Camping at the (Colm)lake
Camping am (Colm)see welcomes you to the small municipality of Hellschen-Heringsand-Unterschaar in the heart of Dithmarschen. The green pitch is situated directly on a small lake, surrounded by trees and next to a charming old barn building. It's only a few minutes' drive to the North Sea coast, and you can reach the spa town of Büsum in a quarter of an hour. In the surrounding area, it's worth taking a trip to the Eiderssperrwerk or the Hochdonn railway high bridge. A peaceful retreat where nature and relaxation take centre stage.1

Sights in the area
Eider barrage
The Eider Barrage is an old weir that was built to protect the city from storm surges. It is a fascinating piece of engineering and was used for centuries to protect people. You can walk on it, explore its architecture or just enjoy the view from afar. It's a must-see when you're in Dithmarschen!
NOK ferry Hohenhörn
We have the right thing for you. Our ferries are the perfect way to explore Dithmarschen, and we have some of the best restaurants on the canal. You can enjoy your meal while watching our beautiful landscape go by.
Hochdonn railroad bridge
The canal had been dug to provide an alternative route from Hamburg to Kiel, but it soon became clear that there were not enough ships to use it. So instead, trains crossed the canal on this swing bridge (which could be swung open) until a new rail line with a fixed crossing at Taterpfahl (Averlak) was built in 1909.
Kiel Canal Ferry Hochdonn
The Kiel Canal ferries are the only free ferries in Germany. They run around the clock, so there's always one waiting for you. And they're really fast! You'll be over there in no time. Plus, it's free! What more could you ask for?
Wesselburen
Dithmarschen is the perfect destination for those who want to escape from everyday life. The region is known as "the green heart of Germany" and offers many opportunities for outdoor activities, such as cycling or hiking in the forest. You can also enjoy delicious food in one of the many restaurants and cafes.
Lighthouse
Lighthouses are the most iconic symbols of our maritime culture. They have guided ships for centuries and have become an important part of our history. But they also offer something more than navigation - they provide a place where we can come together, reflect on the past and dream about the future.
