Awards and criteria
But what about the awards? The award is based exclusively on the reviews of campers who have personally experienced the sites. The votes have been collected and weighted over the last five years. The average overall impression and the timeliness of the reviews are taken into account. A campsite can only sneak into the rankings with at least 25 reviews, which strengthens the authenticity and reliability of the rankings Focus reported.
The awards mentioned are not only a confirmation of their work for the operators, but also a particularly valuable signal for the campers who are planning their vacation. Germany and Bavaria in particular are doing everything right in this context, and the high number of excellent places speaks for itself. With 24 campsites in the entire ranking, we are well represented in this country.
A Bavarian site that has made it into the list of the best German campsites is Camping am Pilsensee. It takes 6th place in Germany, while the Demmelhof campsite in Bad Tölz-Stallau comes in 7th place. The Bankenhof in Hinterzarten also stands out and is recognized as the best campsite in Baden-Württemberg, a place that many campers would like to have.
For everyone who wants to relax in nature and enjoy the beauty of the landscape, the designated places are a real invitation. So, set off on an adventure and pitch your tents where it is most beautiful!
