Germany, a nation of camping enthusiasts

Whether caravan or motorhome - Germans love caravanning. The motorhome segment in particular is driving the industry, with new registrations rising by almost 10% in the first half of 2024.

In 2023, more people spent the night on campsites in Germany than ever before: Around 42 million overnight stays were recorded by operators in this country last year. This was 5.2 percent more overnight stays than in 2022 and 18.2 percent more than in the pre-Corona year 2019.

Interest in caravanning remains high across Europe. However, fewer leisure vehicles were registered in 2023 than in the previous year. Germany remains the largest sales market in Europe.
