What characterises the campsites in Germany?

Among the 15 campsites in Germany, 3 have a swimming pool, 11 are family-friendly and 13 welcome dogs. The average review score of the rated campsites is 9.1/10.

Match your choice to your party: with young children a pool, entertainment and a fenced play area are welcome, while for peace you're better off at a smaller or more secluded site. Travelling with a dog, check the pet policy in advance.

Comparing amenities in Germany

Before you book, it pays to compare amenities. In Germany the key ones are clean sanitary facilities and hot showers, Wi-Fi, a restaurant or shop, and for families a pool with paddling area, playground and entertainment. Every detail page shows what's there.

Consider the kind of pitch too. A spacious comfort pitch with its own sanitary facilities adds convenience at a higher price, while a nature pitch is cheaper and quieter. For motorhomes, a service point and enough power matter.

Best time to camp in Germany

Most sites in Germany open from spring to autumn. Expect the biggest crowds, warmest weather and highest rates in July and August; book well ahead then.

For peace and lower prices, May, June and September are ideal. The weather is often still pleasant, nature is at its best and you have more choice of pitches.

How do we put this list together?

We rank the campsites in Germany by their review score: the highest-rated campsite is at the top. Only campsites with a rating are included, and the list is rebuilt periodically from the latest data, so the order tracks new ratings.

Ovisola maps campsites, motorhome pitches and chalets, searchable by type and amenities. Bookable campsites are reserved directly with the campsite via our partner; the broader coverage comes from OpenStreetMap contributors.
