Claus, Great, thanks!
I am looking at the example, trying to run it using ant (I have not installed maven). I have ActiveMQ installed and running, but the ant task fails due to SPRING_HOME not being set. I thought Camel (or maybe ActiveMQ) was a sprint implementation, do I also need some kind of spring framework as well?

Yes that is possible. If you have downloaded the Camel distribution there are some examples in the examples folder. There is such an example as your use case however the route is in Java code. But it could be done in Spring XML and thus no java code at all. The example is: camel-example-spring The spring XML file is in src/main/resources/META-INF/spring It setup an AcitveMQ and a CamelContext, that is all you need to get Camel running. CamelContext points to a package where Camel should find classes that are RouteBuilder so it can add the routing. Check the single java file with the Java code for routing. You can then later change that to pure Spring XML There is a README.TXT that explains how to compile, run etc. And then get back on the user forum, we are here to help and listen to users.
