From Idea to Tent Peg: Building Our Elevated Tent Pitches T22 & T23
If you love pitching your tent close to nature—without cars rolling past your guy lines—our new elevated tent pitches T22 and T23 were made for you. These car‑free spots combine a beautiful, slightly raised setting with practical touches like nearby parking, an adjacent small paved camping street (great for a friendly game of badminton), and the relaxed vibe that defines Camping Drei Spatzen. In this behind‑the‑scenes look, we share why we created our elevated tent pitches T22 and T23, how they fit into our car‑free tent field along the Michelbach stream, and what you can expect when you settle in for a peaceful stay.
Why We Created Elevated Tent Pitches T22 & T23
Designing great tent places starts with one simple idea: keep campers close to nature and far from stress. Elevated tent pitches often deliver better views and naturally drier ground, while preserving the soft, living character of a tent field. With T22 and T23, we wanted to:
- Keep the experience truly car‑free while allowing you to park nearby for convenience.
- Offer a slightly raised, natural spot that feels private and comfortable.
- Place the pitches by a small paved camping street that doubles as a safe, social space—perfect for a quick game of badminton.
- Add choice at the front part of our campsite for guests who like to be a short stroll from the heart of campground life.
These principles mirror the broader spirit of our car‑free tent area: tent‑first design, gentle integration with the landscape, and space to enjoy simple outdoor pleasures.
Where T22 & T23 Sit in Our Car‑Free Tent Field
Our car‑free tent sites run alongside the lovely Michelbach stream, with nature all around and a large nature reserve just steps away. We’ve thoughtfully positioned tent spots to follow the valley’s natural contours—T22 and T23 included—so no two places feel the same.
- Location: Front part of the campsite, on nicely elevated ground.
- Street access: A small paved camping street sits close to both pitches—handy for moving gear and perfect for casual play.
- Parking: Car‑free at the pitch, with parking conveniently nearby.
- Energy & essentials: Our car‑free tent sites have their own power connection, and Wi‑Fi is included in the pitch price. Water, drainage, garbage tax, and showers are also included.
- Family‑friendly setting: One of our two playgrounds and the natural creek‑side play area are a short distance away.

Designing With the Landscape, Not Against It
Our tent sites follow the natural shape of our beautiful valley. That choice helps preserve the soft ground tent campers prefer, supports natural drainage, and keeps the visual rhythm of the field feeling organic rather than engineered. Elevated tent pitches like T22 and T23 fit seamlessly with this approach: they add gentle height and character without isolating you from the social, friendly life of the campsite.
A few design principles we apply across our car‑free field:
- Minimal footprint: Keep cars off the grass to reduce soil compaction and protect turf health.
- Natural spacing: Let the terrain guide where tents fit best, so each pitch feels comfortable and unique.
- Easy movement: Place a small paved street nearby for smooth access and spur‑of‑the‑moment play.
- Family flow: Keep playgrounds and the creek‑side nature play area within a short walk, without bringing noise right onto your pitch.
