Austria Campsites |
When we visited Austria
in 1998 we found generally crowded sites in
August with small
pitches, often with large groups of campers together, but
we found a few sites with more room away from the main tourist towns.
We passed through Austria again in May 2006 staying at two sites in the Salzkammergut
region and one in Gailtal valley near Villach. These sites were very good with
excellent even luxurious facilities especially at Schwand, Wolfgangsee.

In 2008 we travelled through Austria
along the Danube on our way to Hungary and returned from the Hungarian
border through the Steiermark region then skirted Salzburg to
Bavaria.

Bregenz |
campsite |
Bregenz |
On the edge of the town at the eastern end of Lake
Constance. The main site can be crowded but there is a rough grass
field used in the middle of summer. Best to have your own
facilities. A typical busy city site. |
Schwimmbad Campingplatz
Hall in Tirol |
campsite |
Innsbruck |
A small town site. We were placed in the small hedged
field with the back packer tents which was ok for smaller vans but
awkward to get on or off the pitch. There is an MH service point at entrance but
it wasn't obvious if we could have parked up outside for the
night. |
Camping
Waldbad.
Dellach im Drautal |
campsite |
Oberdrauberg |
Crowded site next to large outdoor public swimming pool. Pitches well worn with
wooden duckboards used for awning areas
by groups of long term Dutch and German campers. |
Camping
Jodl.
Alt Ossiach |
campsite |
Feldkirchen |
Pleasant smaller site out of village on south side of
lake with terraced
grass pitches but not much shade from trees. Good facilities with
small bar and restaurant with typical Austrian entertainment some
nights. Bathing in lake (cold) and walks nearby. |
