Opinions differ when it comes to vacation. While one is happy in a sleeping bag on a ledge, the other can't last two days without his bathtub. Things get complicated when the discrepancies occur within a partnership. Should you always forego a vacation together? There are better solutions, for example glamping!
What is glamorous camping all about?
Glamping comes from the combination of the two English words “glamorous” and “camping” and stands for “glamorous camping”. This fairly new type of holiday is enjoying growing popularity and is now available in locations all over the world. Glamping is the perfect combination between a holiday close to nature and that little touch of comfort that many holidaymakers don't want to miss out on. Camping is an inexpensive way to spend the night, but it is also uncomfortable and sometimes not very hygienic. That may not be a problem when you are young, but if you have one If you have a stressful day at work, you want to relax properly on vacation. However, if you stay in a fancy hotel, you have little contact with nature and often have to travel further afield to hike in the mountains or relax by an impressive lake. Glamping combines the advantages of these ways of traveling. You are close to nature, experience the most beautiful landscapes and can start yoursporting activities such as hiking, cycling, mountaineering or swimming right on your doorstep and still have amazingly comfortable and glamorous accommodation. The biggest advantage is the convenient way to get there, because unlike a tent or motorhome, which you have to take with you when camping, the accommodation for glamping is already on site. This means you can even go glamping in places you would never be able to reach with your trailer or all the camping equipment.
What are glamping accommodations like?
You can camp in a tree house or a luxurious tent with a double bed as well as in a spacious camper van. You can travel stress-free and simply make yourself comfortable in the accommodation, which is already perfectly furnished. This means you can be close to nature without straining your back in a tiny tent or queuing at dingy communal washrooms for a spot in the shower.
Glamping “across the pond” – luxurious camping in the national park, USA
Like many other great trends, glamping originally comes from the USA, which is why you can of course find particularly exciting accommodation there. For example, you can experience absolute closeness to impressive nature in a luxury tent that stands on the western edge of the Great Smoky Mountains National Park in Tennessee . The facility consists of around 50 well-equipped tents and very well-equipped washrooms. The attached restaurant provides glampers with delicious food, and of course the typical BBQ shouldn't be missing. Behind the name Great Smoky Mountains , which the natives gave this place because of the frequent fog, lies one of the most beautiful places in the entire world that will make every nature lover's heart beat faster. The park is covered by a forest that is one of the oldest forests in the world and is the largest area of virgin forest in the eastern United States. Even though eight to ten million visitors flock to the park every year, its side paths and hiking trails are rarely used, so you can enjoy nature in peace. Raging floodwaters in a wild river, impressive mountain landscapes, waterfalls and numerous black bears, from which you should keep a respectful distance, make the fascination of this unique flora and fauna. In the south of the park there is a reservation of the Cherokee Indians, who put on their play every year that tells of their expulsion.

Spending the night in a tree house is particularly popular because it makes long-lost childhood dreams finally come true.
France
It's not far to France , but as a glamper you're in a completely different world. There are particularly beautiful lodge tents here that can comfortably accommodate an entire family and still do not lack the necessary luxury that you want for a relaxing holiday. In addition to comfortable beds, these often also include a separate dining area, a private toilet and shower, as well as a refrigerator and deck chairs. If you are traveling with children, it is best to stay in an area that offers enough activities for the little guests. This means parents can also enjoy a relaxing holiday.
Italy
Italy has always been one of the most popular holiday destinations for Germans, and glamping opens up completely new horizons. Whether it's a mobile home, a lodge tent or a small chalet , you can be very close to nature and the happy people while glamping. If you stay right by the sea, you will experience Italy at its most beautiful and can really relax on your well-deserved vacation.
Glamping makes camping socially acceptable and combines the advantages of different types of vacation. Once you've tried it, you won't want to miss it.
