On-site & Excursions

Important for day-trippers: The gate remains closed after 8 PM. Those arriving later must park outside and walk to their pitch – a hassle when carrying groceries, even if the parking security seemed perfectly fine.

Expectation vs. Reality

Unfortunately, the campsite's website only partially reflects reality. We had to compensate for the lack of amenities with the comfort level of our own caravan.

Conclusion
Conclusion (as of 2019)

Despite the low price, we do not recommend this site due to the time-consuming supply and disposal process (water/chemical toilet).
