📅 Duration: 3 days (2 nights)
🛣️ Distance: ~670 km
💶 Price: From €1 a day with Imoova (plus fuel & campsites)

Start your journey in Germany’s capital!
If you have time before collecting your campervan, grab a final coffee at one of Berlin’s trendy cafes or stroll through Tempelhofer Feld, a former airport turned urban park.

Once you're on the road, head southwest towards Leipzig, a buzzing, artsy city known for its music history and creative scene.

Top things to do in Leipzig:

• 🎶 Visit the St. Thomas Church, where Bach worked as a cantor.

• 🖼️ Explore Spinnerei, a former cotton mill turned massive contemporary art complex.

• 🍺 Chill at Karl-Liebknecht-Strasse ("Karli") — full of cozy pubs and indie bars.

Campervan tip: Leipzig has several great campsites near the city. Knaus Campingpark Leipzig is a good base, with easy access to the city centre.

Distance: 360 km / 4 hours

Rise early and hit the road! Your first pitstop is Eisenach (about 2 hours away), home to the legendary Wartburg Castle — a UNESCO World Heritage site where Martin Luther translated the New Testament. The castle’s views over the Thuringian Forest are unbeatable.

After exploring, continue towards Würzburg, in the heart of Franconian wine country. This lively baroque city on the Main River is picture-perfect.

Top things to do in Würzburg:

• 🏰 Tour the Würzburg Residence, one of the most stunning palaces in Europe.

• 🍷 Wander along the Alte Mainbrücke

• 🌳 Relax in the Court Gardens or picnic by the river.

Campervan tip: Overnight at Campingplatz Kalte Quelle, a peaceful site right outside Würzburg with easy access to the city.

Distance: 120 km / 1.5 hours

Your final stretch is short — meaning you’ve got time for a slow morning! Maybe stop at a bakery for fresh pretzels and coffee before heading into Frankfurt.

Though it’s known as Germany’s financial hub, Frankfurt is full of surprises: charming old town squares, riverside parks, and buzzing food markets.

Top things to do in Frankfurt:

• 🏛️ Stroll around Römerberg, the picturesque historic heart of the city.

• 🖼️ Check out the Städel Museum, one of Germany’s top art galleries.

• 🌳 Chill at Palmengarten, Frankfurt’s lush botanical garden.

🛣️ Germany’s Autobahns are famous — but keep an eye out for speed limits (especially near construction zones).

🛒 Stock up on groceries before Sunday — most shops are closed.

🚐 Stay flexible: small towns along the way like Naumburg or Bad Kissingen are worth a spontaneous detour!
