Sustainability on Campsites

What a lucky thing: Compared to hotels and air travel, camping holidays are a fundamentally resource-saving form of holiday. However, ecological measures are becoming increasingly important not only to campers, but also to campsite owners. For example, many campsites cover their electricity and heating needs with biogas plants. Photovoltaic systems, water-saving techniques in the sanitary buildings and environmentally friendly cleaning agents are also not uncommon.

Many campsites have idyllic natural bathing ponds, great herb gardens or constructed wetlands for a sustainable camping experience. A prime example is the Campsite Holmernhof: At the popular camping.info Award winner in Bavaria, among other things, only native plants are planted, local spring water is used for toilet flushing and the chemical disposal, and environmental education for campers is offered with guided hikes.
