Practical writing on running a modern Swiss campsite — compliance, operations and the small decisions that add up to a better season.

Rates loaded, pitch map current, payment methods live, staff trained. The practical list we walk every new site through before the first guest of the season arrives.
Where your guests' data physically lives changes who can compel access to it. We explain what "hosted in Switzerland" should actually mean — and what to ask your vendor.
