Welcome to "Amerika" – a simple, magical retreat in the midst of greenery. Just a few minutes from Thun, a large meadow at the edge of the forest awaits you, with a fire pit, a cozy tent site, a rustic little house, and plenty of peace. A place to breathe, to be together, and to be outdoors.
Whether for a weekend with friends, a short break as a family, or simply to switch off: here you experience pure nature – with birdsong in the morning, campfires in the evening, and open sky above you.

Superb experience.
The place is just incredible, Michael has set up an outdoor fireplace, there is a marquee with tables and benches. The grounds are very large. We came here to cycle and the path starts right at the foot of the campsite, truly magnificent.
We will definitely be back.
Spacious, cozy, and clean pitch. Busy during the day along the passing hiking trail, but since the pitch is far enough away up above, it didn't bother us or our two dogs at all. It was quiet in the evenings and at night. Lots of wonderful hiking trails, a great stream, and a diverse surrounding area. Many thanks to Michael for the opportunity to relax there ;-)
Great place to relax and enjoy nature
Very nice spot with a tarp, tables, benches, and a composting toilet. There is also a fire pit available. We couldn't use it due to a fire ban. Well located for excursions to Lake Thun or the mountains.
A great spot, especially if you want to meet up with several other campers. Michael is a friendly and helpful host. Would love to come back. :-)
Very beautiful place, would love to come back
