Campers are nature-loving people who also want to do something in the great outdoors.

In the Outdooractive travel guide, we have been featuring campsites alongside all types of accommodation for many years. With the increasing reach of the Outdooractive platform on more than 2,500 digital channels, it is becoming increasingly important that campsites are also presented there.

Hartmut Wimmer presented how destinations can bring these topics together.
