Best Campsites in Romania for Motorhomes
Complete Guide 2026

What to look for in a motorhome-friendly campsite

Not every campsite in Romania caters to motorhomes. Before booking, check for these essentials:

• Electrical hookup (230V) — essential for your heating system, fridge and devices. Look for 6–16A per pitch.
• Dumping station — for emptying grey water and the chemical toilet cassette. Not all campsites have one; confirm in advance.
• Water connection on pitch — not always available; at minimum there should be a nearby tap.
• Access for longer vehicles — pitches of at least 8×4 m, with no low barriers or steep ramps at the entrance.
• Clean shower and toilet block — especially important for families or when travelling with pets.
• WiFi — handy for remote workers and digital nomads exploring the vanlife lifestyle in Romania.

Best campsites by region

Transylvania — Sibiu, Brașov, Cluj

Transylvania is the number-one motorhome destination in Romania. The combination of medieval cities, iconic mountain roads (Transfăgărășan, Transalpina) and well-organised campsites makes it ideal for a first or repeat visit.

• Camping Stejarul (Sibiu area) — shaded pitches under centuries-old oak trees, electrical hookups, hot showers and easy access for integrated motorhomes. Just 20 km from Sibiu's historic centre and close to Bran Castle.
• Camping Natura Parc (Brașov area) — modern facilities, long-vehicle pitches, dumping station and on-site bar-restaurant. Perfect base for Poiana Brașov, Predeal and the Râșnov Fortress.
• Cheile Turzii area (Cluj) — smaller, more rustic campsites near this stunning nature reserve, with basic facilities but outstanding scenery.

Maramureș — tradition and rural authenticity

Maramureș is Romania's most authentic region: wooden churches, the Merry Cemetery in Săpânța, traditional villages and mountain landscapes. A 2–3 day motorhome loop here is genuinely unforgettable.

• Camping Ocna Șugatag — lakeside campsite with electrical hookups, showers and a relaxed atmosphere. Very affordable, ideal for a quiet overnight stop.
• Breb–Budești area — private farm pitches with minimal facilities but maximum authenticity. Best for self-sufficient motorhomes with solar panels and large water tanks.

Danube Delta — wildlife and waterways

The Danube Delta is a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve and one of Europe's most biodiverse wetlands. Your motorhome becomes a mobile base; boat trips take you deep into the canals and reed beds.

• Murighiol area campsites — several options with electrical hookups and direct access to Delta boat trips. Open May to September.
• Sulina — for adventurers: Sulina is reached by ferry (motorhomes can board), but the experience is unique — a car-free town, pristine beach and exceptional birdwatching.

Black Sea coast

Romania's Black Sea coast has a strong campsite tradition, with many sites dating back decades but modernised in recent years.

• Neptun / Olimp — pine-shaded pitches, electrical hookups, showers and beach access. Family-friendly and well-organised.
• Vama Veche / 2 Mai — Romania's bohemian seaside; simpler facilities but a unique, laid-back atmosphere popular with younger travellers.
• Eforie Nord — close to Lake Techirghiol (famous for its therapeutic mud), with full-service campsite facilities.

Prahova Valley — mountain gateway from Bucharest

Sinaia, Bușteni and Azuga sit at the foot of the Bucegi Mountains, just 100 km from Bucharest. Excellent motorhome stopovers before heading deeper into the Carpathians.

• Sinaia–Bușteni campsites — pitches with electrical hookup, close to cable cars and ski slopes. Extended season: some remain open in winter for skiing.
• Rânca (Gorj) — at 1,650 m altitude, alpine scenery and crisp air. The access road is challenging for larger integrated motorhomes; plan accordingly.

Bucovina — UNESCO painted monasteries

The painted monasteries of Bucovina (Voroneț, Sucevița, Moldovița) are UNESCO World Heritage sites and deserve a dedicated 2–3 day circuit by motorhome.

• Câmpulung Moldovenesc area — well-positioned campsites with good facilities, central for the main monastery route.
• Gura Humorului — the most accessible hub for Bucovina tourism, with several campsite options including electrical hookups.

What does it cost? Price guide for 2026

• Standard overnight pitch (motorhome + 2 adults + electricity): €15–35 per night
• Peak season (July–August): 30–50% higher than the rest of the year
• Premium campsites (pool, spa, full services): €40–70 per night
• Wild camping in permitted areas: free or a small local fee (€5–10)

Practical tips for campsite travel in Romania

• Book ahead for July–August and Easter weekend — popular campsites fill up fast.
• Check height restrictions — some campsite barriers or access ramps are under 3 m. Integrated motorhomes often exceed 3.2 m; always verify.
• Useful apps: Park4night, Campercontact and iOverlander all have up-to-date reviews for Romania campsites, including photos and access info.
• Wild camping is permitted in unprotected areas and on private land with the owner's consent. Avoid national parks and nature reserves.
• Bring a Schuko adapter — some older Romanian campsite power points are not the standard European type.
