 1. Location, Location, and Bathing Beaches 

 There are more than 500 camping sites in Denmark and therefore ample possibilities of finding a site close to or in a beautiful countryside. Denmark and its many islands have a coastline of more than 7,000 km, so 70-80 per cent of the camping sites are located close to a coast, either at the sea or within 1 km from the sea. A bathing beach is in immediate reach of many of these sites so a dive will soon become a nice ritual to perform first thing in the morning. Several of these beaches carry the Blue Flag.

Most camping sites are less than 15 minutes’ drive from a provincial town where you can do lots of shopping. 69 of these provincial towns are found under this link, Local Index, which also covers attractions and local sights, etc. At the camping sites or in their vicinity, you will also find shops where you can do your everyday shopping.

There are more than 4,000 cabins in the Danish camping sites, so you can choose from a great variety of cabins, ranging from small 10-12 m2 cabins for short-term stays to large and well-equipped luxury cabins of up to 35 m2 – actually a bit like small holiday homes.

There are many other adults to talk to and get inspiration from, which is something you may be without in your everyday life. You can also choose to do “nothing”, lie down on a deck chair and read a good book while listening to the sounds of nature and feeling scents you do not usually encounter. Or you can experience a welcome peace of mind while looking out on the sea or the fields nearby. Outside the sites you will find lots of activities, including attractions and local sights, appealing to all members of your family across interests. Search in 69 local indexes.

  8. Internet, Hook-ups, and other Technical Stuff 
 Danish camping sites are constantly improving the technical facilities in their pitches, upgrading standard pitches and changing some of them to comfort pitches or luxury pitches. Many camping sites also offer special pitches for motorhomes. Bicycle repair shops are a recent thing, and more than half of the 500 camping sites in Denmark offer wireless hotspots, either for free or for a modest connection fee. So there are lots of connection possibilities, with a “Plug and Play”-like approach. Finally, the sites also have facilities for short-term or long-term storage. Look further here

  10. Camping prices in Denmark
 Prices depend on quality, and in Denmark, you will find sites at both ends of the scale. Sites carrying 0 or few stars usually charge low prices while those carrying 4 or 5 stars are at the more expensive end of the scale. An average level is 60-70 DKK per adult and half that price per child during the busy season. Costs such as pitch or environmental fees, if any, are not always included in the accommodation prices and should be allowed for. The prices for renting camping cabins likewise differ, depending on size and equipment, but as a rule, a 4-person cabin costs from 3,000 DKK and upwards during the busy season. To avoid undesirable surprises, check the camping site home pages, or ask the site managers! You can pay with various debit or credit cards in Danish camping sites. Look further here
