Promobil magazine published two lists: seven destinations for retirees in Germany, Switzerland, and Italy, and six campsites from the Atlantic to the Black Forest. Locations include Bonn, Lucerne, the Amalfi Coast, Île de Ré, and more, with details on infrastructure and pricing.

German magazine Promobil has released two compilations of motorhome travel spots for 2026. The first, based on the Marco Polo series book "Bucketlist für den Ruhestand," targets retirees and features seven destinations in Germany, Switzerland, and Italy: Bonn, Franconian Switzerland, East Frisia, Lucerne, the Amalfi Coast, Lapland, and Albania. Each location includes stops from the promobil Stellplatz-Radar app with user ratings and amenities such as gray water disposal and spaces for long vehicles.

The second list highlights six campsites and motorhome stops across Europe, from Île de Ré in France to the Black Forest in Germany. Each entry provides pricing and available services, including gray water disposal and long-vehicle parking. Both publications reflect a growing trend of active travel with motorhomes among different age groups.
