Best campervan routes in Basel
The Black Forest
Basel is ideally located to access Germany's legendary Black Forest, which is only 119 kilometres and a drive of an hour and a half on the E35 and B294. However, this is not the only route from Basel. With a Motorhome for hire in Basel you can also take the Black Forest Panoramic Road stretching from the Rhine Valley to the Vosges and Alps. Another option is to leave Basel on the Hauptstraße 5 and head through the picturesque scenery to Offenburg or Appenweirer before taking the B28 towards Freudenberg.
Basel to Geneva
When you hire a campervan in Basel, Geneva is a beautiful lakeside town you could choose to head to and the second largest in Switzerland and is considered Switzerland's cultural capital. Driving from Basel to Geneva includes a stop-off at Bern, the other contender for unofficial capital status in a country without a designated capital city. There is plenty of opportunity for hiking and skiing in this mountainous region covered with dense forests and pretty alpine meadows.
Mount Titlis
Head south from Basel on the E25 and E35 towards Mount Titlis, a picturesque drive of 135 kilometres. Mount Titlis is one of the most popular excursion mountains in Switzerland. Engelberg is a charming and historic resort town at the base and a great starting point for numerous hiking trails. The mountain can be accessed by gondola and cable car.
