Buy a rooftop tent: Comparison, price, list, tips

Before we get to the best campsites in Berlin: Tent, motorhome or… rooftop tent (test winner)?

Buy a rooftop tent! Good idea, but which one? Rooftop tents for 1-4 people compared – camping with a rooftop tent is currently becoming more popular. Your own rooftop tent is relatively cheap (from 1,200 Euro), so it pays off quickly compared to the costs for a hotel or apartment. Even better: 100 % flexibility.

The most important advantages at a glance:

Setup time: maximum 1 minute, with practice 40 seconds (Skycamp Mini)
Compatibility: all car models can carry a rooftop tent (with the appropriate crossbar system)
Models: singles, two-person tents, four-person tents, XXL for four people plus sports equipment
Payback: after about 15-20 nights vs. vacation apartment already paid off
Campsite costs: 50-80 % cheaper than hotel rooms

Berlin: Camping Tips

For a camping holiday, you don’t have to leave Germany. Even the capital offers high-quality campsites in the rural outskirts, where you can perfectly enjoy your holiday. In different price classes and sizes, you will find your dream pitch – from the affordable nature site by the lake to the comfortable camping resort with complete infrastructure.

Vacation, relaxation and finally switch off in Berlin

To add some variety to your next visit to Berlin, we recommend a camping trip. If you’re looking to relax and explore the city at the same time, Berlin’s camping sites are the perfect place for you. There are opportunities to rent bicycles and enjoy tours along the Spree and along the Havel shore. Those who like to swim can take a dip in the Nieder-Neuendorfer See, the Tegeler See, or in the Havel.

For those who are often in Berlin and considering owning their own property as a base: Buying a holiday property can already be worthwhile with more than 30 nights per year – combined with renting it out during the rest of the time, it makes an attractive real estate as an investment.

Electricity costs extra: 16-A connection costs an additional 4-6 euros per day at many locations.
Kurtaxe: In Berlin no city tax on camping sites (unlike in hotels).
Season: Krossinsee and Kladow open year-round, Gatow seasonal (April–October).
No rush for New Year’s Eve: Berlin camping on New Year’s Eve is a hidden gem – with a free view of the fireworks over the Havel.
