FOKUS Camps is an immersive English and activities camp program for 8 – 16 year olds in Germany.
Our director Greg founded the camps 3 years ago with the idea to create a better camp experience for the great kids and staff we work with. Since then we have grown fast even with the challenges of covid mainly through word of mouth.
We have 10 beautiful camp locations in some of the most Idyllic locations set next to Germanys best lakes. Our camps run four times per year in the German school holidays.
