Motorhome through Andorra – high up and quickly onward

Driving into Andorra from France without using the toll motorway was a challenge for both motorhome and driver: steep climbs, tight curves and finally the highest point at 2,400 metres. We stopped at the top, stayed overnight and felt the cold of the mountains, even in late summer.

The next morning we took a walk and enjoyed the breathtaking views. But once we reached the towns, it became clear: Andorra is not made for motorhomes. Narrow streets, hardly any parking, and little flexibility with a vehicle of our size. We only stopped to refuel before continuing into Spain, where travelling with a motorhome is much more comfortable.
