When going on a motorhome trip off season?

In spring, in autumn or even in winter, you can go to the countryside for beautiful excursions on horseback, on foot or by bike or to pick up mushrooms and chestnuts. Nothing better to admire the changing colors of the landscape.
Put your skis on and hit the slopes
Many travelers enjoy making a motorhome trip off season to the mountains. By parking near the resorts, you can enjoy a stay not far from the slopes to practice winter sports: skiing, sled, chairlift… There is something for everyone (be careful of the cold!)
