Motorhomes head to Karelia, but infrastructure lags behind tourists
Original source: Карелия.Ньюс

Travel by motorhomes and caravans is gaining popularity in Russia, but tourists lack equipped sites with water, electricity, and services. According to the RV Land project, by May 2026 there were about 32,200 owners of such vehicles in Russia, and by July the number of accepting facilities reached 469, though many are not specialized. Due to the shortage of infrastructure, travelers are forced to stop on unequipped territories. In 2027, the Grand Seliger resort plans to open the first caravan site, and M9 Development is considering sites near Lake Ladoga in Karelia and in Teriberka.
