Why choose Gothenburg for your road trip
Gothenburg — a city worth exploring
Göteborg's Feskekôrka, a fish market shaped like a Gothic church, has been a landmark on the Rosenlund Canal since 1874. Sweden's second-largest city blends maritime heritage with modern creativity, and there is plenty to discover on four wheels. Stroll through the Haga district with its cobblestone lanes and cinnamon bun cafés, then head to the Universeum science centre for hands-on exhibits and a tropical rainforest under glass. Art lovers will find world-class collections at the Gothenburg Museum of Art on Götaplatsen, while families can spend a full day at Liseberg amusement park. The coastline stretching west towards the archipelago is ideal for motorhome travel — wide roads lead to harbourside villages where you can park up and watch the sunset over granite islands. Malmö sits roughly 270 km to the south, and the lakeside town of Jönköping is about 150 km to the east, making both excellent side-trip options. With Yescapa's peer-to-peer platform, you can hire a campervan directly from a local owner in the Göteborg area, often picking up from a residential neighbourhood rather than a distant depot. That personal touch means insider tips on the best coastal routes and overnight spots. Whether you are planning a weekend escape along the Bohuslän coast or a longer Swedish adventure, renting a campervan in Göteborg puts you right where the journey begins.
Best time to visit
Göteborg comes alive from May to September, when long daylight hours make every road trip feel endless. The Gothenburg Culture Festival in August fills the city centre with free concerts, street food and performances — a great reason to time your visit. If you prefer quieter roads, June and early September offer warm days with fewer fellow travellers. During the Christmas season, Liseberg transforms into a sparkling winter market worth a detour. Hiring a campervan through Yescapa's peer-to-peer model often means more flexible pricing outside peak summer weeks, so booking a trip in late spring or early autumn can be especially rewarding. Plan ahead for July, the most popular month for campervan travel in Göteborg.
Top getaways from Gothenburg
Gothenburg is the perfect base for exploring the region by motorhome or campervan. Here are our 6 must-see getaways
Gothenburg to Marstrand
55km northwest 1–3 days
Marstrand sits just 55 km northwest of Gothenburg and makes a brilliant short trip. Carlsten Fortress crowns the car-free island with sweeping views across the archipelago. Wander the historic village centre and enjoy fresh seafood by the harbour. Park your campervan at Koön on the mainland, where a short ferry crosses to the island.
Gothenburg to Fjällbacka
85km north 2–4 days
Fjällbacka, 85 km north of Gothenburg, is famous as the setting for Camilla Läckberg's crime novels. Visit the dramatic Vetteberget gorge and stroll along Wetterbilles Gata, one of Sweden's narrowest lanes. A boat trip to Väderöarna offers chances to spot seals. Motorhome pitches are available right by the harbour, making it easy to explore on foot.
Gothenburg to Jönköping
150km northeast 3–6 days
Jönköping lies 150 km northeast of Gothenburg on the southern shore of Lake Vättern, Sweden's second-largest lake. Explore the Matchstick Museum (Tändsticksmuseet) and the Husqvarna factory in nearby Huskvarna. The lakeside road offers swimming spots and rest areas along the way. A stop in Ulricehamn, with its campervan-friendly lakeside pitch, breaks the journey nicely.
Gothenburg to Växjö
190km southeast 3–6 days
Växjö, 190 km southeast of Gothenburg, is the gateway to the Kingdom of Crystal in Småland. Visit the Kosta Boda and Orrefors glassworks, where you can watch master glassblowers at work. The Småland Museum in Växjö tells the story of Swedish emigration to America. Roads through Småland's forests are wide and well-suited for motorhome travel, with plenty of rest stops.
Gothenburg to Stockholm
290km east 5–8 days
The classic route from Gothenburg to Stockholm covers 290 km heading east. Along the way, stop at the Göta Canal near Sjötorp to see locks and historic steamships. In Örebro, the castle sits dramatically on an island in the Svartån river. Further east, Mariefred and Gripsholm Castle make a picturesque stop. Campervan pitches are well signposted along the entire route, making this a relaxed week-long adventure.
Gothenburg to Karlstad and Värmland
310km north 5–8 days
Karlstad sits 310 km north of Gothenburg on the shore of Lake Vänern, Sweden's largest lake. The Värmland region offers dense forests where moose sightings are common. Visit the Sandgrund Lars Lerin art centre in Karlstad and take a detour to Sunne, where you can tour Selma Lagerlöf's Mårbacka estate. Roads through Värmland are quiet and ideal for motorhome touring, with plenty of nature campsites along the way.

Outside the city centre, you'll find more spacious options suitable for larger vehicles.

Frequently asked questions
Campervan and motorhome hire prices in Gothenburg vary by season and vehicle type. During summer, expect around £80 to £130 per day, while off-peak rates often drop to £50 to £90. Through Yescapa, you hire directly from private owners, which tends to be more affordable than traditional rental companies.

Popular pick-up areas include Hisingen, Mölndal, and the central district around Korsvägen. Since vehicles are listed by local owners, you can often arrange a flexible pick-up location that suits your travel plans. This means you can start your trip right from a convenient spot without a long transfer to a depot.

On Yescapa, use filters to sort vehicles by price, features, and location. Booking early helps secure the best deals from local owners. It's also worth comparing vehicle types: a compact campervan is often more affordable than a large motorhome, and perfectly suited for exploring the coast and archipelago around Gothenburg.
The ideal vehicle size depends on your group and travel style.

A huge thank you to Silvia and Tsetso for an incredible experience in Portugal! From our very first contact, we felt their warm, friendly, and professional attitude. They gave us many great ideas and recommendations for places to visit, and throughout the entire trip, we could always count on them for any questions, advice, or assistance we needed. The Laika motorhome was absolutely fantastic — very easy to drive, exceptionally clean, comfortable, well maintained, and equipped with everything we needed for a relaxing and enjoyable journey. It was clear how much care and attention they put into keeping it in excellent condition. Honestly, I cannot imagine a better choice of motorhome for our family. It made our trip even more special and helped turn it into one of our most memorable and favourite family experiences. We would happily rent the Laika again and highly recommend Silvia and Tsetso to anyone looking for a great motorhome and a truly wonderful travel experience. Thank you so much!

Todo el proceso fue perfecto. Decidimos coger algunos extras para ampliar la experiencia de la Camper y fue genial. Es muy cómoda y espaciosa, además de que el interior es muy nuevo todo. La furgoneta es vintage, por lo que hay que tratarla con cariño y paciencia y te dará el viaje ideal.
