Morphology
The noun phrase combines 'camping' (recreational sleeping outdoors) and 'area' (a region), so its meaning 'an area for camping' is directly and compositionally derivable from the parts. This is a common English noun+noun/compound pattern found cross-linguistically, so a B1 learner who knows both words would readily understand it.
Etymology
The phrase camping area comes from the simple image of a place where people do camping on a flat area of land for tents, fires, and sleeping. That's why it means 'an area' set aside for people to pitch tents and stay.
