Camping in Nidwalden

Altzellerberg - Einfach Heimat

Switzerland-6388 Grafenort
A simple, very quiet pitch with stunning views of the Engelberg Valley. It is the ideal starting point for great adventures for couples or the whole family—whether on foot, by bike/e-bike, or paragliding in Engelberg-Titlis, Brunni, Bannalp, Wirzweli, Maria-Rickenbach, Stanserhorn, or on Lake Lucerne. Access is from Grafenort (Stans-Süd towards Engelberg) via the St. Joder Chapel on the Altzellerberg. Your pitch is located on reinforced pasture land right next to the alpine stable; most of the time, you will have the surroundings all to yourself, or share them with your neighbors: cows and chickens. Here, you can admire the mountain panorama and set off on hikes, mountain climbs, or bike tours. Directly from the camp, you can walk to Wellenberg and Eggiligrat, hike to the Walenpfad, Brunni, and Bannalp, enjoy the peaceful atmosphere of the St. Joder Chapel, or conquer the local paragliding paradise. Nights are rarely this clear and the surroundings so peaceful. Only the sound of cowbells, rustling leaves, chirping crickets, or the call of a night owl, deer, or fox might disturb your sleep. If you're interested, we’re happy to give you a glimpse into daily life on the alp and show you how our most reliable employee—an automatic milking robot—works. Upon request, we offer traditional 'Z'Abigplättli' (evening platters) or alpine breakfast. You can choose to enjoy your meal right by your camper, in the cozy 'Ghirmi-Hittli' shelter, or outside at the large table. Fresh water is available right next to the pitch, and hot water can be collected at any time from the stable or the alpine hut. Showers and toilets are also located at the alpine hut, with a self-built compost toilet available at the Ghirmi-Hittli. Inside the Ghirmi-Hittli, you’ll find a fridge stocked with refreshing drinks, ingredients for spontaneous BBQ evenings, or snacks. There is also a coffee machine with excellent organic coffee and homemade organic products from our farm. Dogs are NOT allowed on the pitch.

Water/WC/Electricity Connection - At the 'Ghirmi-Hittli' (20 m from the camp), a comfortable compost toilet is available. You will also find a lovely sink with cold water for your daily freshening up, fresh drinking water, hand washing, or doing the dishes. Let yourself be surprised! - Right at the camp, you have access to cold water and an electricity connection (220V) >> please bring your own extension cable. - Hot water is available at the stable. - You can use the showers at the alpine hut (approx. 350 m from the camp). You are also welcome to use the toilet there. - At your campsite, you'll find a fire pit and a grill for cozy evenings by the fire. - Local firewood and mountain charcoal can be purchased on-site. Lounge Area At the Ghirmi-Hittli, you will also find a picnic table and a cozy shelter with ample seating, whether you prefer to stay dry or soak up the sun. Access All paths consist of paved or concrete small roads. You will be living door-to-door—or rather, head-to-head—with the farm animals. Our cows enjoy their daily pasture; your paths will likely cross as they head out to graze. The chickens are your closest neighbors, and you can watch them pecking and scratching about. The sense of peace that spreads over you while watching these content animals is truly indescribable. Light Since there are no village or city lights to brighten the night sky, you can enjoy the starry canopy in all its breathtaking glory.

Was wonderful and Carla & Peter are good hosts. Despite a good description, our pitch was not entirely clear, we ended up in the wrong spot and had to move again afterwards. Better to ask once more whether it's the right pitch - that way you save yourself the move :-)
Very beautiful views, nice pitches and the farm animals provide nice entertainment. The product that we tested from the farm where delicious! Highly recommend!
Very nice place, everything worked out wonderfully 👍
