Overview
- A German camping family’s tally cites roughly €236 per day and about €3,300 for two weeks, including a €1,600 pitch that was around €500 a decade ago.
- Local associations report weaker trade, with estimated booking and revenue declines of about 10–20% and expectations of softer traffic in late August.
- Hoteliers around Lazise say peak-season occupancy has slipped to roughly 70–80%, reflecting fewer last‑minute bookings.
- Visitor patterns are shifting toward more Northern and Eastern European guests, many as day-trippers who spend less in shops and bars.
- Operators blame pricier fuel, tolls and public transport, plus longer Brenner drives that now take about seven hours from Bavaria instead of five.
