But are they actually .csv (assuming that's Garmin format)? Otherwise you may need to use something like the (free) POIEdit to convert them so POILoader recognises them.

Can you open the files in Notepad or Excel and see columns of data?

What exactly happens when you try to upload the camping files with POILoader? If an error message what does it say exactly?
You don't normally point POILoader at files but instead at a folder that contains files. The camping POIs should be in the same folder as your Speed Camera files and uploaded at the same time.

I point the poi loader to the folder containing the camping file i have extracted, and the poi loader says that it can not find a csv file.

Have you tried re-downloading the file?
