Motorhome sales in Germany are falling for a third year, and rental firm Vanever has gone bankrupt. Also: a new disposal point on Tenerife.
Two years on the road with a cat named Zhuzu — and not a single day of wanting to go back. We break down life in a camper van: where to find water, how heating works, what to do about electricity, and where to look for overnight spots. 7 countries, hundreds of places, and an honest account — from the mountain roads of Turkey to the coastline of Montenegro.
Comprehensive review of all RV and camper toilet types: cassette, portable, gravity, vacuum, macerating, dry flush, sealing, incinerating, composting and separating. Comparison of models, consumables, installation and annual costs.
From May 20 to 24, seven events for motorhomes, campervans, and caravans are held across France. Highlights include shows in Lyon (May 21–25, over 100 vehicles), Brignoles (May 21–24), and Bourges (May 22–25), plus private Malibu sales with discounts up to €7,200 and accessory promotions.
From 23 to 27 April 2026, 14 exhibitions and open days dedicated to motorhomes, camper vans and vans will be held across France. Events include shows in Angoulême, Nîmes, Grenoble, Tarbes, La Rochelle, the 105th anniversary of manufacturer Notin in Panissières, and the 8th Camper Van Weekend in Brissac-Quincé. Admission to most events is free.
From 25 to 28 June 2026, the 16th motorhome rally in La Chèze expects over 200 participants. Earlier, from 4 to 7 June, four motorhome events took place across France.
AireServices has opened a new connected service area for motorhomes in Cerdon (Loiret), located on the edge of the communal pond. The facility covers 2,500 m² and offers eight pitches, with integration into the Qipeo app for remote booking, payment, and service activation, as well as real-time information. The price is €5.88 per 24 hours, and the site is open year-round.
In France, 15 caravans blocked a parking lot at the lower station of the Téléphérique du Salève in Étrembières near Geneva, causing the cable car to Mont Salève to stop for two days. Mayor Nicolas Tereins said operations were halted because buses could no longer stop at the station. During peak season, up to 1,000 people per day use the cable car, and the interruption is estimated to have caused €10,000 in lost revenue. The cable car is expected to reopen on Wednesday, with operators working on alternative parking.
On August 16, around 250–300 caravans occupied a private plot near the Laurent-Ricci sports ground in Saint-André-de-Cubzac, sparking reactions on social media. Mayor Mickaël Courseaux stated that the installation occurred without authorization from the municipality or the owner. The group had initially planned to go to a site in the Arcachon basin but was unable due to fires. Authorities took measures to ensure safety, manage waste, and began discussions for compensation. The mayor also proposed revising the departmental plan for traveler accommodation.
An administrative court ruled that height-restricting barriers and camper-specific parking bans in La Faute-sur-Mer and Longeville-sur-Mer (Vendée) are illegal. The barriers in La Faute-sur-Mer must be removed as they were not justified by a real danger. In Longeville-sur-Mer, signs banning campers were invalidated because the pictogram is not in the French Highway Code and the procedure was flawed. The court affirmed that campers are treated as cars for parking but allowed targeted restrictions if properly enacted. France saw 25,629 camper registrations in the 2023-2024 season.
French municipalities install height barriers to keep motorhomes off regular parking spots, but such measures are not always legal. In 2024, an administrative court in Nantes ordered two municipalities in Vendée (Longeville-sur-Mer and La Faute-sur-Mer) to remove barriers and signs and pay €1,500 each in legal costs to the CLC. However, in April 2026, a court in Bordeaux upheld a parking restriction for motorhomes in Royan, citing road safety and coastal protection. Motorhomes are classified as M1 vehicles, but this does not grant unlimited parking rights, nor does it allow overnight camping outside designated areas.
A fire broke out in a caravan on Tuesday, August 25, 2026, in Les Sorinières, a commune south of Nantes (Loire-Atlantique). The flames, out of control, spread to a hedge of conifers and then to a residential building. Residents of at least seven apartments will need to be rehoused.
