With the camper through Austria
Austria is known for its rugged and mountainous area, so watch out! In general, semi-integrated motorhomes are the easiest motorhomes for mountain journeys, but with a large alcove it should also work. Below the tips, so that you keep your head cool.
- Of course, you don't get a camper to the top as quickly as a regular passenger car. As a first piece of advice, it is important to stay calm. If necessary, stop every now and then to let the passenger cars go in front of you.
- Another useful tip is to drive outside rush hour. This way you keep the peace and you do not just end up in traffic jams.
- If you go up, put the engine in a low gear. If you find yourself losing too much traction, downshift to a lower gear.
- Keep a close eye on the temperature. Prevent it from entering the red zone.
- Do not drive down the mountain with too much speed. Also put the camper in a low gear. You obviously want to conserve your brakes as much as possible, so it's best to slow down on the engine. If you must brake, brake quickly and firmly.
- As you approach a bend, slow down in time and downshift. For hairpin bends, you turn wide in and tight out.
- Anticipate well. Make sure you have space, make sure that you have to pass an oncoming vehicle in a bend. Stop a bit before the bend, if necessary, so that you do not get stuck.
We are ready for all your questions, so if there is anything that is not entirely clear, ask us immediately! We can help you with a good preparation and with our years of experience we can provide you with the best tips.
ContactThe activities
During your camper trip Austria you can go anywhere. Whether you go for a city trip or an active holiday, everything is possible during your motorhome trip through Austria!
- Vienna
Perhaps very obvious, but you cannot miss the Austrian capital during your motorhome trip. You can easily park the camper on the edge of the city, where you can also spend the night at a Camperplaats. It is wise to continue the rest of your journey through the city by public transport. Vienna is of course known for the rich history of various composers who came to the city. This can still be seen to this day. A visit to the Vienna State Opera is highly recommended.
Vienna State Opera- On the way to Tyrol
Tyrol is not only fun in winter; Tyrol is very beautiful to visit in the summer. For example, the medieval city of Innsbruck might be something for you! A beautiful characteristic city where you can enjoy yourself. For example, visit the Hofkirche cathedral, a very impressive building. Are you traveling with children? Then the Alpenzoo is a nice recommendation. It is not your average zoo, because you can find all animal species that live in the mountains. In addition, you also have a beautiful view of Innsbruck from the zoo. Knowing more? Check out the website of visit Tirol.
Visit Tyrol- Are you a nature lover?
Last but not least: Salzburg and surroundings. If you really want to experience the untouched nature during your camper trip through Austria, then you really should have seen the east of the country. You can visit the iconic locations where the movie 'The sound of music' was filmed, there are special tourist tours for this, but you can also visit them yourself with the camper. If you take a drive outside of Salzburg, you will soon come across the most beautiful lakes. Take the Hallstätter See for example. This lake is included in the UNESCO list as a world heritage site.
