Camping within 3 hours of Munich

Thank you so much to our parents who compiled this list.

Camping within 3 hours of Munich


Camping within an hour and a half of town:
www.campingplatz-fohnsee.de/
45 Minutes from Munich. Simple campsite in a nature reserve, swimming, valley walks, group sites

www.camping-pilsensee.de/
30-45 minutes from Munich. Nice campsite on a small lake. Windsurfing school in summer. Movie theater in a castle across the street.
www.camping-isarhorn.de
45-60 minutes from Munich. Campsite on the Isar river. Climbing facilities on site.
www.chiemsee-camping.de/
60 -90 minutes from Munich (traffic/starting point). Campsite on a peninsula in the Lake. Great swimming, biking, boat trips to Fraueninsel, climbing center close by.
www.camping-staffelsee.de
90 minutes from town. Simple campsite but every pitch has a view to the water. Great place to cycle and enjoy the lake: electric boats and canoes for rent in town. Cycle path around lake 22km. Possible for grade school kids to bike around the whole lake -- huge accomplishment. Favorite.

www.camping-stein.de it's on Simsee, about 1.5/ two hours from Munich. We also liked the one on Walchensee and Kochelsee. The ones around Chiemsee should be nice, too.

Longer drives:
www.camping-pappenheim.de/
2 Hours away: A cute campsite on the Altmühl River (great canoeing) at the foot of a castle (Festival end of June)

www.eurocamp-koessen.com/
About 2 hrs. from Munich. OK -- it's Eurocamp but we really enjoyed using their pool. I felt like I'd traveled to Holland because of all the Dutch guests. Great area for hiking, biking. Don't miss Hexenwasser with the kids.
www.camping-winkl.de/en/

www.schnitzmuehle.com
Great place for kids and dogs, lots to see and do in the area.
