Noise pollution
As caravans and motorhomes only have thin walls, it is important to pay attention to the volume during parties, arguments or other activities. Being considerate of your fellow campers prevents unpleasant situations and contributes to a relaxed atmosphere.
Disregarding the rest period
On German and Dutch campsites, it is often customary to observe a sacred midday rest period during which no motorized vehicles may be moved. It is advisable to adhere strictly to this rest period in order to avoid potential problems. If campers wish to leave the campsite during this time, they should park their vehicle outside in good time to avoid possible complaints.
Similar to the midday rest period, there is often also an evening “closing time” on campsites. It is important to be aware that certain activities that could cause noise should be restricted or avoided at this time to avoid conflict.
Lack of cleanliness in the sanitary facilities
The sanitary facilities on campsites are frequented by many people. It is therefore important to remove at least the obvious residues after use. Tufts of hair in the drain, mud on the shower floor and scuff marks in the toilet should be removed to ensure a hygienic environment for everyone.
Improper use of the sanitary station
There are various sanitary facilities on campsites that meet the different needs of campers. A common mistake made by novice campers is to use the sanitary facilities improperly.
To avoid conflicts, it is important to use the specifically marked areas for the respective activities, as is the case on most campsites. If there is any uncertainty, it is advisable to simply ask to ensure a harmonious day at the campsite.
Conclusion
Camping can be a fantastic experience as long as all campers show consideration for each other and follow the rules of the campsite. These mistakes are often made by beginners, but can easily be avoided. Through mutual mindfulness and respect, everyone can enjoy their camping vacation to the fullest and contribute to a harmonious community.
