Campingplatz Wappenschmiede

We struggled to get there, winding through the village. It is very narrow and there were also a lot of people. Arriving without a reservation, we found it was full – yes, I saw that too. That can happen and it's not a problem. The place was truly packed. Even if they had a spot, I wouldn't want to be squeezed in among others. So, we had to go back. Backwards with the caravan since there was no room to turn around. Backwards down the whole narrow street until we could finally turn. And then? Nothing indicated how to exit this (beautiful) village. It was extremely tight, but we made it out unscathed, though with many beads of sweat. So, before heading to this campsite, it’s best to call and check if they have availability, because you can’t just easily get out.

A very beautiful spot in the midst of nature.

Small cozy campsite right next to the Palatinate Forest in Sankt Martin. I was here as a small child and visited the site again for the first time in decades in 2022. The sanitary facilities are clean and in very good condition. Everything is not ultra-modern, but it is still a clear recommendation.

Very nice site managers. We were on the upper terrace. This had plenty of sun. The number of sanitary facilities showers, toilets is too low when fully booked. The path to the toilets at night is a bit dark. The site is well suited for a weekend or short vacation.

Shady and quiet, by the babbling brook. Super delicious gastronomy!!!

We were at the site for 8 nights in the second week of the Easter holidays. A nature-friendly campsite with an ideal starting point for hiking or biking in the vineyards or in the Palatinate mountains. We cannot confirm that the site is dark. Those who visit this place experience camping in the original sense. The staff, especially the campsite manager Helge, were very friendly. The sanitary facilities were always clean, and the restaurant at the Wappenschmiede rounded off our positive overall impression of the site. Sankt Martin can be reached on foot in 10 minutes, and it is easy to taste a wine or two here at the wineries. Numerous hikes are also possible directly from the campsite, for example to the Kalmit. We are happy to come back.

Located at the edge of the forest, a small oasis of peace with very friendly staff. Sanitary facilities always very clean! Great starting point.

The pictures on the website unfortunately mislead about the actual conditions: the pitches of the campsite are on the left and right of the access road, very narrow, also towards the neighbors. You are practically sitting on the plate of presentation. So for us, it was more of a bad RV parking spot than a campsite. Due to the tall trees on both sides right behind the pitches, the entire place seems dark. We arrived after a cloudburst, and the last available spot assigned to us was pure mud; we would have sunk with our camper van in it. The site manager was very friendly (therefore 2 stars), apologized that there was no choice of pitch left since we were the last to arrive. But that wouldn’t have changed anything. We did not stay, we were simply disappointed by the misleading photos online. We can't say anything about the other facilities.
