#ndr #ndrdoku #camping The Elbecamp in Blankenese offers a beach, pure nature and a view of the big ships. The campsite is located directly on the Falkensteiner Ufer on the Elbe cycle path. Sebastian is the groundskeeper and guide here. When the guests arrive, he and his boss Garip Yavuz pull the caravans over the deep sand to the pitch on a tractor. There is no other way for the campers to reach their destination here. There are 57 mobile pitches, 40 seasonal pitches for permanent campers and 70 tent pitches. There is also an area with large sleeping tents for children and youth groups. They can stay here at a cheaper price. The Elbecamp is a project of the Child Protection and Youth Welfare Association. The weekends at the Elbecamp are almost fully booked again. Friday is always the big arrival day. Guests from all over the world then check in at the Elbecamp. But there are also many Hamburgers who just want to escape the hectic city life at the weekend and take a short trip to the idyllic campsite on the Elbe. For Sebastian and Garip, these are particularly stressful days. After the Corona restrictions have been relaxed, campers are allowed to come again - full capacity is permitted. For Sebastian and Garip, it's basically from zero to a hundred - in a short time. They have to ensure that the site rules are observed. For example, there is a night's rest and rules for making fires. Permanent campers, day tourists, weekend vacationers - they all have one goal: to switch off and enjoy the beach feeling right on the Elbe. From young to old - from campers in tents to luxury motorhomes - everyone comes together at the Elbecamp. And everything has to run smoothly - including the beach catering on the almost six-hectare site. The NDR team goes into the weekend with the guests and experiences tourists and Hamburgers diving into their camping world. What is the appeal of camping and will the three days on the city beach - Friday to Sunday - really be as happy and relaxing as expected?
