10 good resolutions for 2026 when traveling by motorhome (and beyond!)

Dear travelers, dear motorhome travelers,

A new year lies ahead, promising renewed freedom, roads to explore, and memories to make. Whether you are already well-versed in the traveling lifestyle or just discovering the joys of motorhome travel, 2026 is the perfect opportunity to make resolutions that will enrich your adventures. At CAMPING-CAR PARK, we know how much independent travel is a way of life in its own right, which is why we've put together a list of 10 simple, concrete, and inspiring commitments to make this year an unforgettable experience.

1. Explore a new region of France every month

France is full of hidden gems, from the rustic charm of Aubrac to the gentle beauty of the Marais Poitevin. In 2026, why not set yourself the goal of discovering a new region every month? With the CAMPING-CAR PARKnetwork, it's a breeze: more than 400 stopover sites welcome you throughout France, often just a stone's throw from the most beautiful villages, natural parks, and historic sites. Thanks to the Access Card, you can freely access the entire network, and with the Privilege Pack, you can reserve your spot in advance for peace of mind while traveling.

> Tip: start with the Centre-Val de Loire region or Normandy, two destinations rich in heritage and varied landscapes.

2. Travel slower and savor each step of the way

Traveling in a motorhome isn't a race against time, it's an invitation to slow down. In 2026, let's resolve to rush less, to take the time to visit a local market, watch the sun rise over the estuary, or chat with a neighbor along the way. The Privilege Pack guarantees you a spot even in high season, allowing you to extend your stay in a favorite destination without stress.

Take advantage of great partner deals with the Digital Pass, to fully experience the regions you travel through.

3. Maintain your motorhome regularly

A well-maintained motorhome is a reliable travel companion for years to come. In 2026, set yourself a simple maintenance schedule: check fluid levels, inspect tires, and maintain the living area. Take advantage of quieter periods to pamper your motorhome. Also consider upgrading your equipment for greater comfort (solar panels, refrigerator, heating). A vehicle in good condition is the key to a peaceful journey.

4. Promote off-season destinations

Why not go away when everyone else is staying at home? Spring and fall reveal sublime landscapes, far from the hustle and bustle of summer. CAMPING-CAR PARK sites are open all year round, even in winter! By choosing to travel off-season, you'll enjoy a warm welcome, often lower prices, and a more authentic immersion in the areas you visit.

> Try a getaway to Camargue in February, or to Dordogne in November: the beauty of these places knows no season.

5. Sample local specialties from each region

Each region is an invitation to embark on a culinary journey: cheeses from the Alps, oysters from Brittany, olives from Provence... In 2026, make a resolution to fill your refrigerator with local products rather than supermarket items.

Many areas are located near markets or producers. And with the Digital Pass, you can access discounts at local shops that are partners in the network.

6. Taking care of your health while traveling

Traveling also means taking care of yourself. How about incorporating a short daily walk, a moment of relaxation, or some meditation time into your routine? The motorhome lifestyle is ideal for staying in shape, as long as you listen to your body. Take advantage of the many areas located near hiking trails, beaches, or bike paths to stay active at a gentle pace.

7. Travel lighter and more eco-friendly

In 2026, let's embrace minimalism: a less cluttered motorhome means lower fuel consumption and greater maneuverability. Choose sustainable items, limit packaging, and adopt good practices for managing your wastewater. CAMPING-CAR PARK is committed to more responsible tourism by offering well-equipped areas for waste and gray water management.

8. Share your tips with the community

The RV community is supportive and passionate. In 2026, why not share your favorites, itineraries, and preferred areas more often? On the CAMPING-CAR PARK website website or dedicated groups, your feedback can inspire other travelers. And who knows? You may discover your next destination thanks to a comment or tip you receive online.

9. Disconnect regularly (and reconnect better)

Traveling in a motorhome offers a rare opportunity: the chance to disconnect. Make a resolution to switch off your screens from time to time, so you can better appreciate the scenery, the people you meet, and the silence. And when you reconnect, use the CAMPING-CAR PARK app app to plan your stops with peace of mind or discover special offers reserved for members.

10. Dare to think outside the box and try new experiences

What if 2026 was the year of new experiences? Take up photography, visit a local museum, go on an unusual hike, or even spend a night in a different type of accommodation: break the routine. Some areas of the network are located near unique activities or cultural sites to explore. Treat yourself to a year full of firsts.

Conclusion: On the way to a year full of promise

These good resolutions are not constraints, but invitations to fully enjoy your motorhome trip. In 2026, let yourself be guided by your desires, while enjoying the safety and comfort of the CAMPING-CAR PARK networknetwork. With your access card, your Privilege Pack and your Digital Pass, all roads are open to you.
