Camping in Austria Increasingly Popular

In the federal state ranking, Tyrol - without the particularly strong overnight summer months - has at least temporarily overtaken Carinthia in the first six months. According to the Austrian Camping Club (ÖCC), this particularly shows that camping is gaining importance even outside the warm season, as stated in a press release on Friday.
Camping and Pitch Sites with Increase in the First Half of the Year
Overall, domestic camping and pitch sites recorded 3,020,022 overnight stays from January to June inclusive. This corresponds to an increase of 12.4 percent compared to the same period last year. According to the ÖCC, citing data from Statistics Austria, camping was most frequent in Tyrol (906,399 overnight stays). Carinthia, which has always recorded the most camping overnight stays over the year, was only in second place with 666,133 overnight stays. Salzburg (322,955) followed by Styria (301,873) took third place.
"Camping No Longer Just a Summer Holiday Form"
"Camping is no longer just a summer holiday form," said ÖCC President Tomas Mehlmauer. "This is also evident from the fact that in Tyrol, camping was most frequent in the winter months of January and February as well as during the ski season until March - and with a clear lead." In the warmer season, however, Carinthia continues to score points with camping holidays by the lake.
