IN GENERAL FOR ALL WHICH WILL ARRIVE FROM ABROAD BY PLANE:

As the camp in 2023 starts on the Friday morning @ 9 AM it is a bit complicated to arrive IN-TIME from abroad. We have worked out the below options for a plausible logistics (CLICK on the image to zoom-in. To return press the back key in your browser):

Pls. note the early start Friday is only a temporary thing for 2023 – from 2024 and beyond we will be back to a start Thursday afternoon.

Mostly for people not doing karate or staying longer …

VARIOUS INFO:

Voltage: 220V AC, 60Hz – Central European plug (like the Germans use… and Swedes…and Norwegians… and – well, almost all EU countries use). So, remember a converter plug if you come from UK, US or Japan.

Currency: Danish Kroner (DKK). All major Credit Cards are accepted in most stores, taxi’s etc – but it seems that almost all requires the CHIP versions (or wireless) – so if you want to be sure – have such.

Language: Danish – or let’s call it Danglish … as we inherit so many words from English the language is somehow floating…

Climate: Out of control. Can be warm and nice in July e.g. 20-25⁰C (2018, 2019, 2020) – or cold/windy and raining e.g. 15⁰C-20⁰C (2017). Prepare for the worst – and it will be good.

Border control: Remember your valid passports – please.

Health: Nearest hospital and emergency room is ~30mins from the camp. We do not plan to use it – but just in case.

CAMP AREA: As in 2022 the camp is held at a SPORTS boarding school (Danish 1-year type) literally located in the middle of nowhere (so no distractions – only karate).
