Camping Czech Republic: what we are dealing with

Czech camping for German visitors concentrates on water: the Lipno reservoir in South Bohemia, the Bohemian lake district, the Vltava corridor, and the sandstone country of Bohemian Switzerland. Sites are wooded, lakeside and considerably cheaper than the alpine equivalents, which is a large part of the appeal.

What damages vehicles here, and when

Summer convective storms with hail from June through August, and tree fall in the heavily wooded lakeside sites, which is proportionally more common here than anywhere else in this campaign. Flooding along the Vltava and its tributaries after heavy rainfall. Hail intensity is lower than in the alpine belt but the exposure of vehicles standing under mature trees is higher.

Distance and what it costs to move a vehicle

This is the shortest recovery in the campaign. Munich to Lipno is around 250 km, Dresden to the Bohemian lakes under 150 km. Transport home is cheap enough that it is almost always the correct answer for anything more than superficial damage, and the decision usually resolves in minutes once the figures exist.

Practicalities

EU member but not in the euro — the koruna, which matters for local invoices and their conversion. Czech is the working language, German is widely understood in the border regions, English in the trade. Motorhome repair capability is limited outside Prague and Brno. A motorway vignette applies.

Comprehensive cover rests on your contract rather than on anyone's liability. The insurer bears the cost of the assessor it appoints; an independently commissioned appraisal is, as a rule, commissioned and paid for by the policyholder. We quote a fixed price before any work begins. Detail on that is on who pays for the appraisal.
