If you’re kicking off your road trip in Germany from Erfurt, we have some tips to help you plan your journey with your campervan rental.
You can hire a campervan in Erfurt at any time of year, but the spring, summer, and autumn months are ideal for extended hikes, nature observation, and outdoor activities.
Between April and September, the weather is pleasantly mild, nature is in full bloom, and the temperatures are warm enough for outdoor pursuits. In April, consider visiting the Erfurt Spring Festival, and in June, enjoy the Krämerbrücken Festival, the largest Old Town festival in Thuringia. From September to November, temperatures remain mild, offering optimal conditions for hiking or cycling tours amid the vibrant autumn landscape. During the low season, you’ll benefit from less crowded campsites and lower prices.
To refill your fresh water tank before you hit the road or to empty your grey water tank before you head back with your campervan rental, we suggest using the “Tor zur Stadt Erfurt” motorhome site at the P+R Messe car park. Fresh water is available for €0.10 per 10 litres, and there’s a toilet cassette disposal machine for €3 per use (which includes grey water). This service is accessible 24/7.
