MMM magazine June 2024 - Freedom to roam... Zurück Ausgabe

Motorhomes and campervans offer the best opportunity to set off on a real adventure, off-grid so to speak, as they are mostly pretty self-contained. And the June issue proves you don't need a big or expensive overlander to do just that.

We've got five great tours, including one to Scandinavia, with our off-gridders applying a strict daily budget in one of Europe's most expensive regions. There's also a weekend on the Dorset coast, a very ad-hoc adventure to Arran, a walking holiday using a motorhome and the Settle to Carlisle railway, and a low-cost trip to the French Alps using the aires network. All these have extra galleries at the end, exclusive to this digital issue.

We also review two all-new campervans that are very different:
- the Rolling Homes Darwin, based on the VW Crafter with a unique central lounge layout
- Benimar Benivan 161 on a Fiat Ducato with fixed single beds
Both have extra photos and embedded video reviews and we've even included a pop up video of alternative reviews for each.

Then, there's three advice features on going off-grid - read our essential advice on upgrading your motorhome 12V system to be more independent from electric hook-up, along with two reader projects on what they did.
