Driving a Campervan around Frankfurt

  • Frankfurt is Germany's highway crossroads: the A5 (north-south) meets the A3 (east-west) at Frankfurter Kreuz—ideal for onward trips.
  • A green environmental sticker ("Feinstaubplakette") is required inside the whole city ring (A3/A5/A661). Buy online or at TÜV/DEKRA test centers.
  • Campervans that weigh 3.5 tons or less pay no highway tolls. Heavier vehicles used for commercial transport need a Toll Collect unit.
  • Expect traffic jams around Frankfurter Kreuz and on the A661 inner ring during rush hours. Avoid 07:00-09:00 and 16:00-18:30 if possible.
  • France's Alsace region and Luxembourg are about 2 hours away via A5/A67. The Netherlands is about 3 hours away via A3.
  • Wild camping is banned in Hesse state. Use official campsites or Stellplätze (RV parking areas).

Places to Stay in a Motorhome

Site Type Distance to City Center
Campingplatz Mainkur Riverside Campsite About 30 min (Tram 11)
City Camp Frankfurt Urban Campsite About 10 min (U6/U7 from Niddapark)

Stellplätze are basic RV parking areas that often cost €5–15 per night. Look for signs that say 'Wohnmobilstellplatz'.

Many Park and Ride (P+R) sites surround Frankfurt. You can park your van there and take the S-Bahn or U-Bahn trains straight to downtown.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is wild camping in an RV permitted in Germany?

No, wild/free camping in Germany is illegal and strictly prohibited.

There are plenty of campsites in Germany, starting around €30 ($32 USD) per night.

Germany also has Stellplatz which are roadside areas where you are officially allowed to stop overnight with your motorhome. Many of these Stellplatz sites are equipped with basic facilities including sanitary stations or hookups. Some charge a minor fee while some are free of charge.

What type of license do you need to rent a campervan in Germany?

To operate a motorhome weighing up to 7,716 pounds in Germany, you need a valid Type B driving license (Equivalent to Class D in the U.S. or Class G in Canada).

You should be at least 21 years of age to rent a campervan in Germany, with a minimum of one year's worth of driving experience under your belt. Planning to rent a more hefty vehicle weighing over 7,716 pounds? You'll need to be at least 23 years old for that.
