What distinguishes Schitterhof-Camping-Weiss is its commitment to providing a peaceful and relaxing atmosphere. In an age where many campsites surrounding the Red Bull Ring are characterized by raucous parties and boisterous motorsport enthusiasts, Schitter-Camping-Weiss serves as a refuge for those seeking respite from the chaos. The operators have recognized a significant demand for tranquility, during events that attract large crowds.

A central pillar of this philosophy is the stringent enforcement of nighttime quiet hours.

How far is it to the Red Bull Ring?

The Advantages of the Schitterhof Camping Area at the Red Bull Ring

The Schitterhof camping area, situated near the Red Bull Ring, serves as an ideal accommodation for motorsport enthusiasts. With only a distance of 900 meters to the main entrance of the race venue, visitors can conveniently reach the thrilling events of Formula 1 or MotoGP within a mere 10-minute walk. This short journey not only enhances the convenience for guests but also fosters a convivial atmosphere among campers, who gather in anticipation of the races.

Another significant advantage of the camping area is its excellent transportation links. Following an exhilarating racing weekend, guests benefit from a swift and straightforward departure. Just 800 meters separate the camping ground from the S36 motorway entrance, facilitating a quick return to their homes or onward destinations. This advantageous location ensures that visitors avoid prolonged traffic jams, allowing for a direct and efficient journey home.

The combination of convenience and accessibility makes it a highly attractive option during major racing weekends.

How loud is it at night at the event site or at the campsite?

Ensuring Peace at Schitterhof Campsite: A Sanctuary Amidst the Festivities

The Red Bull Ring, renowned for its exhilarating events and vibrant atmosphere, is surrounded by numerous party and event zones that often feature loud music and dazzling lights. While this lively environment attracts many, it can also lead to considerable noise disturbances, particularly during nighttime hours. Campers in the vicinity may find themselves amidst the revelry, with intoxicated party guests contributing to an atmosphere that can be less than conducive to rest.

In contrast, the Schitterhof Campsite offers a welcome respite from this cacophony. Strategically situated far enough from the main festivities, it guarantees guests a peaceful night’s sleep. The management prioritizes tranquility and enforces strict regulations to ensure that patrons can enjoy their evenings without the intrusion of excessive noise.

Guests are explicitly reminded that after 10:00 PM, music is permitted only at a volume that can be categorized as “residential.” By 11:00 PM, all music must cease entirely, reinforcing the campsite’s commitment to maintaining a serene environment. These measures ensure that visitors can relax and rejuvenate, readying themselves for another day of excitement at the Red Bull Ring.

In summary, while the surrounding festivities offer a vibrant experience, the Schitterhof Campsite remains a haven of peace, making it an ideal choice for those seeking both excitement and tranquility during their stay.

What if the event at the Red Bull Ring is postponed?

Important Information Regarding Event and Camping Bookings

When attending events, it's essential to understand the policies surrounding changes to dates and cancellations. If the event organizer alters the event date, the camping booking will automatically adjust to match the new date. This ensures that attendees have a place to stay that aligns with the updated schedule.

If an organizer cancels the event altogether, all camping bookings will remain valid for the next scheduled event. This means that you will lose your reservation, and you can look forward to attending the event at a later date.

However, it’s important to note that refunds for camping fees are not an option. This policy emphasizes the need for attendees to consider their plans when making bookings.

In summary, while changes and cancellations can be disappointing, the policies in place aim to provide some flexibility for attendees regarding their camping arrangements. Always stay informed and check the event's official communication for any updates.

When is it possible to depart on race Sunday?

In principle, according to the traffic concept of the organiser Red Bull, it is only possible to leave the campsites after 8 p.m. on Sunday of the Formula 1 or MotoGP. However, as our camping site is very close to the motorway access road, it has been possible to leave earlier in previous years.

However, we generally recommend that our guests stay at the campsite on Sunday and leave on Monday without any traffic jams. Especially during Formula 1, long waiting times on the motorway slip roads and even longer traffic jams afterwards at the Sankt Michael motorway junction are to be expected. 

Is there a party zone?

There is no party zone at our site. There are party tents and much more near the main entrance of the Red Bull Ring, only about 10 minutes walk away. 

Especially for Formula 1 and MotoGP it is very loud west of the main entrance of the RedBullRing. Here the whole night party is made and also the fans in the surrounding campsites celebrate until the morning. From our quiet campsite this area is about 1.1 km away. Noise and light of the party zone are no longer disturbing here.

Night rest?

Have you brought a stereo or TV for your own use? Make sure that you do not disturb other campers. From 10 p.m. onwards, music is only allowed at "room volume". After 11 p.m. the night's rest must be observed and it is not permitted to make unnecessary noise on the campsite. Anyone who causes a nuisance by making noise, consuming excessive amounts of alcohol and/or taking stimulants or narcotics may be expelled from the campsite.

Where can I get cheap tickets for MotoGP and F1 Austria?

Would you like to experience Formula 1 or MotoGP up close at the Red Bull Ring?

Book F1 tickets for the Red Bull Ring now - for you & real F1 fans directly on the Red Bull Ring website!

The official distribution partner for tickets at the Red Bull Ring, GP TICKETSHOP, also guarantees cheap tickets. Here you can also find tickets for all F1 and MotoGP events worldwide.

An insider tip for grandstand tickets, which are available for a relatively long time, is the official website of Max Verstappen. In recent years, good grandstand seats have been available here even a few weeks before the Austrian Grand Prix. 

These are the reputable ticket dealers for F1-Austria and MotoGP-Austria. 

Of course, there are also many other providers of F1 and MotoGP tickets on the internet. However, these tickets usually come with a surcharge and are not as cheap as those from licensed partners. 

You also need to be careful with the campsites. There are providers of MotoGP and F1 campsites who cheekily call themselves "official campsites". These are company constructs from the Czech Republic. The truly official campsites are listed on the RedBull website and all have a colour code. 

Schitterhof CAMPING WEISS, for example, is an official campsite and one of the quietest around the RedBull Ring, where strict attention is paid to ensuring a good night's sleep. 

Booking

Which power output and which power plugs are available?

At the campsite, there is a new and powerful electricity supply. Each PREMIUM pitch and each BASIC pitch (with the additional "electricity" option) are equipped with 230V and 8 amps. The power distribution boxes are located at distances ranging from 5 to 40 meters from each pitch, so campers need to bring their extension cords with a Schuko plug CEE 7/4. These distribution boxes are fitted with Schuko sockets CEE 7/3. It is important to note that the use of "heavy consumers" such as heaters, large refrigerators, or freezers, as well as charging electric cars, is not permitted.




Bring a 40m extension cable with a CEE 7/4 safety plug.

Keeping pitches free for following camping guests is generally not permitted and can only be done in special cases in consultation with the marshalling team! In order to stand next to each other, vehicles should always enter the camping area at the same time.


Additional vehicles can be parked in a nearby car park (not on the pitch!) for a fee. It is generally not permitted to enter the camping area with these vehicles without authorisation. Permission must be obtained at check-in. Camping equipment must always be taken from this vehicle to the pitch on foot.


Pitches are allocated by the Schitterhof CAMPING WEISS staff exclusively according to the ‘first-come-first-serve’ principle!


Are there ready accommodations at the campsite?

Comfortable accommodation in the wooden chalet village

Facilities

How is the power supply?

Electricity access can be booked for each pitch or is included in "PREMIUM". Per pitch only 1 Schuko socket 230 V (CEE 7/3), but NO power current with 400 V is available. If further power outlets are used, they will be cut off from the power supply!

An own Euro plug with power cable of at least 40 m has to be brought along. Depending on the location, up to 40 m cable length to the next power distributor is required. The power systems are not designed for any kind of heating/cooking (electric heaters, cooking/grilling) for operating air conditioners or consumers with high power. The use of such high power electrical loads is expressly prohibited. The use of defective consumers, such as old refrigerators, defective cable drums, etc. is prohibited and in case of non-compliance the power access will be permanently disconnected.

Attention: It is not allowed to operate self-brought power generators!

Since guests repeatedly report bad experiences camping in Spielberg at other sites with the power supply, it is particularly important to us to ensure a functioning power supply at the campsite. We provide for the F1 and MotoGP sufficient power distribution and power (8A per socket). 


What is the water supply like and can grey water be disposed of?

At Schitterhof Camping-WEISS, the central sanitary facilities include WC and shower containers as well as six dishwashing stations. Guests can refill water in canisters and dispose of wastewater at these locations. Additionally, near the check-in area, motorhome users have access to potable water refilling and greywater disposal services. It is also possible to empty your camping toilet in this area. These facilities ensure a convenient and hygienic experience for all campers.

There is a bus stop directly in front of the campsite (red bus shelter). A free shuttle bus stops there during the Formula 1 weekend. This takes guests to the nearest Spar supermarket and back again. Departure times are Friday and Saturday on the GP weekend between 07.00 and 17.30 approximately every 30 minutes.


Hygiene and garbage?

All rubbish should be left on the campsite site in tied bags, separated into plastic, aluminium packaging and residual waste. Rubbish bags are available free of charge in the information area of the camping site. In general, the pitch must be left as clean as it was when you arrived.
