Vacation is the time we look forward to all year. Getting away, experiencing new things, switching off. Being free and independent – and simply enjoying the moment. No wonder, then, that camping, van life, and tenting are becoming increasingly popular. Because let's be honest: we could all use a peaceful break in nature.
When you get into a motorhome, a converted van, or a car with a tent or roof tent, the crucial question usually arises after a short time:
Where are we staying tonight?
Expectation vs. Reality
Often, the journey then leads to a traditional campsite – in the hope of snagging a free pitch during peak season. Once a spot has been found and the overnight stay paid for, disappointment often follows:
You are not alone.
Neighbors to the left, right, opposite. The smell from the barbecue next door, a murmur of voices, playing children, engine noises – and suddenly the dream of peace, freedom and idyllic nature is shattered.
Of course, many people love exactly this kind of socializing. Fortunately, there's a wonderful alternative for everyone else.
The alternative to the classic campsite
Imagine driving to your campsite – and nobody else is there . No cramped pitches, no hustle and bustle. Instead, pure nature: meadows, forests, mountains, rivers or vineyards.
You cook in peace, eat outdoors, listen to nature, and gaze at a clear, starry sky in the evening. Perhaps a mosquito buzzes by – but otherwise nothing and nobody.
That's exactly what private campsites make possible. Through AlpacaCamping , you can book legal overnight pitches on private property – for example, on farms, fields, or meadows. Often, there's only one campervan. If you prefer, you can also find spots for up to three vehicles.
👉 Simply select your desired region, book a pitch and enjoy nature.
The right equipment for campsites close to nature
You just want to get away for a few days and don't have your own camper? No problem. Especially in summer, camping is a wonderful way to be close to nature.
Whether tunnel tent, pop-up tent, pyramid tent or family tent – in the CampFeuer shop you will find the right tent for your outdoor holiday.
And what are the essential elements for a successful day in nature?
Correct: a good dinner .
Outdoor cooking: simple, safe & really cozy
Grilling and cooking outdoors is simply more fun. Instead of an open campfire, there are now practical and safe alternatives:
-
Rocket stove – compact, efficient and ideal for locations close to nature. Powered by small branches, wood or leaves.
-
Dutch oven – perfect for stews, bread, or casseroles. Simply place it in a Dutch oven station, add coals, and you're done. The surface underneath remains protected.
-
Large cooler bag – simply indispensable for cold drinks after a long day outdoors.
This makes outdoor cooking a real highlight – completely stress-free and with respect for nature.
Conclusion: Your vacation, your freedom
Whether by campervan, tent, or van – there are many ways to make your holiday more peaceful, free, and closer to nature . Away from crowded campsites, you'll often find exactly what we miss in everyday life: peace, wide open spaces, and time for ourselves.
Look around, discover new campsites and find out how and where you want to spend your next holiday.
We wish you a relaxing time – outdoors, under the open sky
