Youth centers offer excursions for children between 8 and 14 years old
The municipal youth centers "HEAG-Häuschen" and "Messeler Straße" are once again hosting the "Arheilgen Active Holidays On Tour" program during the summer holidays. From Monday, July 27th, to Friday, July 31st, 2026, children and teenagers aged 8 to 14 can discover Darmstadt and the surrounding region on a variety of day trips.
Explore Darmstadt and the surrounding area together
Under the motto "Arheilgen Active Holidays On Tour," participants visit various destinations in small groups, where they can play, explore, and marvel. Experienced supervisors accompany the children throughout the week.
“Especially for families who can’t go on vacation in the summer, these kinds of holiday programs are an important component of the city’s work with children and young people. With ‘Arheilgen Active Holidays On Tour,’ our youth centers offer a fantastic opportunity to spend the holidays in an exciting way with peers – and all at a truly fair price. I’m delighted that we can support children and their families in Arheilgen and beyond with this program,” explains Mayor Barbara Akdeniz.
