Glamping conquers the German camping market

The German glamping market is experiencing steady growth: the share of rental accommodations (Tiny Houses, lodges, glamping tents) in campsite revenue is expected to exceed 20% this year. In 2024, the industry generated around €18.5 billion, and by 2025 the glamping market volume is estimated at $210.7 million, with a projected doubling within eight years. Key drivers include high customer willingness to pay, year-round rental capability for winterized units, and increasing international investment. Regional price differences persist: the average overnight cost for a family in Baden-Württemberg is €44, reaching €47 in the Black Forest.
