Wies'n Camp
Oktoberfest accommodation for backpackers and low budget tourists.
This is the Oktoberfest campsite full of pissed-up Aussies. Yet it's safe and quiet because they have good security patrols.
Campsite at the Olympic Horse Stadium in Munich-Riem. It is 20 minutes travel time from the Oktoberfest. Take the S-Bahn S6 (metro train) from the
Oktoberfest site (station 'Hackerbrücke') in the direction 'Erding' or 'Markt Schwaben' and exit the train at 'Riem'. Then follow signs for 'Wiesncamp'. Train journey 10 min, 5 mins walk at each end.
You can rent 1 tent (including up to 4 persons) per night for €45 from Sunday to Thursday or €55 on Friday and Saturday. They take a deposit of €50 per tent which you get back at departure if the tent is not damaged. The fee includes restrooms and hot showers. Breakfast, food, and drinks are extra and the car park is €8 per night.
Single travellers are supposedly forbidden from sharing a tent with other single travellers met at the site. But I guess they can't enforce that if you pretend to be old friends.
