6 of the prettiest campsites in Spain

Are you wanting to pitch a tent on a remote mountainside or to spend your holiday barbecuing on your bungalow porch by the beach? 

Well, there’s a multitude of campsites in Spain, great for immersing yourself in nature and getting away from it all. Below we’ve listed six of the best places for camping in Spain.

Located within Ordesa y Monte Perdido National Park, Camping Valle de Bujaruelo campsite is spectacular. Depending on your preferences, you can choose between a tent or wooden chalet accommodation. 

From here, you can feast on local breakfast every morning on the terrace. Once you’ve fuelled yourself for the day, you can set off to the national park. Here, you’ll find glaciers which have carved the karstic limestone landscape into canyons, waterfalls, mountain plateaus and vibrant lakes. 

Though it’s just a 5-minute walk from the beach, you may not want to leave the confines of La Siesta Salou Resort & Camping. There are four outdoor pools, each featuring palm trees and tropical plants. 

For families with younger children, there are sections with pool slides and a kids’ club. For a spot of relaxation, you may head to the hot tubs and read a book on the sun terrace.

With wooden bungalows built on a hillside amid the trees, Bungalows del Camping Pedraforca is one of the best campsites in Spain for a peaceful stay.

The views of the two-pronged peak of Pedraforca from each private wooden verandah are a real draw. The mountain’s shape is so rare, it’s considered symbolic of Catalonia. Also, the Cadí-Moixeró Natural Park is just a short drive away. This is a great location if you're after bountiful hiking trails through mountainous terrain. No need to worry about sore legs either, as you can soothe them back at the campsite in the outdoor pool and sauna.

At Bungalows Nou Camping in the Lérida Pyrenees, the chalet-style wooden cabins and spacious, flower-filled porches represent camping with all the trimmings. 

There’s an outdoor swimming pool, games room, bicycles for hire, horse riding and fishing available. 

Spend the day hiking through the mountain meadows and then return to the campsite to fire up the barbecue for an evening feast.
