Greece misses out on camping and motorhome market
Original source: topontiki.gr

In 2025, overnight stays at campsites and motorhome pitches in the EU reached 413 million, up 28.5% from 2015, compared to 23.4% growth for hotels. Greece, despite its natural potential, underuses this segment: Law 5170/2025, while expanding opportunities for glamping, simultaneously imposes bans on motorhome parking and tent pitching in certain public areas with a fine of 300 euros, creating a lack of legal infrastructure.
