Activities
ECOlonie is a place not just for a rest, you can also choose from a range of activities. Years of experience taught us that our guests appreciate the fact that they can choose from all things on offer once they are here.
The available activities differ from season to season. Most things are on in summertime. In July and August, several kinds of workshops are available, mainly lasting half a day. To subscribe to these just register at the spot.
During spring and autumn breaks we offer extra activities, for instance guided walks.
Additional activities that are on offer all year round.
All year
 | Art studio In our art studio and (weather permitting) outside you may keep yourself busy being creative in an artistic way. Adults as well as children may work here with the help of an experienced person. |
 | The Visions of ECOlonie ECOlonie is more than just a very special holiday resort. Getting acquainted with our way of life as a community and our outlook on life in general turns out to be a source of inspiration to many. Once a week, in the early evening, we enjoy exchanging ideas, views and thoughts with interested guests. |
 | Organic gardening The organic vegetable and herb gardens are a very important part of ECOlonie. If you are interested we are happy to discuss them. In July and August one night a week an information evening is held about our vegetable gardens and there are guided walks through the herbal garden. We will talk about its origins, cultivation methods, crop rotation and so on. Of course it is possible to lend us a hand in the gardens too! |
 | Solar power with solar cells and water revitalisation system Interested people will be offered information about these on request and may have a look at both systems. An important part of the water used at the campsite and in the large kitchen is being heated by solar power. A system developed by ourselves takes care of optimal transference of solar warmth to the water for the showers and kitchen. Also all our pipe water is revitalised by a Grander water revitalisation system. This means that all tap water takes on its original properties. |
 | Ecopath The eco-path is permanently present at the site. It consists of a guided tour along several information panels informing about ways of using alternative energy. For instance the solar cells, compost toilet, water hut, etc. |
