Camping Park Rules
Campingpark Gitzenweiler Hof OHG Gitzenweiler 88, 88131 Lindau-Gitzenweiler
The Müller-Kutter family and the Gitz Team from the Campingpark Gitzenweiler Hof would like to extend a warm welcome and hope that you have a pleasant stay. We try very hard to make your holidays as pleasant as possible. Please avoid anything that would disturb or disrupt the camp site. On entering the camping park, you and your visitors acknowledge the Camping Park Rules and undertake to comply with these. The rules form the subject of a hire contract for a holiday camping pitch agreed between the site owners and the camping pitch hirer.

On entering the Campingpark Gitzenweiler Hof OHG in Lindau – Gitzenweiler, you acknowledge the following Camping Park Rules.

1. Access to the Campingpark Gitzenweiler Hof and staying at the same is permitted only if there is a valid hire contract for a pitch, i.e. the visitor is registered at reception.
   Every guest is obliged to register visitors or persons not forming part of his/her family at reception before their entry into the Camping Park and to pay the fee per person or the overnight stay fee according to the current valid price list one day before departure.
2. Please have consideration for your fellow guests and avoid unnecessary noise. At night, during the period 11.00 p.m. to 7.00 a.m., absolute quiet is to be kept throughout the entire site. During the midday rest period, from 12.00 noon to 2.00 p.m., noise is to be avoided.
   Loud music is not permitted. If this rule is broken, guests may be asked to leave the site.
3. Speed is limited to walking speed throughout the entire Camping Park - this also applies to cyclists etc.
   Motor vehicles are not to be used within the Camping Park, only when entering on arrival and exiting on departure or for trips out. There is a strict prohibition on driving at rest period times (as a rule, between 12.00 noon and 2.00 p.m. and 10.00 p.m. to 7.00 a.m.). Guests who have just arrived are excepted, in order to ensure road safety. Please take note of opening times of the Camping Park displayed on the notice board.
4. A barrier system regulates entry to and exit from Camping Park. Entrance is possible only if the barrier is released by means of a video camera. A necessary precondition is that every guest has first to register his/her vehicle with the valid numberplate at reception, to allow the number to be stored in the computer.
   Only one motor vehicle per hired pitch may be parked on the spot for that pitch within the Camping Park. Opening the barrier for a second vehicle is possible for loading and unloading purposes. Otherwise, all vehicles belonging to registered visitors or a second car belonging to the guests must be parked in the car park.
   Each guest will have an additional guest number for the barrier system in case of faults.
   It is prohibited in all cases to pass this number on to third parties.
5. The hired pitch and the caravan with awning parked on it is to be kept clean and tidy at all times by the hirer. Waste and rubbish are to be taken daily to the recycling stations. Marking the boundaries of the hired pitch with ditches is not permitted. In our natural Camping Park, we value unsealed ground surfaces. We therefore do not permit the spreading out of flooring for the awnings. Spreading out the airtight membranes kills the turf and subsequent guests will, if it rains, be standing in mud. As an alternative, slatted wooden grids (150 cm x 60 cm) are available at the maintenance area for a small sum. The laying of sealing membranes outside the awning is also not permitted.
6. Waste is to be sorted in an environmentally conscious manner and placed in the specially set up recycling containers, as non-separation of rubbish is against our principles of environmental awareness and would in the long run increase fees for our guests. We follow ECOCAMPING guidelines.
   Guests must dispose of large pieces of rubbish, defective equipment and furniture such as chairs, old tents etc. themselves at the Municipal Recycling Site. If a guest leaves such items without entitlement in the Camping Park or if he/she throws them into one of the rubbish containers, the guest will be charged the corresponding disposal costs and labour directly.
   For breaching this regulation, the guest may be asked to leave the Camping Park without notice.
7. Please treat the facilities and equipment of the site with care and keep them clean. Show consideration for your fellow-guests and behave responsibly. Unnecessary water consumption is to be avoided. Only crockery, cutlery and pots are to be washed in the washing-up sinks. The washing of shoes, bicycles, laundry etc. is only permitted in the sinks specially provided for such purposes or at the waste disposal station.
8. Please always accompany children under 6 years old into the sanitary buildings. Every camper is liable for damage done by his/her children or guests anywhere within the entire Camping Park.
9. We are a dog-friendly site and allow guests to bring their dogs with them. Dogs are to be kept on a lead within the entire Camping Park, on the parking area and on the hired pitch. Dogs may not be brought into the sanitary buildings, the swimming pool and play areas. 25.00 EUR is charged for each individual breach of this ruling. Please take the dog out outside the camp site area. As a dog owner, please show consideration for the neighbouring farms and do not let your dog run freely over the green pastures, as the cattle will not eat any fouled grass.
10. For reasons of safety, open fires are prohibited throughout the entire site. The same applies to the use of spirit or easily flammable substances, e. g. for lighting barbecues or similar.
11. The instructions of the Camping Park administration and its employees are to be followed. In cases of breaches of the Camping Park Rules, the site management may make use of their rights as owners of the property.
12. If you have any questions, please contact our service staff in reception directly.
    Standby mobile phone number for emergencies:  Heidrun Müller, mobile:  0049 151 145 00 550
13. Any previous Camping Park Rules are hereby declared invalid.

In all other matters, the general statutory place of jurisdiction applies.
