For a holiday, go to Tirol!

Camping in Tyrol is a great choice for a holiday destination for the whole family. Since tourism in Tyrol plays a huge role, we can be sure that the tourist facilities here are at the highest level. Tyrol is crowded with tourists, especially in the winter season, when winter sports enthusiasts flock to numerous ski slopes. It's good to know that the beginnings of tourism in the region date back to the 18th century. In recent years, despite difficult socio-political and economic conditions, tourism has turned out to be a branch of the economy resistant to the crisis. In many Tyrolean valleys, tourism is the primary source of livelihood while providing jobs in trade and agriculture.
