Glamping is replacing traditional camping
Original source: femina.hu

The trend of glamping — luxury camping with comfortable tents equipped with beds, heating, and designer interiors — is growing. Critics argue that this format eliminates direct contact with nature, turning it into a backdrop. Supporters say glamping allows those unwilling to rough it to enjoy nature and offers a more sustainable alternative to hotels.

Retro camping in Hungary: how people vacationed with tents and caravans

Based on archival photos, the article describes the history of camping in Hungary, starting in 1958 when the first campsites opened in Tihany and Balatonfüred. In the 1960s, large-scale infrastructure development began: communal kitchens, showers, and water supply were introduced. Hungary, as an aluminum producer, manufactured camping equipment: stoves, chairs, tables, and tents. Camping was expensive: a daily ticket cost about 10 forints, and with equipment it was double, while a SZOT voucher with three meals a day cost 15 forints. After the regime change, camping declined, and many sites were closed or redeveloped.

A large category B rest area is to be built on the under-construction D1 motorway section between Hubová and Ivachnová.

Hairpins, Freedom, and Starlink: Three Best Caravan Routes in Slovakia

Slovakia is experiencing a caravanning boom, driven by technology and a desire for autonomy. For beginners, the Spiš-Gemer-Malohont route offers developed infrastructure; for experienced travelers, Orava and Liptov provide mountain challenges; and for adventurers, the wild east from Bardejov to Michalovce offers pristine nature. Slovak law permits wild camping only above 1000 meters altitude and requires strict adherence to environmental rules.
