Why hire a campervan or motorhome in Catalonia

Catalonia — a region worth exploring

Catalonia stretches across 32,000 square kilometres of northeastern Spain, where the Pyrenees mountains rise to 3,143 metres at Pica d'Estats before the land tumbles down through forested valleys to over 580 kilometres of Mediterranean coastline. From Barcelona, the regional capital, it is roughly 170 km north to the French border at La Jonquera and around 200 km southwest to the ancient city of Tortosa on the Ebro Delta. The landscape shifts dramatically as you travel: the rugged coves of the Costa Brava give way to the fertile vineyards of the Penedès, while inland you will find the serrated peaks of Montserrat and the volcanic zone of La Garrotxa Natural Park, home to more than 40 dormant volcanoes. Catalonia's cultural landmarks are equally varied — the Dalí Theatre-Museum in Figueres, the Romanesque churches of the Boí Valley (a UNESCO World Heritage Site), and the monastery of Poblet all reward a slower pace of exploration. Travelling by campervan lets you connect these highlights at your own rhythm, pulling over wherever the view or a local market catches your eye. A motorhome gives families and larger groups the space to settle comfortably at each stop. Through Yescapa, you can hire directly from local owners across Catalonia, choosing from a wide range of campervans and motorhomes that suit your route, your group size, and your budget.

Best time to visit

Catalonia's campervan season runs comfortably from April through to October. Spring is ideal for exploring La Garrotxa's volcanic trails and catching the Temps de Flors flower festival in Girona each May. Summer brings warm coastal days along the Costa Brava, while September and October are perfect for the wine harvest in the Penedès and Priorat regions. Book ahead for July and August, the busiest months for coastal campsites. Outside peak season, Yescapa's peer-to-peer model often means more competitive pricing, and you will find quieter roads through the Pyrenean foothills and inland valleys — great for a more relaxed motorhome trip.

600 km 8–15 days

What you need to know about roads and motorways in Catalonia

Catalonia's main motorways — the AP-7 along the coast and the AP-2 inland — are toll roads, payable by card or cash at barrier booths. Motorhomes and campervans over 3,500 kg are classed as heavy vehicles, with higher toll rates and a general speed limit of 90 km/h on motorways (compared to 120 km/h for cars). On secondary roads the limit drops to 80 km/h for these larger vehicles. Rest areas with dedicated parking bays for larger vehicles appear regularly along the AP-7. Be aware that some mountain passes in the Pyrenees have tight bends and height restrictions, so check your vehicle dimensions before heading into high valleys.

A super - first - campervan trip! As it was our first experience to rent a camper we had many questions which were very promptly and clearly answered. When we collect the camper, Eline and Ido made us feel very welcome and took much time to explain how everything worked and how to get the best out off the van. We found the camper very easy to drive (we did quite some km that week!) - everything worked well and we found the (longways) beds very comfortable. It was an ideal vehicle for our 2 person trip. The trip went seamlessly and we had a great time. Ideal camper from ideal "hosts"! Would very much recommend.

zeer fijne camper om mee rond te trekken. bij ophalen een zeer uitgebreide uitleg gekregen en er is een boekwerk in de auto met alle praktische zaken. en mocht het dan nog niet lukken dan kun je de eigenaar appen en je krijgt zeer snel duidelijk uitleg. een aanrader dus

De communicatie met Bert verloopt erg prettig, de overdracht zowel bij ophalen als bij het terug brengen van de camper is erg prettig. En last but not least; wat een leuke camper, van alle gemakken voorzien en rijd super! Zeker een aanrader!

An absolutely brilliant experience from start to finish, and I can't recommend Gertjan and his camper highly enough. Communication was a real highlight. Gertjan was happy to chat the whole way through, which made everything so easy, and he was wonderfully flexible and relaxed about pickup and drop-off rather than being strict on timing. He even collected me from Ljubljana airport and drove me back at the end of the trip. He's also a car mechanic, and honestly that gave me huge peace of mind. It's one thing to rent a van that looks good, but knowing it was in genuinely excellent mechanical shape meant I never had a single worry on the road. And the van itself completely surprised me. It's a nineties VW California, so you might expect a bit less comfort, but the opposite is true. It's a fantastic drive, smooth and confidence inspiring even over the Vršič pass, and it's clearly been looked after beautifully. It has everything you could need: a two burner gas hob, a fridge that worked perfectly, comfortable bedding, and a layout that's genuinely easy to switch from driving mode to sleeping mode and back. It made ten days of solo travel through Bled, Bohinj, Bovec and Kobarid feel effortless. One lovely thing to know is that Gertjan is a real people person who clearly cares about his guests. He'll happily talk you through everything and share his enthusiasm, and you can tell the van and the whole experience really matter to him. Thank you Gertjan for an unforgettable trip. I'd rent from you again in a heartbeat.

Prima camper. Alles aanwezig wat je nodig hebt. Watertank niet nodig gehad. Let op bij camperplaats. Vw is niet zelfvoorzienend (geen toilet) dus campings zijn ok of camperplaats met camping voorzieningen. Vriendelijke eigenaar die je altijd om raad kunt vragen. We hebben een heerlijke week gehad.
