One of the biggest trends in camping for 2023 will be the continued growth of eco-friendly camping. More and more people are looking for ways to reduce their impact on the environment, and camping is one way to do that. Eco-friendly camping practices include using biodegradable products, limiting the use of single-use plastics, and leaving campsites as clean or cleaner than you found them.

Glamping tents in different variants, tree-top cabins or luxury holiday homes with different designs are some of the newer ways to holiday. At the same time, there has been a trend towards shorter holidays - both during regular holiday periods, but also on weekdays. Many people want a break from the daily grind. One or two days away from work, household chores and stressful appointments.

Normally, residents of the European Union can travel freely between the 26 European countries that are part of the Schengen area. This means that you can cross the border without having to show your passport or identity card. During the corona pandemic, many Schengen countries introduced border controls to prevent the spread of the virus.

Motorists are currently having to dig deep into their pockets for petrol due to the very high fuel prices. Even the fuel rebate, which was introduced on 1 June to relieve the burden on German citizens, unfortunately does little to reduce fuel prices in reality. After the first week of June, the price of Super E10 fell to just under 2 euros, while that of diesel rose again to over 2 euros.

A record number of Swedish guests stayed at Swedish campsites last year. Swedish guest numbers increased by 13% to 13.8 million and international guests flocked to the campsites at the end of the summer. In August and September, Sweden's campsites had more guests from Germany and the Netherlands than in the same period before the pandemic.

The introduction to this blog sounds very ideal. And in most cases it is. You meet people at a pleasant time in their lives: holidays, freedom, good weather. These are all factors that contribute to a good mood. But that good mood doesn't always come immediately on arrival at the campsite. By now, we know that it is good to leave them alone.
