Last-minute campervan trip
to Scandinavia this summer

Too late to head north this summer? Not with an off-grid campervan. July and August are actually the best months for Scandinavia — and with a self-sufficient van you can still book last-minute, without hopping from campsite to campsite.

Why right now Summer is the moment for the north

Scandinavia is all about summer. In July and August the days are longest, the water is swimmable and nature is at its best — in the far north the sun barely sets. It's exactly the season the Horizon was built for.

And unlike a holiday home or hotel, you don't need to book months ahead. With an off-grid campervan you stay freely in nature, so you're not at the mercy of fully booked campsites. One open week in the calendar is all it takes to go.

"An off-grid campervan is the ultimate last-minute solution: no campsite needed, no reservations on the road — just you, sun on the solar panels and an open road north."


How much time you need From a week to a grand tour

From Amstelveen you reach the Danish border in one day. Allow for that single driving day each way and you'll know how much real exploring time you have left. Our Scandinavia page has the routes and seasons per destination.


What your van needs Staying self-sufficient, the whole way

The Horizon has all of this: 600W of solar, a 3.65 kWh battery, 80L of water, a diesel heater and a queen-size bed. Built for exactly this trip.
