50plus Campingpark Fisching
This campsite in Styria, Austria, is a peaceful haven tailored primarily for older travelers and couples who value cleanliness, spacious pitches, and a calm, family-run atmosphere. The grounds are beautifully maintained year after year, with lush greenery and a charming natural swimming pond that becomes a centerpiece for relaxation. Guests consistently praise the exceptionally clean sanitary facilities, though many note that the main washblock is located near the entrance, making it a long walk—up to 200 meters—for those at the far end of the site. The family owners are repeatedly described as friendly, helpful, and professional, offering warm welcomes and attentive service, such as upgrading pitches when available. The on-site restaurant serves tasty meals, including popular weekly grill evenings with live music, but several reviews mention that prices can be quite high and the menu somewhat limited. The pitches are notably generous, with premium options around 130 square meters that offer shade from mature trees and great views, while standard spaces can feel cramped for large motorhomes. The atmosphere is wonderfully quiet and serene, ideal for cycling and hiking enthusiasts, with easy access to the Murtal cycling node system and numerous trails leading to attractions like the Red Bull Ring. A significant drawback is that the site only accepts cash payments, which guests find inconvenient, especially since local ATMs charge extra fees. Another recurring issue is the midday closure from 12:00 to 14:00, during which no vehicles can enter or exit, requiring careful trip planning. The sanitary facilities, while clean, are limited in number—during busy periods only a couple of showers per gender are open, and the far meadow pitches lack nearby toilet blocks with showers. Wi-Fi is generally reported as reliable and good across the camping, a plus for those needing connectivity. Some guests have experienced a brusque attitude at reception, and occasional noise from military jets from a nearby airfield can break the expected silence. The surrounding area is perfect for outdoor activities, with cycling routes like the R2 Murtalradweg and scenic paths to Obdach, as well as visits to Judenburg and the Red Bull Ring. The natural swimming pond, while a highlight, has plant growth that may not appeal to everyone, and some feel the surroundings are becoming too built-up for extended stays beyond a week. Despite these operational hiccups, the overwhelming consensus is that this is a clean, quiet, and friendly site with ample space and excellent staff, leaving many guests eager to return for another relaxing holiday.
