Why camping holiday in the Baltic States?
In addition to its cultural highlights and sights, street cafes and restaurants, customs and events (festivals) in the capital cities, the Baltic States offer much more. The destination is also suitable for those seeking relaxation with its wellness offers and its sauna culture. There are miles of secluded sandy beaches along the enticing Baltic Sea coast and many campsites are located directly by the sea or not far from the beach. The Baltic States are also known as a paradise for wild campers. Nature lovers can discover one of the many national parks. In the Baltic States you can expect a multicultural flair and very helpful and friendly Baltic people who have one or the other tip for excursions ready. Traveling is just as safe as anywhere else in European countries. There are modern petrol stations and supply options on the routes. However, you should be careful on secondary routes, some of which can run on unpaved roads.
Campsites in the Baltic States:
The campsites come in all different standards, from simple to luxurious camping. Most campsites have a European standard, but are rather cheaper in terms of price. However, camping tourism is still a growing market. The pitches are equipped with power connections for mobile homes and caravans, service stations for waste water and fresh water supply and sanitary facilities. There is often a sauna right on site, WiFi, barbecue facilities and bike rental.
*This route recommendation presents the campsites in and near the cities of Vilnius, Riga and Tallinn that are suitable for a stopover.

Show newest firstWarum Campingurlaub im Baltikum?
Das Baltikum bietet neben seinen kulturellen Highlights und Sehenswürdigkeiten, Straßencafés und Restaurants, Brauchtum und Veranstaltungen (Festen) in den Hauptstädten vieles mehr. Die Destination ist auch geeignet für Erholungssuchende mit seinen Wellnessangeboten sowie seiner Saunakultur. Es gibt kilometerlange einsame Sandstrände entlang der verlockenden Ostseeküste und viele Campingplätze liegen direkt am Meer oder unweit vom Strand entfernt. Zudem ist das Baltikum auch als Paradies für Wildcamper bekannt. Naturliebhaber können einen der vielen Nationalparks entdecken. Im Baltikum erwartet Sie ein multikulturelles Flair und sehr hilfsbereite und freundliche Balten, die den ein oder anderen Ausflugstipp parat haben. Das Reisen ist genauso sicher wie anderswo in den europäischen Ländern. Es gibt moderne Tankstellen und Versorgungsmöglichkeiten auf den Strecken. Auf Nebenstrecken sollte man dennoch aufpassen, diese können zum Teil auf unbefestigten Straßen verlaufen.
Campingplätze im Baltikum:
Bei den Campingplätzen gibt es die verschiedensten Standards, von einfach bis hin zum luxuriösen Campingangebot. Die meisten Campingplätze verfügen über einen europäischen Standard, sind aber preislich gesehen eher günstiger. Der Camping-Tourismus ist jedoch noch ein wachsender Markt. Die Plätze sind ausgestattet mit Stromanschlüssen für Wohnmobil und Wohnwagen, Servicestationen für Abwasser- und Frischwasserversorgung sowie sanitäre Einrichtungen. Oftmals gibt es eine Sauna direkt am Platz, WLAN, Grillmöglichkeiten und ein Fahrradverleih.
*In dieser Routenempfehlung werden die Campingplätze in und in der Nähe der Städte Vilnius, Riga und Tallinn vorgestellt, die sich für einen Zwischenstopp eigenen.

Na ja, unter einem Reisebericht stelle ich mir eigentlich etwas mehr vor als eine „Übersichtsroute“ und das in 4 Tagen.
Was will man dort sehen, offensichtlich war hier jemand auf der Flucht und nicht mit einem Wohnmobil unterwegs, schade.
Ich war vor 14 Jahren mit dem Motorrad im Baltikum, nun wollte ich mich eigentlich informieren wie der Wohnmobilist die Reise durchführt, leider weit gefehlt.
Hallo! Stimmt voll und ganz - es handelt sich hier nicht um einen Reisebericht, sondern lediglich um einen groben Routenvorschlag, den man für sich selbst nach Belieben im eigenen Routenbereich abändern kann. Und natürlich kann man an jeder einzelnen dieser Stationen auch ganz leicht mehrere Tage verbringen. Reiseberichte und Reisereportagen finden sie bei Freeontour im Erlebnis-Bereich.
Tolle Route; das plane ich fürs nächste Jahr ein - allerdings in umgkehrter Richtung. Mit dem Schiff nach Estland und von dort über Land zurück.
