Microcamping: small-scale camping in unique places

Are you tired of camping in overcrowded places, where the terrain fills up and you hardly find any peace and quiet? Then micro-camping (also known as mini-camping) is the solution. Small-scale, affordable and surrounded by nature - exactly how camping is meant to be.

Micro-camping fits perfectly with the trend of slow travel: travelling more consciously, closer to nature and taking more time for unique experiences. With Campercontact, you can find micro and mini campsites throughout Europe quickly and book easily at our partner Campspace. Leave the crowd behind and discover the charm of micro camping.

What is micro camping?

Microcamping is all about going back to basics. You stay in small campsites with a handful of pitches at most. Think a farmer's meadow, an orchard, a forest edge or even someone's backyard. Facilities are simple: sometimes just a composting toilet, a water pump or a fire pit. And that is precisely the charm: peace, space and authenticity.

Whereas large campsites have hundreds of pitches, a mini campsite usually has less than 15. You usually won't find a swimming pool, shop or Wi-Fi network, but rather the simplicity that more and more travellers are looking for.

A micro campsite - or mini campsite - suits you perfectly if you love peace and nature, have no problem with simple facilities, want to travel consciously and inexpensively and are open to adventure and meeting locals.
