Based on Campspot, an online campsite search engine, an analysis of the best camping spots in 2024 was conducted. According to the new data, the capital of Texas, Austin, is also striving to be among the leaders.

This vibrant region has long attracted thousands of tourists. Austin Culturemap writes about the best camping cities and the finest outdoor relaxation spots in Austin.

According to Campspot's research, Austin was ranked 18th among the selected 24 cities in the United States.

"With opportunities for hiking, rock climbing, and water activities at nearby lakes, camping in Austin provides the perfect balance between city fun and outdoor adventure in the heart of Texas," notes the Austin report.

Where to stay in Austin

As a recommendation, travelers are offered to stay at the Oak Forest RV Resort campground, located less than 10 miles east of downtown Austin and just two miles from Lake Walter E. Long.

Owners of motorhomes, SUVs, and touring cars can stop here for a rest, as well as rent furnished cottages. This option is ideal for a small group of vacationers.
