DURATION: 12 days

Overview

Teenagers from Greece and Germany come together in Pertouli, in a unique camp experience filled with nature, adventure, and authentic moments.

30 campers aged 14–17 form a small, close-knit group, sharing life experiences that go beyond borders.

The limited number of participants allows for meaningful guidance, personal interaction, and the opportunity to take part in more challenging and exciting activities.
The setting? Lakes, mountains, waterfalls, and rivers — the ultimate outdoor playground.

From hiking and climbing to rafting on the Aliakmonas River, canoe kayaking on Lake Plastira, and excursions to Zagori and Meteora, each day is filled with adventure, smiles, and unforgettable moments.

Here, campers are not just participants — they are an active part of the experience.
They help shape the program, take on responsibilities, develop life skills, and build friendships that often last for years.

Through shared experiences, participants learn the value of respect, cooperation, and friendship. Physical and personal development, life skills, and respect for nature are at the heart of the philosophy of the Pertouli International Camp.
