Promoting minimum impact travel
We love creating amazing memories for our guests. We love sharing our favourite activities, our favourite food and our favourite places. However, we recognise the challenges tourism brings with it, and have set out to make a difference. This is how the idea behind Outeroutes was born.
The concept has one plain and simple goal: to create incomparable experiences for you, with minimum impact on the environment.
The concept is built on four “main pillars”. These have been designed and aligned in order to provide you with the vacation sought after, the vacation you deserve.
The pillars are: Adventure, Gastronomy, Home & Community.
All pillars are built on the foundation of our little to no impact goal. Sustainability is what drives us. We aim to inspire a shift in the modern hospitality industry.
Adventure
Our goal is to quench your thirst for the outdoors.
If you're the type of person that likes to try it all, we’ve got your covered. Our unique “tailor” made packages will provide you with the possibility of mixing and matching. You can choose to surf every day, do yoga every day, hike some mountains or rappel down waterfalls. It’s all up to you. Each destination offers a unique set of exciting outdoor adventures to choose from.
You choose, we plan.

Home
When we travel, we leave the comfort of our home and set out to face challenges and experience new and exciting things.
At Outeroutes, we promise that you will get these experiences, and that you will be challenged, but that you will do this from the comfort of a new home. We recognise that feeling welcome, feeling you belong and having a place to truly disconnect from your everyday life is what most of you are looking for. Outeroutes sets out to deliver just that!
Feel relaxed, kick back and get cozy after a long day of outdoor adventures, connect with like minded people and sip on your favourite beverage.

Gastronomy
We love food. We really like food. We looove good food!
Food, like movement, social contact or having a home, is an essential part of life. At Outeroutes we recognise this, and we cherish this. We need food not only for survival, but also as a means to relax, a means to bond and a means to explore!
A week with us will open doors and make you want to explore the realms of cooking! Our chefs will take you on a culinary journey, pamper you and make you taste things you haven’t tasted before. Get ready.

Community
What are your best memories connected to? A place? A taste? Or people you’ve met along the way? We believe that all elements play an important part, however we believe that the people you meet make the difference.
There are no strangers here, only friends you haven’t yet met. Share your adventures with your partners & friends and become part of the Outeroutes family. Our destinations offer the perfect environment for groups and solo travellers.
The vibe will always be of the essence, and together we’ll make sure it’s alive!
Minimun Impact Travel
Outeroutes is built on a foundation that is meant to last. We are not in it for the quick buck.
Sustainability, in every aspect, is what we stand for and is what determines how we do business.
Decisions taken will always be based on the environmental footprint they leave behind.
Whether it’s the food we cook, the adventures we offer or the waste we recycle, it all comes down to the impact it has, and whether or not it contributes to the preservation of our environment.
The hospitality industry plays a huge role in the environmental crises. As travellers, as individuals and as entrepreneurs, we have the moral obligation to do what is right. We want to show that business can be done differently.

Meet the founders
Our founders Justin and Philipp are nature lovers, surfers and travellers. Their passions and ideals in life made them leave the comfort of their homes, in search of a life close to the ocean and amidst an environment they cherish the most. After years of employment in tourism, they finally decided to follow their dream and create something inherently new.
The idea was inspired during the many surf and tourism related jobs done over the years. Their environment made them realise that fresh ideas within the industry was yet to be tapped into. The result of many brainstorm sessions and experience related ideas has evidently led to the company.
A place where guests feel challenged and comfortable at the same time. A place where luxury is offered in an affordable fashion. A place where like minded people meet and enjoy the essentials of life; a feeling of home, the outdoors, great food and a community.
This is Outeroutes.
Justin
Hey guys, I’m Justin! Great to have you scrolling around on our website!
So, me in a nutshell:
I was born in Aruba, moved to the Netherlands when I was 15 and lived there till I was about 23 years old. During college I started to travel a lot and fell in love with adventure and exploring new and exciting places. Most of my travels were done in places with crazy nature and awesome waves!
During college I always thought I would end up working as a sustainability consultant. The environmental crises always resonated with me and I wanted to do something about it. After graduating however I never did what I thought I was going to do and instead I travelled some more. I didn’t see myself living in the Netherlands forever and sought out to find a new home.
At the time, I had been working in the hospitality industry and realised that I still had this urging sensation of wanting to do something bigger. I wanted to contribute to the environmental crises, but also follow my other passions in life.
The idea of Outeroutes developed and I am really excited and thankful to have started this exciting phase in life! The company encompases the things I cherish most and can’t wait to share it with you!
Thanks for reading and hopefully we’ll meet soon! Peaceeee

Hi guys, I’d like to share a short story with you.
Once upon a time there was a German guy who graduated in economical engineering to dedicate his time to renewable energies. He loved being part of what seemed to have become a necessity for our future wellbeing as a society. He learned and grew and had a good life in his beloved, yet a bit rainy Hamburg. But there was another call he needed to follow. The call of nature, of a different lifestyle, the call of the ocean. So one day he packed his van and took off. What seemed to be a sometimes intimidating adventure in the beginning, soon became his new life and he loved it. He worked on different continents in all kinds of camps and schools, teaching his favourite sport- surfing. He loves to be the host and to make sure everyone is happy.
When he met his buddy Justin, the process of organically moving towards a mutual project started. Something that allowed them to live the way they liked, to share amazing adventures & their favourite places with new friends and use their creativity to build a new, sustainable concept of travelling. The result is what we call today: Outeroutes.
It was a long and sometimes rocky road until here, but I’m humbled + happy about all experiences and wouldn’t trade it for anything. I’d like to tell you all about it in one of our camps.
Thanks for checking out our web page, I can’t wait to meet you! 🙂
