Camping in Corona Summer - An overview of the current situation

The corona pandemic still holds the world tightly in its hands. But slowly a light seems to be visible at the end of the tunnel. Admittedly, the virus is far from gone, but currently it looks pretty good for the coming summer. Weeks ago there was constant talk of increasing numbers of infections, these are currently falling sharply. Suitable for the start of summer, it seems. Because the falling numbers are finally moving in many regions Tourism back into focus. And at the start of the warm season, the campsites are opening their gates again. And not just in Germany. Other European countries are also gradually opening their campsites and hotels. In other European countries, however, the existing Entry restrictions and quarantine rules get noticed.

When to book a camping holiday?

The past Corona summer showed it, as soon as vacation and camping are possible, all places are in a short time booked up. Those who were looking for a place to stay spontaneously usually came away empty-handed. And we estimate it to be similar this year too. That's why you should before the start book a pitch for your camping holiday (for example on camping.info) to prevent chaos and disappointment in the seats. Because if you arrive spontaneously at a campsite without a reservation or booking, you will probably no longer get a parking space and will end up empty.

By the way, similar to the camping.info portal (Link see above) can also be found here in Germany via the Portal Pincamp Receive information on German campsites. Because in this portal, with more than 1500 places, almost half of all systems in Germany can be viewed directly. Bookings can of course also be made ad hoc. As a rule, particularly high-quality campsites can be viewed via Pincamp. And for those who do not want to stay in Germany, there are more than 10 systems listed across Europe.

If you have found a campsite for your vacation, you should Before you travel be inquired about the current corona situation on site. Especially with a longer journey to the campsite should be possible Exit restrictions to be respected at night. Because for campers this usually means It is forbidden to spend the night on the side of the road! Normally, an overnight stay in public places is in the vehicle no problem, as it is to restore the fitness to drive serves. But this is limited to a maximum 10h.

However, due to the current Corona rules, there is also a risk of a fine for campers on the roadside or in parking lots in the event of a curfew. Therefore, it is particularly important to check the travel route and the time well in advance. So Travel during the day and if possible without an overnight stay. The trip shouldn't fall into a possible night curfew.
