Where to go camping in West Bohemia? These are the TOP 5 for 2026

West Bohemia has long been one of the most interesting camping regions in the Czech Republic - from quiet campsites in nature to family areas by the water. To make the comparison as objective as possible, we have prepared three different TOP 5 rankings for 2026: according to guest reviews on Kempy-chaty.cz over the last 12 months, according to the editorial team's rating, and also according to the most popular type of accommodation - i.e. campsites by the water or with a swimming pool.
top_5_campsites_of_the_western_Czech Republic

This the article is not based on one universal list, because different campsites in West Bohemia score points for different reasons. Some have the best ratings from visitors, others excel in facilities, location or atmosphere, and a separate category are campsites by the water - which have long been the most sought-after type of accommodation in the entire region.

That's why we divided the selection for 2026 into three separate rankings:

  • TOP 5 according to guests and reviewers on Kempy-chaty.cz (last 12 months)
  • TOP 5 according to the editors of Kempy-chaty.cz, based on our comparison and experience
  • TOP 5 campsites by the water and with a swimming poolbecause this type is one of the most frequently searched for

Each ranking thus shows the same region from a different angle and allows for fairer comparisons across different types of campsites.

⭐ TOP 5 campsites in West Bohemia according to the Kempy-chaty.cz editorial team (2026)

The editorial selection differs from the guest ratings in some respects. Not because reviews are not important – quite the opposite – but because we often consider other factors than just popularity when making comparisons.

In the editorial office, we prefer campsites where there is more peace, a more pleasant atmosphere and the surroundings are not overcrowded in the season. These campsites may not always offer the widest list of services, but they often score with exactly what many people are looking for most today: peace, good facilities, a friendly approach and a quality environment in nature.

🥇 1) Camping Karolina – Pilsen region

The unmistakable Bohemian Forest, mountain air and an atmosphere that will recharge you with energy. Karolina is exactly the type of campsite where you will meet Germans, Austrians and Dutch people and the whole place has a naturally lively feel. A campsite that has long been one of our favorites at Kempy-chaty.cz.

🥈 2) Camping Keramika – Hracholusky

A place that has its own positive rhythm – from the relaxed dam to the evenings when teenagers and parents dance peacefully to rock hits from the 80s. Keramika has a great atmosphere and feels like a campsite where people really like to come back. And anyone who has ever tasted the local duck with cabbage knows that.

🥉 3) Beachcamp – Nova Role

We included it mainly because of its location by the water and its simple summer style, which does not look overdone or resort-like. An ideal place for those who want classic camping with swimming and a relaxed atmosphere. A camp where you don't play for attractions, but for a quiet day by the lake.

⭐ 4) Campsite Ejpovice – Rokycany

A low-key, quiet campsite by the dam, where luxury is not the issue, but atmosphere. The facilities are rather basic, but the setting around the water and the opportunity to sit by the fire make it a great place to unwind. Exactly the type of campsite where it's quiet in the evening and peaceful in the morning.

⭐ 5) Camp Vary – Vítkova hora

Karlovy Vary from a slightly different perspective – more forest than city, more nature than crowds of tourists. The campsite will be appreciated mainly by those who want to combine the West Bohemian surroundings with trips to the spa area, but at the same time sleep away from the hustle and bustle of the center. A good choice for a quieter stay.

💡 Editor's note: This ranking is focused more on atmosphere, tranquility and surrounding nature than on the "largest areas" with the most attractions.

 

💦 TOP 5 campsites by the water and with a swimming pool in West Bohemia (2026)

Campsites by the water have long been among the most sought-after types of accommodation in the entire Czech Republic – and West Bohemia offers a really strong selection in this regard. We have included in this ranking campsites that are either located directly by a dam, pond or natural swimming pool, or have their own swimming pool on the premises.

It is not just about one specific environment, but about the overall summer vacation style, where swimming, relaxation by the water, and the opportunity to refresh yourself right "within reach" of the campsite play a major role.

La Rocca comes first in this category mainly thanks to its large outdoor pool and very pleasant facilities. The campsite is great for a summer stay when you want to be sure of swimming even on days when the weather is not quite ideal. The advantage is also the quieter surroundings of the spa area.

⭐ 4) Camping Karolina – Pilsen region

Although Karolina is not a typical "pool resort", water and nature play a strong role here. The campsite is set in the Bohemian Forest and seems to be an ideal place for those who want to combine summer refreshment with peace and trips. Also great for cyclists and a stay with a dog.

⭐ 5) Camping Zámecká Žlutice – natural lake

Zámecká Žlutice is an interesting choice mainly due to the natural lake and the quieter atmosphere outside the main crowded centers. The camp is ideal for undemanding swimming, a relaxing stay and relaxation in the West Bohemian environment. A great tip for those who are looking for water in a natural rather than resort style.

💡 Note: The ranking includes both campsites near natural bodies of water and areas with a swimming pool - the most desired combination for summer camping in 2026.

 

If you did not choose from our selection, or you want to compare other campsites across the Czech Republic and abroad, we recommend that you also take a look at the section Accommodation rating, where you can find current reviews, guest experiences and other tips directly from the Kempy-chaty.cz portal. At the same time, we are also continuously updating the selection in the category Accommodation tips – West Bohemia, where new campsites, cottages and places by the water are being added for the 2026 season.

And one last thing, which every experienced camper will confirm: often in the end it's not so much about where you go on vacation... but mainly with whom. 😉
