Camping

Experience Schleswig-Holstein on the move and close to nature, and get inspired for your next camping holiday. 

Camping is cult in Schleswig-Holstein, whether in a tent, in your own caravan or in a motorhome. Camping for rent is also possible - in your own mobile home, in a holiday home or, how about a holiday in a houseboat or "sleeping in a barrel"? Camping holidays between the seas in Schleswig-Holstein offer all this and much more. There is a large selection of pitches, ranging from quiet, tranquil family pitches to holiday resorts with sporty and active activities and pitches with a club character. However, if you want to swap your mobile home for a very special overnight adventure in the great outdoors for one night, the sleeping beach chair is just the thing.
