Italy – the name alone conjures up images: narrow mountain roads, olive groves, turquoise water, and the scent of espresso in the morning. Anyone who has ever traveled through northern Italy in a motorhome will never forget this freedom. I was lucky enough to experience it myself: Merano in the golden autumn, Lake Garda in early October with its gentle light and almost empty promenades, the majestic Dolomites with their towering rock faces and tranquil valleys. Seeing the Three Peaks at sunrise was one of those goosebump-inducing moments. We stayed overnight everywhere – at well-maintained campsites, charming inns, natural campsites, or simply wherever it was permitted. Italy offers you not only landscapes, but also a sense of life. And you can feel that especially at these excellent campsites.
What makes Italy’s best campsites?
The stellplatz.info Award 2025 is based on over 8 million guest reviews , a minimum number of recent reviews on stellplatz.info, and editorial review. Only campsites with consistently high levels of satisfaction are included in the ranking, and four highly recommended sites from Italy made it into the European top 50.

Why Italy is perfect for your motorhome holiday
Few countries are as diverse as Italy: Whether you love the south with its sea and lemon scent or the alpine north with its Dolomite peaks, cool mountain lakes, and winding passes, you'll always find your favorite spot. The infrastructure for campers is excellent, the people are hospitable, and the food is world-class. And the off-season in autumn or spring is especially ideal for relaxing travel.
By the way: Italy has its own unique charm even in winter. And while many hotels and campsites are closed, numerous RV parks remain open – ideal for anyone traveling during the cooler season.
Whether wine tasting at a farmer's, wellness in South Tyrol or sunset with pizza on Lake Garda - Italy makes camper hearts beat faster .
