Corona autumn 2020 abroad: camping season extended in many countries
The corona crisis has literally
triggered
a
boom in the caravanning industry
: Despite the late start of the season, more travelers than ever wanted to spend a holiday on the campsite.
The advantages are obvious in times of a global pandemic: Distances can be maintained better, the vacation route can be adapted at short notice and experts estimate that the risk of infection is lower in the fresh air.
It is therefore hardly surprising that many campsite operators have extended their season in 2020 - usually in
Germany
,
Italy
,
Switzerland
or other countries, many of them close their doors at the beginning of October.
"This year, however, many operators want to
extend
the
season in
order to recoup some of the sales that were lost at the beginning of the Corona crisis," explains Uwe Frers, Managing Director of the ADAC camping portal PiNCAMP.
In an article on the ADAC website, he recommends, for example, warmth-loving holidaymakers: "On the
Adriatic
you can still endure it very well in October."
If you like it cooler, you will find
a nice
place in
Denmark
