They go one step further and enter new territory: the pioneers. You can also find people in the camping and glamping industry who carry this pioneering spirit. Here we would like to introduce a few selected campsite operators and glamping providers who dared to try something new.

Austria: Safari tents in the forest

The Natterer See campsite near Innsbruck is a pioneer when it comes to glamping in Austria. In addition to mobile homes, sleeping barrels and, since this year, wood lodges can also be booked. The safari tents at the campsite recently broke new ground for the Alpine region. For fans of unusual accommodation, the place directly on Lake Natterer is a real recommendation.

Germany: Penthouse camping

Waldcamping Brombach in Bavaria offers a wide range of fairytale accommodation. With the Penthouse POD, the Tracking TROLL or a circus wagon, this place is at the top when it comes to the individuality of the accommodation. Hardly any other place offers this variety and a perfect match to the surroundings.
