Campsites in Northern Germany

Campsites in Northern Germany: sun, sea and relaxation

Northern Germany is known for its relationship with water. The Baltic Sea and North Sea, the many lakes and four major rivers (Eems, Weser, Elbe and Oder) make it a unique region. If you love water sports then this is the place to be. If you fancy a more relaxing holiday then you can also tan yourself under the sun on a clean beach in the direct vicinity of the campsite.

For those who don’t like travelling far afield, the region of Lower Saxony is an appealing destination. The campsites here are situated near woods, heathlands and lakes. City trips to Hamburg, Bremen and Hannover are well worth your while during your camping holiday.

Further north is the state of Schleswig-Holstein. The coastline borders both the North Sea and the Baltic Sea. This is an oasis for water sports lovers. There are also wonderful towns in the vicinity that are great to explore, such as Kiel, Lübeck and the isle of Fehmarn.

The campsites in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern have something for every type of camper: tents, holiday homes and luxury mobile homes. Those wanting to leave the campsite and looking for a fairy-tale castle should go to Schwerin.
