Traveling Albania by Campervan

Albania is a fantastic and increasingly popular destination for campervan travel, offering dramatic coastlines, mountain roads and a warm welcome, all at low cost. With the freedom to roam, you can wake up beside the sea or high in the Alps. Here is how to make the most of it.

Why Campervan

A campervan combines transport and accommodation, letting you explore at your own pace and change plans on a whim. Albania's compact size means you can reach the coast and mountains within a single trip.

Best Routes

The Riviera coast is the classic campervan route, with sea views around every bend. Inland, the roads to Berat, the lakes and, for the adventurous, the mountains offer wonderful variety.

Where to Stay

Organised campsites are growing along the coast and near popular spots, offering facilities and a friendly base. Some guesthouses and restaurants also welcome campervans.

Wild Camping Etiquette

Wild camping happens in Albania, especially by the coast and in nature, but always be respectful. Ask permission where appropriate, leave no trace, avoid private land, and keep noise down.

Roads and Services

Main roads are good, while some remote and mountain roads are narrower and winding, so drive carefully in a larger vehicle. Fuel and supplies are easy to find along main routes.

Tips

• Use organised campsites for facilities and security.
• Always leave your spot clean and tidy.
• Drive mountain roads slowly in a larger vehicle.
• Stock up on fuel and water before remote areas.
