Best time to hire a campervan in Linz

The best time to hire a campervan in Linz, near Hörsching depends on what you want from your road trip.
You can expect the most sunshine and best temperatures in Linz from May to September, but this time of year also draws in more visitors.

Spring – Experience Urfahraner Frühjahrsmarkt, a traditional folk festival with classic rides and fairground snacks.

Summer – Watch extreme sports at the industrial harbour or visit the numerous open-air events hosted across the city.

Autumn – The Ars Electronica Festival, a four-day festival considered the largest stage for media art and the Linzer Klangwolke, an open-air musical in Donaupark are highlights in autumn.

Winter – A traditional Christmas market is sure to get you feeling festive.

So, no matter when you plan to travel, you can be sure there’s plenty to see and do. And, with campervan hire in Linz from roadsurfer, you can be confident your camper is kitted out for all seasons.
