As the calendar turns to a new year, many of us feel the urge to break free from routine and embrace fresh experiences. What better way to start the year than by hitting the open road in a campervan? At Up Sticks Campers, we invite you to make this year unforgettable by exploring the great outdoors with our comfortable, well-equipped campervans.

Why Choose a Campervan for Your New Year Adventure?
Traveling in a campervan offers a unique blend of comfort, flexibility, and adventure. Unlike traditional vacations that require strict schedules and hotel bookings, campervan travel lets you decide where to go and when to stop. Here’s why campervanning is a perfect way to kick off your year:
Freedom to Explore
You can visit hidden gems, national parks, and scenic routes without worrying about accommodation availability. Your campervan is your home on wheels.
Cost-Effective Travel
Save money on hotels and dining out by cooking your own meals and sleeping in your campervan. This makes longer trips more affordable.
Closer to Nature
Wake up surrounded by nature, whether it’s a forest, beach, or mountain view. Enjoy outdoor activities like hiking, fishing, or simply relaxing under the stars.

Planning Your New Year Campervan Trip
Starting your year with a campervan trip requires some planning to ensure a smooth experience. Here are practical steps to get you ready:
Choose Your Destination
Think about what kind of scenery and activities you want. Some popular options include:
Coastal drives with beach stops
Mountain regions for hiking and wildlife spotting

Pack Smart

Cooking supplies and food
Outdoor gear like hiking boots or fishing rods
Personal items and toiletries
Plan Your Route, But Stay Flexible

Safety and Maintenance
Before setting off, check your campervan’s condition. Familiarise yourself with its features and emergency procedures.
