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.
The article provides recommendations for choosing a location for winter storage of a motorhome and preparing it for the cold season. It examines legal norms for parking in public spaces and potential fines. Approximate prices for secured parking spaces are given, along with a checklist of necessary procedures.
Experts have provided guidelines for safely storing a motorhome outdoors during winter. Key recommendations include selecting a wind-protected location, using a breathable cover, increasing tire pressure by 0.5 bar, and ensuring proper battery maintenance.
Parking motorhomes and caravans in public spaces is subject to strict regulations. A detached caravan can be left in a residential area for a maximum of two weeks, otherwise a fine of 20 euros is imposed. A motorhome up to 7.5 tons can park without time limits if no prohibitory signs are present, but setting up camp with furniture and awnings is prohibited.
The ADAC camping portal Pincamp has published a ranking of the most popular campsites in Saarland for 2026. Camping Losheim am See in the Merzig-Wadern district took first place again, followed by Campingplatz Bostalsee in Bosen in second. Newcomer Campingplatz Kanu-Wanderer Saarbrücken in Saarbrücken-Burbach ranked third. The ranking is based on an analysis of German campers' usage behavior.
Mercedes-Benz has updated the Marco Polo based on the V-Class for the 2026 season. The camper features a new aluminum double-shell roof, improved insulation, LED lighting with app control, and optional air suspension. Production has moved from Westfalia to Mercedes-Benz's Ludwigsfelde plant. The base 220 d version costs around 80,000 euros, while the top 300 d with all-wheel drive and AMG Line reaches about 122,000 euros.
On Tuesday evening, a motorhome caught fire while driving on the A23 near Heide (Dithmarschen district). One person was treated for suspected smoke inhalation and taken to hospital. The motorway was fully closed southbound between the Heide-West and Heide-Süd junctions until 2:15 a.m. The cause of the fire is under investigation; a technical defect has not been ruled out.
After the introduction of a daily fee of 15 euros, between March and the end of July, on average, a motorhome stood on the parking lot next to the sports hall in Gaildorf only every second night. At the same time, in Gschwend, six motorhomes and campers were parked on the two lots at Badsee and at the multipurpose hall.
Camping Gutshof Donauried in Günzburg has offered overnight stays in four wooden barrels since 2015. Each barrel is 4.8 meters long and 2.4 meters in diameter, featuring a double bed, two benches convertible into single beds for children, a table, a refrigerator, and infrared heating. The barrels require no building permit and no water or sewage connection, which is advantageous in a water and nature protection area. They are in high demand and booked well in advance, but expansion is limited by a lack of staff.
