LOCATION -Laax, a picturesque Swiss Mountain Village, is a summer paradise of green mountain pastures, glacier-fed rivers, and pristine lakes. The Caumasee, the largest lake in the area, is sourced from natural warm water springs and features islands and beautiful turquoise water. The Laaxersee also offers great swimming with countless aquatic activities such as canoeing, water trampoline and paddling.

Located at an ideal 1000 meters, the average temperature in summer is around a very comfortable 22 Degres Celcius. The safety and security are of very high standards, as the road in front and around our building is private.

STAFF AND SAFETY The ratio of staff to campers is 1:5. Our staff are carefully screened and trained during an intensive process. For some activities, we enlist the ex- pertise of additional professionals to ensure the safety of the Campers.

The Management Team is always present and supervises every aspect of camp life. We conduct daily staff meetings to ensure that we receive feedback from our Teachers in order to adapt the program for the next day. Every night, campers are informed about our “Night Monitors”, that is, staff who remaining the corridors throughout the night to provide any needed assistance or simply to comfort a camper that has had a bad dream. Our building is also equipped with a state of the art CCTV and access door system that prevents any unauthorized entrance.
