Campervan Rental in Winter
The question we often get is: Do you offer campervan rental in Winter? And the answer is Yes!
All our high roof camper models are equipped with good winter tires and most importantly, a very efficient diesel heating system making it possible to stay warm and sleep comfortably.
Traveling in Norway during the winter time can be very fascinating. This country is breathtakingly beautiful when its covered in snow and your chances of seeing the famous Northern Lights (Aurora Borealis) are quite good, so have your camera ready with you!
Camping during winter in Norway
There are a few things to have in mind though while traveling and camping during cold weather:
1. When you get ready to go to bed, make sure your sleeping clothes are dry, very dry. Any moisture will draw heat from your body and might make you cold.
2. Wool socks is a smart choice and will keep you warm, no matter what. It‘s also so much easier to take off clothing during the night if you get too warm than trying to find something to wear while you are already shivering 😉
3. After a good night sleep, it‘s always a good idea to put your comforter upside down and let any moisture, that has collected during the night, dry out.
4. Try to keep snow out of the camper van. Snow melts and creates moisture.
5. Don‘t leave the campervan door open, you‘ll cool down the interior.
6. If it‘s snowy and windy, read the nature to see where there are drifts. You don‘t want to wake up and start your morning by being stuck.
7. If possible, park the car so it points towards the wind.
8. If the weather turns or will turn nasty, drive to the nearest town and stay in safety until the weather passes.
9. Let someone know where you are going and when you are expected to be back.
10. Low sun conditions is something to have in mind as it happens over an extended period of time during winter and can severely affect your visibility. Stay alert and drive with caution! Here is a useful website to check for road closure and conditions during your campervan trip in Noway.
