CAMPING AT LAKE NEUSIEDL

We are all real water rats: Our kids love surfing and kiting, Ullrich and I love sailing. So a suitable body of water close to the campsite was a must. While researching on the Internet, we soon came across the portal topcamping.at. A bit of browsing and we ended up camping in Burgenland on the lake. Podersdorf on Lake Neusiedl offers everything we wanted for a camping vacation with water sports: Sailing, surfing, kiting and swimming. There are also opportunities for Nordic walking, tennis, horseback riding, cycling and hiking. Boredom is obviously a foreign word in Podersdorf. Also the gastronomic offer can be seen including vinotheques with well-known, international wines.

Our expectations were even exceeded! For us, an important element in water sports: wind. Here, it's mainly onshore, strong northwest winds that blow - ideal for water sports like surfing, kiting and sailing. Another plus for water sports-loving families is the shallow water depth of Lake Neusiedl, even though Noah and Sabrina are good swimmers. The "Nordstrand" in Podersdorf is considered the most modern surfing center in the region. There is simply everything here: ample space for surfing, a surf school, a well-kept changing area including hot and cold water showers, a surf store and gastronomy. Beginners and professionals alike will get their money's worth. Children of Noah and Sabrina's age can stand anywhere in the lake, which made them feel safe, especially as beginners. We rented our sailboat at the "Nordstrand" sailing school. We were thrilled with the sailing conditions. Low water depth and steady wind created short, steep waves. With our experience, we coped well with larger wind forces.
