The choice of destination largely determines the success of a training camp. Travel, climate, pitch quality and budget all play together. Here's an overview of the most popular locations for clubs from Austria, Germany and Switzerland.

Croatia / Istria

Ideal for: a short journey and seaside hotels.

Istria is a classic: on site within roughly 4–6 hours, modern sports centres in Umag, Medulin and Poreč, plus a mild spring climate. Perfect for teams that want to combine training and recovery.

Slovenia

Ideal for: a central location and great value.

Slovenia scores with immaculately kept sports centres, green nature and a very short journey. Locations like Kranjska Gora or Bled offer professional conditions in quiet surroundings.

Austria

Ideal for: altitude training and the shortest distances.

If you don't want to travel far, Saalfelden or Windischgarsten offer first-class facilities – some at altitude for an extra training stimulus.
