This tag provides a way to specify individual pitches within a campsite (a.k.a. campground) or caravan site (RV Park).

A "camp pitch" in this context is the free space used to place a tent or or caravan within a tourism=camp_site or tourism=caravan_site area.

Usually only one caravan is permitted on an individual pitch, but more than one tent may be allowed on a single pitch in some cases.

How to map

A camp pitch is tagged either as a node node located at the pitch identifying post or sign, or a area way around the boundary of the pitch if this area is clearly verifiable (for example, if there is a fence or border around the individual pitch area).

The pitch must be located within an area tagged tourism=camp_site or tourism=caravan_site

The following tags should be placed on the point or way:

Tag Description
tourism=camp_pitch This is a pitch for a tent, caravan or motorhome.
ref=* If a specific pitch has an identifier; usually on a post, sign or map; use the ref tag to record the identifier.
addr:unit=* If the campground has a street address with official unit numbers for each camp pitch, then in addition to using ref=* a addr:unit=* may be used. However, not all campgrounds have street addresses so using ref=* is the more generally relevant option.

Example

tourism=camp_pitch + ref=A12

tourism=camp_pitch + ref=230 + addr:unit=230
