Five European campervan routes and a route through Umbria
Original source: beautytudine

In Brief

The APC association proposed five campervan routes across Europe, while a separate route through Umbria (Italy) features five key stops.

The Caravan and Motorhome Manufacturers Association (APC) has proposed five campervan routes across Europe. These include the French Route des Grandes Alpes (700 km, open from late June to early October), the Norwegian Lysevegen (30 km, 27 sharp turns), the Croatian Jadranska Magistrala (640 km, season from May to October), the Icelandic Ring Road (1300 km), and a route through western Sicily. The routes cover alpine passes, fjords, the Adriatic coast, and glaciers.

A separate campervan route through Umbria (Italy) features five key stops: Lake Trasimeno, Deruta, Todi, Orvieto, and the surrounding area. The route is designed for the spring season and includes visits to historic villages, natural areas, and cultural heritage sites. Specific campervan parking areas are mentioned, such as Area Sosta Camper L’Airone in Passignano and Area Sosta Camper Battistelli Renzo in Orvieto, along with road characteristics (narrow, winding) and available activities (a cycling route around Lake Trasimeno of about 60 km).

Motorhome and bike: 9-day trip in Umbria

Two couples traveled in two semi-integrated motorhomes with four e-bikes on a 9-day tour of Umbria. The itinerary included cycling along the Nera River, Marmore Falls, Spoleto, Norcia, Spello, and Lake Trasimeno. Overnight stays were at agriturismos and municipal camper stops. The closure of the Spoleto-Norcia cycle path was noted as a missed opportunity for sustainable tourism.
