The article describes a first family holiday in an Ahorn Camp A690 motorhome with a two-year-old child. During the trip to the Netherlands, the child complained about noise from the Renault Master, which the author says is not quiet. The author finds the noise level acceptable, noting that other motorhomes may rattle more, but a large alcove is not a silent dream. The main question is whether the Ahorn A690 is the right vehicle for a family with a child and whether they will survive the camping trip.

Campingpark Kühlungsborn on the Baltic Sea ranked 13th in the list of the 100 most-viewed campsites in Europe, according to the portal camping.info. The ranking is based on page views from January to September 2026, covering more than 23,000 campsites in 44 countries. Five East German sites made the list: four in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern and one in Brandenburg — Komfortcamping Senftenberger See at No. 97. Germany accounts for 47 of the 100 entries, with Insel-Camp Fehmarn the highest-placed German site at No. 7. According to the portal, a standard night at a German campsite in high season costs around 30 euros, compared with over 40 euros in Austria, Italy, Switzerland and Croatia.

Several companies offer motorhome and vehicle relocation services between locations. Customers pay $1 to $5 per day plus a booking fee from $25, and sometimes receive fuel vouchers. Operators include Imoova.com, coseats.com, Road Bear, Apollo Relocations, El Monte, Cruise America, and TransferCar. Conditions include a limited relocation window, full coverage with a $1,000 deductible, possible mileage limits, a deposit, and no bedding included.

On Saturday, 12 September, a motorhome struck a parked car in Warstein, North Rhine-Westphalia, and fled the scene without leaving details, police said. The driver briefly stopped after the collision but then drove on without exchanging information. A witness reported that at around 18:35 on Mönchlandstraße, a motorhome with Soest licence plates touched a car parked at the roadside; the motorhome was occupied by two people, and the driver was believed to be male. Police are asking the driver and any witnesses to call 02902/91000 or contact the nearest station.
