Motorhome knowledge for Rhineland-Palatinate

Arrival & Driving Conditions: Rhineland-Palatinate is largely motorhome-friendly: well-developed federal highways run along the river valleys, and there are no tolls for vehicles under 3.5 tons. Caution is advised on vineyard roads – these can be narrow and winding; check access beforehand for large vehicles. The river valleys (Rhine, Moselle, Nahe, Lahn) are flat and easy to drive through, while the low mountain ranges such as the Eifel and Hunsrück offer moderate gradients on well-maintained roads.

Cost overview: Prices for the 2025/2026 season average around €13 per night – Rhineland-Palatinate is one of the most affordable German states!

Overall, excellent value for money – you won't find a more affordable camping experience among the vineyards anywhere else!

Best time to travel: High season is May-October, with the absolute peak during the grape harvest (September/October) – at this time, vineyard pitches are often fully booked and the wine country shows itself in its most beautiful light.

Summer attracts visitors with wine festivals along all the river valleys – almost every weekend, a wine village somewhere is celebrating. Winter is the off-season, but appealing for winter hikes and Christmas markets – 51 winterized pitches are available.
