Roof tents for cars are becoming increasingly popular in Austria. The company Wilded from Gamlitz (southern Styria) develops and sells such tents worldwide, with demand remaining high: according to founder Nikolaus Musger, they regularly sell out during the year. The tents weigh between 30 and 80 kg, can be set up in minutes, and accommodate up to six people. Last year, Austria recorded a record number of around 8.8 million overnight stays at campsites, marking the fifth consecutive record year.
