The camping.info Award:

The 110 Most Popular Campsites in Europe

Every year, the camping.info Award recognises the 110 most popular campsites in Europe and is now one of the most coveted awards in the camping industry. The award presented by camping.info is purely a public award - without a jury or discretionary decisions.

More than 135,000 reviews by over 73,000 campers form the basis for the camping.info Award 2024, which is being presented for the 13th time this year. Thanks to the tried and true formula, which primarily takes into account the guests' satisfaction and the number as well as the recency of the reviews, not only large but also smaller campsites make it into the ranking.
