Camping boom in Vorarlberg with more overnight stays and new rules

Campgrounds in the Austrian state of Vorarlberg recorded an increase in overnight stays of over 4% last year. Authorities plan to amend the law: the share of mobile homes and bungalows on sites may rise from 30% to 50%, and their maximum size from 50 to 60 sq m. A uniform ban on wild camping, similar to Tyrol's model, is also under discussion.
