Biodiversity
Biodiversity is all the different kinds of life forms that live in an environment. It also includes all their interactions. At Camping La Quercia in Lazise, we consider biodiversity a precious resource. This is because we believe it is essential to respect and preserve the nature in which we live, so as to ensure a future in which the next generations can also enjoy the same benefits that nature gives to all of us today.
Therefore, we also want to involve our guests as much as possible in helping us maintain the balance and health of our ecosystem, because they too play an important role in protecting the environment.

Cleaning
We clean the whole campsite with dedication, from the green spaces to the toilets, the beach and any other area of the campsite.
Toilets
- Our staff cleans the toilets several times during the day
- We use a scrubber dryer to avoid the risk of slipping on wet floors
- We carry out an anti-limescale treatment on the walls and jets of the showers once a week
Environmental protection
To promote environmental protection, as required by the ISO 14001 environmental certification, Camping La Quercia carries out separate waste collection and disposal operations on its own, reducing non-recyclable waste and increasing the collection of reusables.
Each accommodation unit is equipped with containers for waste sorting glass, paper and plastic, wet and dry waste. Waste collection for these accommodations is door-to-door.
For pitches, 4 separate collection bags are provided at check-in, in addition to organic waste bags to be emptied at the recycling areas at all toilet groups.
Mini recycling areas (undifferentiated waste, glass, plastic, paper) are also arranged in the main meeting points of the campsite: swimming pools, restaurants, shopping area, playground, reception desk and beach.
Our staff collects waste by means of one of our electric vehicles and makes sure that waste is sorted properly.
Plastic eco-compactors that give a chance to win prizes have been installed in the supermarket area and at toilets no. 5 and no. 7. “You win, the environment wins”: each recycled bottle is worth one point, and the more points you have, the more prizes you win!
