Arne Pastoor, a former fashion photographer, founded rausschwärmer in 2016 and produces customizable folding caravans. He recently presented two new concepts: the onYon tent, inspired by a sea urchin skeleton, and Verschneck, a snail-shell-like tent that can be used as flexible van conversion. The company is based in southern Styria, Austria, and targets international markets.

Camping in Germany hit a record in 2025 with nearly 44.7 million guest overnight stays, up about a quarter from 2019. The used leisure vehicle market also peaked at 192,239 units sold. Experts advise focusing on real specs like R-value and seam quality rather than marketing claims such as excessive water column ratings. A new EU directive will allow motorhomes up to 4.25 tonnes with a B license, and wild camping is banned in most states, with fines up to 2,500 euros in Bavaria.

Viennese mechanical engineer Andreas Janisch develops and sells safety and comfort solutions for motorhomes and camper vans under the WOMOFIX brand. More than 10,000 customers already use WOMOFIX products, and a network of over 70 installation partners across Europe provides fitting and advice. In 2026, JANSTAHL GmbH was founded in Vienna as the new corporate base for further development, with existing activities gradually being transferred from the sole proprietorship.

On Saturday, a collision involving a car towing a caravan occurred on the B18 in Lower Austria between Hirtenberg and St. Veit an der Triesting. The car, registered in Poland, carried four people — parents and two children — who were unharmed despite severe front-end damage. Two people in the caravan were injured and taken by Red Cross ambulances to nearby hospitals. The road was fully closed in both directions for about an hour and a half; the Leobersdorf fire brigade used a hookloader crane to assist with recovery, and police deployed a drone for accident mapping.

In Perau (Carinthia), a German tourist following his navigation system left the Tauern motorway onto the L11 road, which is closed to caravans, and got stuck with his caravan in front of a construction site. Earlier, a truck had damaged a bridge on the same stretch, causing damage worth tens of thousands of euros. Local residents are calling for a solution to the problem of misleading navigation data.
