THE WILD WEST in the heart of Schleswig-Holstein. Yeehaw! In Bad Segeberg, Winnetou and Old Shatterhand race each other. What does that mean, you ask? It means that all summer long, the famous Karl-May-Spiele take place on the open-air stage in the city. With horses, bandits, and an incredible backdrop, visitors can't help but cheer. Who will play the role of Winnetou this year? What kind of stunts will be on display? You'll have to come and find out! While you're here, you can also explore the Kalkberg, admire the rocky homes of cute bats on a bat tour, or observe the cute animals at the Noctalis Bat Centre.

YOUR HOSTS  are the Karl-May-loving hostel manager Mi Young and René Petzold, along with their team. They'll enchant you with their programs in the original tipi.

YOUR PROGRAM includes family programs with drumming, archery, storytelling in the tipi, class trips with raft building and team experiences on the Segeberger See.

YOUR YOUTH HOSTEL is located on the shore of the sea "Großer Segeberger See". It's the only authentic Karl May youth hostel, equipped with some props that add to the Wild West atmosphere. The spacious grounds provide plenty of room to explore and enjoy activities such as beach volleyball, swimming, mini-golf, and boating. There's an abundance of things to experience here, making your stay in Bad Segeberg unforgettable. Welcome!
