To help you get in and out you can find a step on there.

Road
The private road leading to the campsite from the public road has a hard pebbly surface. Apart from long rainy periods lorries carrying canoes can use it too.

Parking
Parking is free for the guests of the campsite.

Transport
If you are travelling by train use the Szombathely-Körmend-Szentgotthárd line and get off at Rátót. The campsite is about 2km away in the direction of Rábagyarmat. If you are driving or travelling by bike, use the number 8 highway. From Körmend drive past Gasztony and turn left at Rátót after the Rábagyarmat sign. Go through Rátót and always turning left, leave the village. The campsite is about 800m from Rátót directly before the Rába bridge on the left.

Shopping
You can buy your basic groceries in two small shops in Rábagyarmat which fulfill local demand, so for larger groups it is reasonable to order bakeries, dairy products and meat in advance.

Sport
Apart from swimming and canoeing you can play football, badminton volleyball, skittles or chess. Some of you might want to try archery too. 

Entertainment
If you would like to pass time with the Devil\'s Bible, the campsite attendant can give to a pack of cards. If you are longing for a glass of draught beer or other beverage, walk to Rábagyarmat. In the Fenyõ Presszó in Város Str. you can even have a private room to drink and chat. In the Fortuna Presszó in Kocsis László Str. you can \'cool\' yourself and do your shopping at the same time, since the grocery store is in the same building. 

Fishing
Because of the changeable river-bed, different water depths and movements you can hook various fishes. (barbell, nose-carp, pike-perch, bream, wells, pike, bass etc.) To achieve this you will need different tactics, which is an adventure in itself. If you would like to see several lively creatures in your keep-net you will need to stay a couple of days to choose the best places, gain experience and perhaps visit the nearby mining lakes too.

Swimming
 Only good swimmers should venture further away because of the dangers of the river currents and suddenly changing water depth. 

Sightseeing
Rábagyarmat is the westernmost settlement of the conquering Gyarmat tribe. The quiet village, hiding among forest covered hills, has been and is a worthy place to visit for those who want to relax.
