Why is it called an "Eco Camping"?
- The water comes directly and pure from the mountains, without the use of any pesticides.
- Maximum recycling: Waste is carefully sorted (cans and plastic bottles are collected separately).
- Use of recycled materials for constructions within the campsite (e.g., several toilets and showers are built with these materials).
- Use of solar panels for heating shower water and for nighttime lighting.
- Preservation of nature in its pristine state: In spring, the grass is left to grow tall along with the flowers without being aggressively mowed, allowing a harmonious coexistence with nature.
