small shop on the campsite with fresh bread rolls and a restaurant. In Vöhl you’ll find the nearest larger supermarket.
10. Are motorhomes and campers welcome?
Yes—motorhomes, caravans, tents and campervans are welcome. If you have a larger vehicle, please provide the dimensions when booking so we can find a suitable pitch for you.
11. Can I book an appointment for horse riding?
As we do not work with a fixed schedule, the times for children’s pony rides and donkey rides are arranged on site. We will then see together what is possible. Please come to the reception to arrange this.
12. Is swimming possible?
Yes—swimming is possible in the Edersee, a large reservoir with clean natural water. Check the water level here. Swimming is generally still possible down to a level of about +233. There are also outdoor pools in Vöhl and Korbach. When the water level is low, you can even reach Vöhl by bike or on foot via the “Atlantis Bridge” (Asel Bridge), which then becomes visible again.
13. What happens in bad weather?
The campsite remains open. In heavy rain, some grassy areas may become softer or muddy. We recommend waterproof shoes and, if needed, traction aids for vehicles.
14. Do you have an accessible/disabled bathroom?
Yes, we have a separate accessible bathroom with Euro key access, and it’s free to use. Please note, however, that parts of the campsite have unpaved paths and grass areas.
15. WHERE CAN I CHARGE MY CAR?
There is an EV charging station nearby in Vöhl-Harbshausen. More information, current availability and directions can be found here:
