The Log cabin
is a
small timber house right in front of the Knappenhaus. Inside is a common room
and in the attic is space for up to 10 people to sleep.
Right next to the log cabin, there’s enough space for
another 1 or 2 tents.
The Knappenhaus
was the former
lodging of the mining company and the miners (around 1900).
On the ground floor there is the saloon and the TECHUANA-Shop as well as a fully
fitted kitchen.
On the 1st floor are 2 separated dormitories, for up to 12 people each. There’s
also a single room with bed. Toilets and sanitary facilities, are to be found on
the 1st floor, too.
The attic is fully developed and offers about 40
children a romantic place to sleep. The toilets for boys and girls are separated
and to be found in the Tower on the same floor as the attic.
The Tower is the on the outside lying fire-proof
stairwell.
The Lexe-Haus,
named after the
great sponsor of TECHUANA as well as the Carinthian’s boy scout and girl guides,
Mr. Lexe (sen.), is a multipurpose building
immediately next to the Knappenhaus.
On the ground floor you can find a fully fitted
kitchen and separated shower rooms for boys and girls,
also storage rooms
for tools, maintenance resources, tables and
benches.
On the 1st floor, there is a common room and a dormitory for up to 12 people. At
the roofed back of the Lexe-Haus are sanitary facilities.
Between
the Lexe-Haus and the Tower is a shed roof
built that gives shelter when the weather is bad. In
the tower you can find dishwashing basins.
Kitchen – Opportunities in TECHUANA
According to our motto “TECHUANA is the scoutiest campsite in Austria”, we made
the areas for our youngest people (brownies and cups) as exciting as possible.
Areas such as the play area, Bandar-log City, Human Village, Akela’s rock, Red
Flower Campsite, Veigunga River are accessible for both brownies and cups,
whereas sleeping areas, shower blocks and toilets, areas for cooking and eating,
are separated by groups.
We offer two areas, meaning that two groups and their catering team can operate
within these areas self-sufficiently and independently.
The kitchen areas have tiled floor and wall, with easy to clean surfaces and
simple units. Lights and cookers are operated by a central gas system, which
also ensures hot water on demand. There is also a big basin where Kitchenware
can be cleaned.
In the area there are two local supermarkets. We recommend daily shopping to
ensure that food it as fresh as possible and used in good time. If there are
left-overs we can offer some refrigerated storage.
If you need temporary electricity, e.g. for a coffee machine, please talk to us.
Tableware, i.e. small and big plates, mugs and cutlery is available for about 50
people. Depending on the size of groups, the availability of pots and pans could
be limited. When you book your stay we would talk about what we can offer in
terms of pots and pans and what you would need to bring yourself. There is a
separate washing area at the bottom of the tower (between the houses) where
brownies and cups can clean their used dishes, which should make it easier for
the catering team.
There is plenty of space for having meals. The tables and benches are secured
and can also be used for activities such as arts and playing games.
TECHUANA and its equipment are regularly inspected by the local authority,
including the kitchen area, shower blocks and toilets. We have the necessary
permits from the authorities to rent the kitchens to our visitors.
