Cold list for winter camping

At Kläppens Camping in Sälen there is a waiting list for people who want to camp throughout the winter season, but there are still gaps for those who want to make a short visit with a caravan or motorhome.

Winter camping - 10 tips for beginners

Here are ten tips for those interested in going winter camping with a motorhome or caravan.

1. Ensure your motorhome/caravan is winterised with extra insulation.
2. Carry double gas tubes for extra warmth in case of a cold snap.
3. Have a good, sturdy winter tent with a solid wooden floor to provide more storage space.
4. Store ski equipment in the awning - not in the caravan or motorhome.
5. Support the caravan's wheels with wood to prevent them from freezing to the ground.
6. Dry wet ski clothes and boots in the campsite service centre.
7. Use the campsite's common room/playroom to get the kids off their feet in the afternoons and evenings!
8. Take everything that can freeze in drawers and cupboards when you leave the caravan.
9. Empty the water tank and toilet when leaving the caravan.
10. Talk to your camping neighbours for more tips on smart solutions.
