English camp with horses – it’s off to Mimbach!
Our Berlitz language camp in Mimbach is perfect for those who love horses. Kids and teens can learn English, ride to their hearts’ content and spend plenty of time with the farm’s horses. Our fantastic leisure program in the afternoons and evenings also leaves nothing to be desired.
Improving English skills at Mimbach language camp with Berlitz
Our holiday camp in Mimbach combines English lessons in the mornings with a varied leisure program in the afternoons. During lessons, the focus is on creativity: for example, kids will write content for our camp magazine, draw and describe their own pictures, or act out fairy tales in English. That way, we teach kids to enjoy the foreign language through play.
Learning English during the school break? That’s not a problem with our Berlitz English camps! Unlike school lessons, the aim here is not to teach as much material and grammar as possible. We use the Berlitz method of "learning by speaking", i.e. as much active speaking as possible. We offer kids:
- Lessons five mornings a week (4 x 45 minutes each)
- Kids are encouraged to actively use English in small groups.
On the day of arrival, we’ll assign kids to learning groups according to their age and previous knowledge.
Riding, taking care of horses, and so much more: our leisure program
In addition to English, almost everything at our Berlitz language and riding camp revolves around horses. Kids get to enjoy daily riding lessons with professional instructors - in German. In addition to this, the Berlitz team will plan other recreational activities depending on the group and weather. During these activities we will speak English. For example, kids can make friendship bracelets or organize a fashion show.
Our camp participants always like to spend as much time as possible with the many animals on the farm. In addition to horses, kids can befriend dogs, cats, and even a donkey. There’s no such thing as boredom at our Berlitz Camp in Mimbach!
Four days a week, our participants will receive one hour of riding lessons on trained horses, either in the riding hall or the outdoor arena. The lessons will be given by professional riding instructors in German. Each kid will be given their own foster horse, which they’ll take care of throughout the camp week. There are riding lessons for both beginners and advanced riders. Local excursions with "their" horse are always an extra special experience for kids!
In the evening, we go full steam ahead with our group leisure program. Examples include a camp party or a horse hairdressing competition. Or we might chill out with a relaxed wellness session or movie night.
Important note: The offered activities are depending on the weather, date, and availability – therefore the program may vary.

Additional information
"Let’s speak English" – that’s the motto we follow at the Mimbach Berlitz Camp. Our experienced counselors are at the kids’ side all day long. Both during lessons that take place in small groups in the mornings and during the fun and action in the afternoons and evenings. Our focus: to ensure all kids speak English all day long.
The best proof of the success of our Berlitz concept: many counselors were camp participants themselves in the past and support us year after year!
Providing the best all-round support at our Berlitz language camps is important to us. That also includes a balanced diet. Kids will receive three meals a day and these include drinks like juice, tea, or water. Please pack a reusable water bottle, so that your child can fill it up in between meals.
We try our best to offer alternatives for kids with special requests, such as vegetarians or those with allergies. Please contact our team before booking so that we can discuss this on a one-on-one basis.
How we start: Camp starts on the first day at the time mentioned in the travel information (sent to all participants before camp start). Together with their parents, kids will be able to get to know our team and other participants and take part in a parents' welcome session. All kids will receive our welcome package, which consists of a gym bag, lunch box, T-shirt, and much more. We use a written and oral placement to place kids in the right learning group. With younger kids, we often just talk briefly about their hobbies and everyday life.
Important departure information: Parents can pick up their kids on the day of departure. You will find out exactly when in the camp travel documents. Unfortunately, it is not possible to pick kids up at a later time, as our team will also be leaving. We will send all camp documents, including a certificate of participation, to the participants afterwards.
Then take a look at our kids camp FAQ page where we have gathered further information.
We will also send you further details regarding the pack list, arrival and departure etc. by e-mail after your booking.
