Hey! After a few years of break, finally we are having another weekend camping trip. This time we’ll go to this beautiful lake Sorpesee, in the heart of the Sauerland!!

Day I (Aug 4, Friday)

Arrival at the campsite Sorpesee Zeltplatz 2. Someone has to be there before 6pm (that’s gonna be probably me). Amalia and Rohith will go there by their own cars. If you are lucky you can get a lift from a nearby station (Sanssouci, Arnsberg etc.?). I made a reservation for 5 spots, i.e. we can have exactly 5 tents (of up to 10 m^2), but the number of people is flexible.

Arrival plan:

  • Sam: Arrival by train + bicycle because someone has to be there before 6pm
  • Amalia & Soumil: By Amalia’s car, starting from Essen around 5-6pm
  • Rohith, Bahare & maybe Magu: Rohith’s car, starting from Düsseldorf Hbf around 5:30pm

I would suggest we will have Ramen soup. For this I will take a large pot and a few packages of instant ramen. You guys can bring  random ingredients and we’ll make a soup together!

Day II (Aug 5, Saturday)

We don’t have a specific plan yet. There are a few ideas:

  • Hiking (obviously…)
  • Swimming in the lake
  • Stand Up Paddling (we can rent it on the spot)
  • Cycling

We can potentially have multiple activities as well.

In the evening we will grill. We will go buy food at some point during the day.

Day III (Aug 6, Sunday)

We have to leave the place before 10am.

One tent spot costs 16€ (8€ per night). Then it costs 20€ for each person (10€ per night). That means if you are alone in your tent, it costs 36€ in total. If you share a tent with another person, it costs 28€ for each of you.

The group is already full, but the campsite itself still has capacities, so you can also book a spot yourself here and join us.

Items to take (I put links for recommendations):

  • Sleeping bag (maybe > 10 °C ?)
  • Mattress
  • Pillow (not indispensable, but ultra comfortable)
  • Tent
  • Cutlery
  • Bowl (there’ll be soup in the first evening)
  • Plates
  • Swimming stuff
  • Towel
  • Head lamp (if you already have one)
