Motorhome & Campervan Hire in Bergen

The best time to hire a motorhome in Bergen depends largely on the activities you plan for your trip. Are you looking to experience Norway’s winter wonderland and go skiing, or do you prefer enjoying long days outdoors with the sun setting as late as midnight?

• In spring, from March to May, nature begins to awaken, and the landscape turns green. Temperatures range from 5°C to 12°C. It’s a great time to see the rhododendrons in bloom, but some attractions may still be closed, and the weather can be cool.
• Autumn, from September to November, sees temperatures between 8°C and 14°C. The landscape transforms with beautiful autumnal colors, creating a picturesque backdrop for outdoor activities. Tourist crowds start to decrease during this season.
• Winter, from December to February, is cool with temperatures ranging from 0°C to 6°C. Rain or snow can add a magical atmosphere to your outdoor adventures. The winter months are excellent for activities such as skiing, cross-country skiing, and ice skating in the Bergen area.
