The portal stellplatz.info has published a ranking of the best motorhome sites in Europe, based on 7.8 million reviews of 17,000 sites in 42 countries. Two sites from North Rhine-Westphalia made the top 50: Ferienhof Verse in Sauerland at 41st place and "Glückauf" in Bochum at 44th. Six German sites were in the top ten, with the first place going to a panoramic site at a winery in Bavaria. Only sites with at least 100 reviews and an average rating of 4.5 out of 5 were considered.

Separately, in Rhineland-Palatinate, official free motorhome sites remain available in natural areas or quiet towns. Some offer paid extras like electricity, water, or waste disposal. Stays are limited, and voluntary donations are recommended.
