Every September it's finally that time of the year again - it's time for all Volksfest lovers - O'zapft is! We show you where you can camp cheap and close to the festival.
The Oktoberfest is by no means an inexpensive pleasure. In addition to beer, visitors to Munich also want to eat something or enjoy the breathtaking view over the grounds from the Ferris wheel. An overnight stay can quickly become a financial challenge. In most cases, many hotels are fully booked months in advance and the prices for accommodation skyrocket.
Tourists from all over the world are drawn to the festival site on the Theresienwiese. Despite rising beer prices - a Maß now costs between 12.60 euros and 13.80 euros - and horrendous hotel prices, the Oktoberfest still has a magical appeal. Still desperately looking for a cheaper alternative to a hotel? How about camping?
Camping at ´Wiesn time`
Camping and Oktoberfest flair? Yes, that's possible!
No matter from where you want to start. We rent out campers at the locations Düsseldorf, Hamburg, Berlin, Halle, Stuttgart and Munich. Pack your friends, get out the lederhosen and travel to the Oktoberfest in the capital of Bavaria.
Unfortunately, it is not possible to set up camp directly next to the festival grounds and you will be fined heavily. But you will find numerous campsites in the area with good transport links to the Wiesn. We show you 5 unusual and affordable Oktoberfest camping options in and around Munich.
During the Oktoberfest the Oktoberfest-Camping offers an area of 50,000 square metres and 500 parking spaces for motorhomes. Whether with a camper, VW bus or caravan, here you'll find everything you need for your carefree Wies'n stay. In about 10 minutes you can walk to the S-Bahn stop ´Riem` and be at the Oktoberfest in only 20 minutes. The approach is via Riemer Straße from the highway exit ´Am Moosfeld`. You'll find well-maintained sanitary facilities, a small supermarket, a souvenir store and, if required, lockers - everything on site at the Oktoberfest Camping Munich.
The Wiesn Camp in Riem
The ideal place for your Oktoberfest visit! To the Wies'n Camp you can bring your own tent, simply move into an already set up tent, rent a tent lodge or arrive with your own campervan. Here you'll also find everything to enjoy your stay: Modern, clean toilet and shower facilities, a souvenir and traditional costume store, an ATM, lockers and WLAN. You can celebrate legendary ´After-Wiesn-Parties` in the Erdinger Urweiße Hütte. You can reach the Wies'n Camp with your camper from all directions. Simply take the A99 eastern bypass to the ´München-Ost` freeway intersection, continue in the direction of ´München` until you reach the ´Daglfing` exit, then follow the signs for ´Olympia Reitanlage` or ´Wies'n Camp`. In the navigation system you enter ´Landshamer Straße`. The entrance to the camp is on Landshamer Straße / corner of Schichtlstraße. The way to the Oktoberfest takes only 20 minutes and you can even walk to the S-Bahn stop ´Riem` in only 5 minutes.
But also the classic campsites in and around Munich know how to convince with excellent pitches and good transport connections.
Camping Munich-Thalkirchen
Wiesn-Camping Thalkirchen - more fun for less money. The camping site is located close to the centre at the raft area of the Isarkanal and you have a great subway connection to the Oktoberfest. From the subway station ´Thalkirchen` with the U3 direction Moosach it is only four stops to the stop ´Goetheplatz`. From there it's about a four minute walk.
This campground is located in the middle of the idyllic landscape conservation area of the southern Isarauen. From sanitary facilities to washrooms with hot water showers and cooking facilities for self-catering, there's plenty on offer. Perfect for Oktoberfest camping. If you want to take some vacation feeling with you after your visit to the Oktoberfest, several hiking trails, cycling routes and sights invite you to explore the surroundings.
Forest Camping Munich-Obermenzing
On the outskirts of the city, near the highway, you'll find another camping site in Munich with good transport connections to the Oktoberfest - the Waldcamping Obermenzing. The bus stop in the direction of the city centre is located directly in front of the campsite. But also the S-Bahn line S2 from ´Untermenzing` allows a quick access to the Theresienwiese. More than 200 pitches for tents, caravans and motorhomes are at your disposal. Thanks to the central location and the very good transport links, this campsite is ideal for your short trip to Munich.
Oktoberfest and camping
Traditional costumes, festival beer and Oktoberfest camping. With the tent, VW bus or caravan off to the Wiesn. Is there anything better than to celebrate with like-minded camping enthusiasts at the Oktoberfest? We don't think so! Even the hangover is much more fun on campsites and a legendary after-Wiesn party should not be missing of course while Oktoberfest camping.
Staying in a camper overnight not only saves you money but also offers you a lot of comfort. Especially toilets and showers often leave much to be desired on campsites. Therefore, you can always use our campers the Porta Potti, a portable chemical toilet. In addition, most campers have a built-in mini fridge that you can use to cool your beer.
Does that sound good to you? Then you're exactly right with us! Book your Oktoberfest camper now, pack your camping friends and have fun at Oktoberfest camping in Munich.
