Few countries offer the scenery and variety of landscapes that we find in Italy: from the sea to the mountains, passing through green countryside and places of historical and artistic interest. One of the many advantages of moving by motorhome lies in being able to cross different sceneries without necessarily having to choose one, saving time, money and stress. A vacation dictated only by our own pace!

Which route to choose, within the wide range we have at our disposal? Even all of them, if we want. All we have to do is pack our suitcase, get into the motorhome and hit the road!

The 5 most scenic routes in Italy

If most Italians decide to travel by RV and stay in Italy, there is a reason. Even without getting to the other side of the boot, here are a number of routes perfect for satisfying every preference from the comfort of our home on wheels.

The Amalfi Coast

The Amalfi Coast, also known as the Blue Ribbon of Italy, offers probably the most striking scenery for those who love the sea. It is a route that winds along about 40 kilometers of coastline overlooking the sea. The scenery is so striking that it is part of the UNESCO World Heritage Site.

If we decide to travel these roads during peak season, we must also consider a somewhat higher level of difficulty, especially for RVs. Indeed, the roads are very narrow and the curves particularly sharp. But the spectacle is worth the trip!

The road of the Dolomites

Between Cortina d’Ampezzo and Bolzano stretches the great Dolomite Road, a route of about 140 km that accompanies the arc of the Alps. From here it is possible to admire the peaks of the Marmolada and Monte Sella. For a break, we can stop at one of the many local “malghe” (shepherd’s huts) where we can savor the typical cuisine and discover the traditions of Ladin culture, and then get back on our vehicle.

The Val d’Orcia

If you love landscapes with gentle contours without giving up winding paths, the Val d’Orcia is the itinerary that absolutely must be on your vacation list. We are located in the south of the province of Siena, an area that gives us many emotions, both for the intense green of the hills and the beauty of the artistic scenery. Waking up and finding in front of you a landscape that seems to be painted is priceless.

It is not necessary to have luxury and oversized motorhomes in order to enjoy breathtaking views to travel independently. What is crucial instead is to prevent a trip from turning into a nightmare due to engine failure or other problems with the vehicle.

Therefore, it is important to have a general checkup done before we hit the road and replace any components that could create problems and ruin our vacation, such as air filters that could cause allergies and discomfort on the road.
