Camping
Almost every town in southern Germany has a campsite a short bus ride away. German
campsites are normally well maintained and offer a wide range of facilities.
» The core season runs from May to September with only a few campsites open year-
round. July and August are the busiest months.
» There are usually separate charges per person, tent and car, and additional fees for resort
tax, electricity and sewage disposal.
» A Camping Card International may yield some savings.
» The
ADAC Camping & Caravanning Führer,
available from bookshops, is a compre-
hensive camping guide, in German. Other handy sources include
www.alanrogers.com
and
www.eurocampings.eu
.
» It's a grey area, but wild camping in Germany is illegal. Farmers may be willing to let
you camp on their land if you ask permission first.
