In Brief

The Badeland Celle site made Europe's top 10, the Fürstliches Golf- und Natur-Resort in Bad Waldsee received a special prize, and promobil readers voted for Germany's best parks.

Several German motorhome sites have been honoured in 2026. The site at Badeland Celle water park was voted among the top 10 in Europe by the stellplatz.info Award 2026. The ranking is based on guest ratings and the portal's transparent system, which includes over 17,000 sites. City officials noted that the site attracts tourists who use local infrastructure.

The motorhome site at Fürstliches Golf- und Natur-Resort in Bad Waldsee received a special prize as one of the ten best in its category in 2026. The site offers 35 pitches on 340 hectares and is open to all travellers, not only golfers. Overnight stay costs 25 euros.

Additionally, readers of promobil magazine voted for the best motorhome parks in Germany for 2026. The winners in four categories, divided by capacity, were announced on 6 February at the Reisen und Caravaning fair in Hamburg. Leading parks include those in Haltern am See, Bernau am Chiemsee, Sankt Peter-Ording and Garmisch-Partenkirchen.

Why the used Marco Polo appeals despite high prices

The Mercedes Marco Polo (447 series, 2015–2019) remains sought-after on the used market due to its premium interior and driving comfort. Fully equipped examples start at around €40,000, while three-year-old vehicles with up to 50,000 km cost at least €60,000. The OM651 and OM654 diesel engines are known for AdBlue system issues and NOx sensor failures, and timing chain wear may occur after 200,000 km.
