Camping in Croatia becomes more expensive than in Switzerland

According to the 2026 price analysis by PiNCAMP (ADAC), the average cost per night at a campsite in Croatia during the peak summer season has reached €73, making it the most expensive among the countries surveyed. This surpasses Switzerland (€61) and Italy (€63). Prices in Croatia rose by 12% year-on-year, while Spain saw a 15% increase (to €58). The most affordable countries are Norway (€38), Sweden (€40), and Germany (€41). The calculation is based on a pitch for a motorhome or caravan with a tow vehicle for two adults and one child up to 10 years old.

Camper Van Tourism Is Booming in Croatia

Camper van and motorhome tourism is booming in Croatia as more travelers seek flexible, mobile exploration of the country. Key drivers include the ability to move spontaneously between beaches, islands, and coastal towns without fixed hotel schedules. Croatia's long coastline, scenic roads, and compact distances make it particularly attractive. However, the boom also brings challenges: overcrowded campsites, illegal parking, and pressure on coastal infrastructure, especially in environmentally sensitive areas.

Why Every RV and Travel Trailer Owner Needs an Emergency Traction Kit This Summer

The article explains why RVs and travel trailers frequently get stuck on soft gravel pads in campgrounds, especially after rain. Key causes include dual rear wheels concentrating weight and highway-rated tires lacking off-road grip. Tow truck calls for RVs in 2025-2026 averaged $400 to $1,200, with many national park and Forest Service campgrounds inaccessible to standard wreckers. An emergency traction kit (a steel claw that straps to the drive wheel) is recommended, rated for vehicles under 30,000 lbs GVW.
