Camping in Norway: what should you choose? 🇳🇴

Three options. Three very different trips.

🚐 𝗖𝗔𝗠𝗣𝗘𝗥𝗩𝗔𝗡
✅ Easy to drive
✅ Warm and comfortable
✅ Easier to park than a motorhome
👥 Best for: couples and small families

🚍 𝗠𝗢𝗧𝗢𝗥𝗛𝗢𝗠𝗘
✅ More space
✅ More facilities
✅ Great for longer stays
⚠️ Harder to maneuver on narrow roads and in small parking areas
👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 Best for: families and groups

⛺ 𝗧𝗘𝗡𝗧
✅ Cheapest option
✅ Maximum outdoor experience
⚠️ More exposed to Norwegian weather
⚠️ Setting up and packing down every day gets old fast
🥾 Best for: travelers who really want the camping experience

So, what’s the middle ground?

🚐 A campervan gives you shelter, a proper bed and enough comfort for a road trip, while still being relatively easy to move around Norway.

𝗕𝗼𝗼𝗸𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗶𝗽: before choosing, think about how many people are traveling, how much space you really need and how comfortable you are driving a larger vehicle. The cheapest option isn’t always the one that fits your trip best.

What if you could get to winter before everyone else? ❄️

𝗥𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗮 𝗰𝗮𝗺𝗽𝗲𝗿𝘃𝗮𝗻 𝗶𝗻 𝗡𝗼𝗿𝘄𝗮𝘆 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗮𝘂𝘁𝘂𝗺𝗻 and you might just do exactly that. But how, you might ask?

Let us set the scene. While much of Europe is still easing into sweater weather, Norway’s mountains can already be getting their first dusting of snow from late September. Head north or climb higher, and you could wake up to 𝘄𝗵𝗶𝘁𝗲 𝗽𝗲𝗮𝗸𝘀, 𝗰𝗿𝗶𝘀𝗽 𝗮𝗶𝗿, 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗳𝗶𝗿𝘀𝘁 𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗹 𝘁𝗮𝘀𝘁𝗲 𝗼𝗳 𝘄𝗶𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗿.

And that’s where traveling by campervan changes the experience. There’s no tour schedule telling you when to leave, no need to follow the same route as everyone else, and no reason to stop exploring just because the group has moved on.

One day might take you to:

🍂 Drive through red and golden mountain landscapes
🌌 Head north to 𝗰𝗵𝗮𝘀𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗡𝗼𝗿𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗻 𝗟𝗶𝗴𝗵𝘁𝘀
🍎 Stop for apples and c***r around Hardanger
🥾 Hike before winter fully takes over the trails
🌊 Take on the Atlantic Road at your own pace
🏔️ Pull over for that fjord view everyone else just drove past

Autumn also means fewer crowds than summer, quieter roads and far fewer mosquitoes to invite themselves along for the ride.

And if you’re not in the mood for winter yet, don’t hesitate. 𝗛𝗲𝗮𝗱 𝘀𝗼𝘂𝘁𝗵. You can still find colorful autumn landscapes, milder temperatures and roads where winter conditions haven’t taken over yet.

Snowy mountains up north, golden autumn roads down south, and a campervan that lets you decide which one you want to wake up to.

April feels like the right time to talk about Hardangervidda National Park. 🤍

As part of our monthly journey through Norway’s geography, the next stop had to be . Located in the south-central part of the country, it’s one of those places that makes perfect sense on a campervan trip from Bergen or Oslo. You get the best of both worlds, city culture, food, and museums on one side, and wide-open Nordic nature on the other.

And yes, there’s a reason we picked it for April. From this point on, Norway’s largest national park really starts to shine. Winter still leaves behind great conditions for cross-country skiing, while longer days and shifting temperatures also make it a beautiful time to start exploring its vast landscapes on foot, whether you’re an experienced hiker or just looking for scenic walks.

The star of the image is Vøringsfossen, one of Norway’s most famous waterfalls. It drops 182 meters from the Hardangervidda plateau into the Måbødalen valley, and seeing it in person is every bit as impressive as it sounds.

Getting there is part of the experience. The easiest way is to follow Route 7, one of Norway’s most scenic drives, which crosses the Hardangervidda area between Eidfjord and Haugastøl, near Geilo. If you’re coming from Bergen, Route 7 takes you inland toward Eidfjord and up into dramatic mountain scenery. If you’re starting in Oslo, the same road takes you west across the plateau toward the fjord side. Either way, it’s the kind of drive that makes you want to stop often and take it all in.

To reach Vøringsfossen, keep following Route 7 toward Måbødalen. The viewpoints are located near Fossli Hotel, about 1 kilometer from the road, and there’s also a parking area nearby. From there, it’s easy to access the viewing platforms and admire the falls as they crash into the valley below.

So if your Norway road trip needs a stop that combines dramatic scenery, an easy detour, and one of the country’s most iconic natural sights, Hardangervidda and Vøringsfossen make a very strong case for April. 🚐✨

Lofoten is one of those places that instantly makes you want to slow down and stay longer.

Dramatic peaks, tiny fishing villages, white sand beaches, and roads that make the drive feel just as good as the stops. It’s easily one of the 𝐛𝐞𝐬𝐭 𝐫𝐨𝐚𝐝 𝐭𝐫𝐢𝐩 𝐝𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬 𝐢𝐧 𝐍𝐨𝐫𝐰𝐚𝐲.

To really enjoy it, 5 days is a solid plan. That gives you enough time to explore without rushing from one place to the next, and enough flexibility to actually take in the landscapes instead of just ticking boxes.

🚐 A campervan makes the whole trip even better. You get 𝐦𝐨𝐫𝐞 𝐟𝐫𝐞𝐞𝐝𝐨𝐦, 𝐦𝐨𝐫𝐞 𝐟𝐥𝐞𝐱𝐢𝐛𝐢𝐥𝐢𝐭𝐲, 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐚 𝐦𝐮𝐜𝐡 𝐞𝐚𝐬𝐢𝐞𝐫 𝐰𝐚𝐲 𝐭𝐨 𝐦𝐨𝐯𝐞 around the islands at your own pace. And with the E10 connecting so much of Lofoten, getting around is part of the experience too.

March can be a beautiful time to go, but it still comes with proper winter energy. Expect colder temperatures, possible snow, changing road conditions, and fewer daylight hours than later in spring. On the other hand, the scenery looks incredible, the atmosphere feels wilder, and the islands are often quieter.

Save this post if Lofoten’s on your list, and start planning those 5 days the right way. 🇳🇴✨

Earlier this year, we shared one can’t miss corner of Norway for every month of the year… and guess what? February was the month our Campervan Norway team picked for the Lyngen Alps. And between you and us, it was a perfect match. 🏔️❄️

This peninsula is even more dramatic than it looks in photos, especially in winter. The Lyngen Alps stretch roughly 90 km long and 20 km wide, sitting east of Tromsø and rising straight out of the Norwegian fjords.

And because they sit right by the Arctic Circle and reach up to around 1,800 meters, March and April are a favorite window for adventures like ski touring. But can you visit in February too? Absolutely, as long as the weather plays nice.

Here are a couple of easy ways to get there:

1️⃣ Rent a camper in Tromsø (Link in bio!) and drive about 1 to 1.5 hours. Winter tires are a must.
2️⃣ Take the ferry from Breivikeidet (about 40 minutes from Tromsø) and bring your camper with you. 😉⛴️

Local tip from our team: pack enough supplies, especially food, because you’ll find fewer shops here than in Tromsø. 🥫🍫

We promised there was more, and here it is. Part two of our month by month guide to where to go in Norway.

Some of these months feel quieter, moodier, and full of small surprises. The kind of places that make you slow down and really notice where you are. ❄️🌫️🍂

You really can explore Norway year round.

This past year reminded us that every month has its own mood, its own rhythm, and its own kind of magic. ❄️🌲🌊☀️🍂✨

So here it is. A month by month look at some of the places that made us fall for Norway again and again, all from the road.

From northern lights and snow covered passes, to long summer days by the fjords, slow coastal drives, and crisp fall landscapes with space to breathe.

This is part one. Just half of the story.
Part two is coming next.

Save this for when you start planning your Norway trip and tell us which month you would choose. 🚐
