According to ADAC, glamping — a combination of camping and comfort — is becoming one of the strongest travel trends in Europe. Instead of tents and sleeping bags, travelers choose ready-made accommodations: from large tents with beds to mobile homes and treehouses. The average price of classic camping for a family of three in Germany is 41 euros per night, while glamping can be significantly more expensive.
