Travel recommendations

  • Wind is calm — safe to open the awning and leave it out overnight.
  • Sub-zero night (-1.4°C) — drain water tanks and pipes to prevent freezing.
  • High condensation risk — ventilate before sleep and leave a small gap in the roof vent.
  • PM2.5 is 38.1 μg/m³ — unhealthy air, avoid outdoor activities and seal the cabin.

First caravan trip: what every beginner should know

Planning a first caravan holiday requires understanding that towing a caravan differs from a regular road trip. Before departure, check the vehicle's braked towing capacity, distribute weight correctly in the caravan, ensure the hitch and tyres are in good condition, and learn driving techniques for towing. It is advisable to plan the route avoiding steep passes and low bridges, and perform a final safety check before each departure.
