The Augsburg district in Germany plans to expand its motorhome parking facilities. Currently, the only dedicated motorhome site in the district is in Königsbrunn, with 13 pitches. The district administration commissioned a feasibility study that identified potential for new pitches in several locations, including Klosterlechfeld. Additional pitches are expected to attract tourists and increase revenue for local businesses.
