Best campervan routes from Valencia

Valencia to Teulada
Take the famous coast route, the A7, 114 kilometres south from Valencia to Teulada. A great stop off en route is the Parc Natural de l’Albufera de Valencia, with rice fields, lagoons, and a wide variety of marine life and bird species. Teulada is famous for its high number of people aged over 90 and centenarians; if you visit, you’ll perhaps get a clue as to why. If you rent a motorhome in Valencia, you will get to check out this landscape, which is wild and unspoiled, with Europe's largest holm oak forest and beautiful azure seas lapping sandy beaches.

Valencia to Barcelona
Head north on the E15 to Barcelona, a 350-kilometre distance that can be driven in around four hours if you don’t stop. However, this route offers some fascinating places to stop at when you rent a campervan in Valencia, like Miravet with its historic castle, Salou with its thousand-year-old olive trees and Blue Flag beaches, and the Roman city of Tarragona. It’s worth lingering and spending several days before arriving in Barcelona, the capital of Catalonia.

Valencia to Madrid 
A journey of 439 kilometres, Spain’s capital, Madrid, lies to the west of Valencia, and the drive is between three and five hours, depending on the traffic on Route 901. Stop at Segobriga Archaeological Park, one of the top visitor attractions in the Castile-La-Mancha region and the best Roman ruins in Spain. Another popular stop is the city of Cuenca, home to one of Spain’s most famous landmarks, the Hanging House of Cuenca and the country’s most beautiful cathedral.
