Eco holidays and eco trips are en vogue. Travellers want to see the world, explore places surrounded by nature, discover food that is typical of a region. What they don't want is an environmentally damaging journey. They don't want to stay in a giant hotel complex and they don't need all-inclusive programmes with all-round entertainment as it is offered by some hotels.

There should be a focus on the use of regional and seasonal produce. Furthermore, the working conditions for employees should be fair. On site, environmentally friendly activities should be promoted.
Is glamping always sustainable?
No matter which holiday option you go for, it leaves its mark on the environment. But if the place is chosen wisely, this can have a positive impact on sustainability.
Especially when camping, you are on the right track in terms of keeping your ecological footprint as small as possible. Communal sanitary facilities and the nature-friendly design of rental accommodations make an important contribution. Energy efficiency and waste prevention at the campsite play another major role.
Glamping does not automatically have to be sustainable. However,glamping accommodations offer ideal conditions for an eco holiday. The design and equipment are well thought out and adapted to nature.
Interference with nature by sealing the soil is rarely necessary. Luxury tents are often set up directly on the ground or on wooden tent platforms, while treehouses are up in the air.
