  • Quiet site set in a nature reserve near the Wadden Sea National Park
  • Half an hour's drive from the island of Rømø
  • Bike trips along the North Sea Cycle Route direct from the park
All roads lead to Rømø… or at least they do from peaceful and family-friendly Ballum Camping in Southern Denmark, a quiet and shaded family site in a protected nature area among buttercup meadows, cornfields and marshland on the border between Denmark and Germany. The Rømø here is an isle, the southernmost of Denmark's Wadden Sea Islands, half an hour's drive from Ballum via Route 419 north then the Route 175 causeway west. Explorers can drift easily along to off-coast Germany too, landing on North Frisia's biggest isle Sylt within 35 minutes from Rømø from ferry – but you may prefer to mooch around Rømø for the duration instead as it's home to the widest sandy beach in northern Europe. Ballum Camping is also within walking distance of the Wadden Sea National Park, and close to plentiful walking, cycling and nature trails such as the North Sea Cycle Route running alongside the site. Its Tønder Municipality location is about 20 minutes' drive from the small town of Bredebro, 15 minutes from a bowling alley, an indoor waterpark and an outdoor go-karting track, and – to build a full family day – 90 minutes from Legoland Billund. Facilities at Ballum include a TV lounge, a playground and a small convenience store selling everyday groceries and freshly baked bread. Among the amenities are a heated bathroom block, a baby bathroom, several family bathrooms, a laundry room with washers and dryers, an outdoor kitchen and a well-equipped indoor kitchen.

What customers say

A lovely, natural campsite, noted for its cleanliness, quiet atmosphere, and welcoming owners. Guests enjoyed the facilities, spacious pitches, and handy shop. A great base for exploring, with a dog-friendly space. Minor feedback on lighting and shower cards. Improvements are being made.

Power optional cement/asphalt and grass RV campsite

Liked We loved our 3 nights at Ballum Camping on a 10-day trip to Denmark. Beautifully laid out site, on the ball staff, great facilities including a dishwasher! Very family & dog friendly. You can order fresh rolls, pastries, pizza & bike hire via the campsite app. Pop up food units on various days. Wonderful for cycling & walking in the local area.

Disliked Nothing!
