English Action Camp
With qualified trainers from the USA, Great Britain and Ireland, the English language becomes a central experience at the young austria English Action Camp! A meeting place for participants from all over the world!
leisure activities
At the English Action Camp, there’s something for everyone – whether you enjoy sports or prefer to get creative!
Our days are packed with engaging, interactive lessons, and in the afternoons, our enthusiastic counsellors lead a variety of fun activities – all conducted in English, of course.
The camp offers a mix of sports, creative workshops, team-building games, and a relaxing afternoon at the local swimming pool. Every week there are two exciting weekly highlights you can look forward to. For campers staying two weeks, these activities alternate every week, ensuring no two weeks are the same:
- Rafting Tour & Mountain Hike with Picnic (29.06.-05.07., 13.07.-19.07., 27.07.-02.08., 10.08.-16.08.)
- High Ropes Course & Wagrainis Adventure Mountain with Gondola Ride (06.07.-12.07., 20.07.-26.07., 03.08.-09.08., 17.08.-23.08.)
accommodation
The English Action Camp takes place at the ya! Erlebnisgästehaus Simonyhof in Radstadt.
The Simonyhof is in a quiet location in the middle of nature with no through traffic and plenty of space around the house. In summer there are great offers for fun, sport and adventure.
Sports fans will enjoy the large fun court and beach volleyball court right next to the house. The public pool with its 40 metre long giant slide (20 minutes' walk away) also attracts young guests on hot summer days.
By the way: The Simonyhof has its own farm. This means that fresh products are served at all times. The evening campfire romance in front of the crackling fire under a starry sky or the weekly barbecue is of course included.
For rainy days the house has plenty of places to relax inside and a new modern multi-purpose sports hall for fun and sport activities.

Since we offer accompanied train travel from / to Germany only every 2 weeks, we offer a pick-up service from the platform for 1-week stays at the main train station in Salzburg. Certain trains run through from Germany to Salzburg (without changing trains). If you trust your child to travel alone, we will be happy to pick them up directly at the train platform and accompany them to the shared transfer that will take the children to the camps. We do not charge any extra fee for the pick-up service - only the costs for the collective transfer from Salzburg to the camp have to be paid. The ticket for the train ride has to be organized independently. We will be happy to help you find the right connection.
The escort service from / to the train platform must be booked in advance! Please note that the collective transfer from Salzburg leaves at about 15:30, so the arrival should ideally be between 14:00 and 15:00. For return trips, the train should not leave before 12:00 and not after 13:00.
Should the train be significantly delayed, any costs for an individual transfer to the camp may be incurred.
How does the accompanied train journey work?
A ya! travel guide will meet you and your child at the departure station at the platform of the given train. He/she looks after the group, takes care of the children joining at a later station and hands over the children in Salzburg to the ya! team. From here, the children will travel on to the summer camps with the other participants in buses. You will receive detailed information on train times, train numbers, etc. with your travel documents.
