Helpful tips for your holiday in Stuttgart

The best time to hire a campervan in Stuttgart will depend on your preference for the weather. The area around the city is warmest from June through to August. However, as this is a popular time to visit, it is also more expensive and crowded. For a quieter, cheaper holiday, it may be better to try visiting during late spring or early autumn.

Hiking
Although you can go hiking any time of the year in Stuttgart and its surrounding areas, if you are looking for the most pleasant weather conditions, we recommend between May and September. If the temperatures are too warm, you could try January, November, or December, when it is still relatively dry but also cooler.
Outdoor activities
Similarly, for outdoor activities, visiting Stuttgart anytime between May and September will give you the best weather experience. For a quieter time, though, you should visit between November and January.
Fishing
If you rent a motorhome in Stuttgart and want to land some great catches, it is best to head down by the river during the warm summer months from May to September.

Best campervan routes from Stuttgart

One of the best ways to spend your time when you book a motorhome for hire in Stuttgart is to try some of the best driving routes in the wider area. Consider adding some or all of the following to your itinerary.

Stuttgart to Hesse
Aside from the fact that the Rhine-Main area in Germany’s southwest, which is home to Hesse, is extremely beautiful, there are so many stunning vineyards to visit in one of the country’s most prominent wine regions. The distance between these two iconic points is around 133.6 miles, and while it may not sound especially long or expansive, you could still stretch out this route over a couple of days.

Stuttgart to Lower Saxony
Lower Saxony is a unique German region as it is one of the only ones that boasts a vast mountain range and access to the sea. The seven East Frisian islands and the North Sea coast are within Lower Saxony, so you can venture further up to the north of the country when you book a motorhome rental in Stuttgart. If you are just looking for a day trip, it will take around 6 hours to complete – though you could extend it if necessary.

Stuttgart to Brandenburg
For a much longer journey when you book a motorhome rental in Stuttgart, consider the trip up to the northern region of Brandenburg. Rambling countryside and many stunning lakes and forests await, and thanks to the fact that it is less populated than other parts of the country, it offers a more tranquil setting for a motorhome getaway.

Best sites of interest and excursions in Stuttgart
