Why hire a campervan or motorhome in Espace Mittelland
Espace Mittelland — a region worth exploring
Espace Mittelland stretches across the Swiss Plateau between the Jura mountains and the Bernese Alps, making it the largest of Switzerland's seven major regions by population. The federal capital, Bern, sits at its heart — a UNESCO World Heritage Site whose medieval old town features 6 kilometres of covered arcades, the longest weatherproof shopping promenade in Europe. From Bern, it is roughly 60 km south to the shores of Lake Thun, where the Alps rise dramatically from the water's edge, and about 45 km west to the bilingual city of Biel/Bienne on the language border between French- and German-speaking Switzerland. The region's geography is ideal for campervan travel: gently rolling farmland connects well-maintained roads between historic towns such as Solothurn, often called the finest Baroque city in Switzerland, and Burgdorf, home to one of the country's best-preserved medieval castles. Emmental's famous green hills and traditional cheesemaking dairies offer a slower pace, while the Aare river corridor provides a natural route linking many of the region's key destinations. Whether you prefer lakeside stops or mountain panoramas, Espace Mittelland rewards those who take their time. Through Yescapa's peer-to-peer platform, you can hire a motorhome or campervan directly from local owners across the region, choosing from a wide range of vehicles to match your group size and travel style.
Best time to visit
Espace Mittelland is a rewarding destination from spring through to autumn. May and June bring wildflower meadows across Emmental and comfortable temperatures for exploring Bern on foot. Summer is peak season, with events like the Gurtenfestival in Bern each July drawing music fans from across Europe. Autumn brings golden colours to the Jura foothills and harvest festivals in the wine-growing villages near Biel/Bienne. Booking through Yescapa's peer-to-peer model often means more competitive pricing than traditional hire, especially outside the July–August peak. Plan ahead for summer weekends and you will find excellent availability across Espace Mittelland.

Fue bastante sencillo, una vez pusimos en la búsqueda nuestras preferencias para la autocaravana, por ejemplo que nos pudieran recoger al aeropuerto, que tuviera para cargar bicicleta, kilometraje ilimitado, transmisión, manual, etc. Luego escoger el vehículo que más nos gustara y tuvimos una experiencia maravillosa y excelente.

5 / 5
Nous avons passer un merveilleux séjour d’une grosse semaine de 8 jours! Le van convenait parfaitement à ce que nous voulions avoir, petit, bien équipé, propre et utilitaire. La tente est très simple à monter et à notre surprise plus, spacieux que nous l’aurions crus! Rémi est nous à tout bien expliquer le fonctionnement de la van et à toujours été disponible à repondre à quand venait le temps de lui poser nos questionnement. Je recommande fortement!
