Where to go by Estonia campervan rental or motorhome hire

Estonia is fast becoming one of Europe’s favourite destinations for its nearly intact medieval Old Town in the capital, Tallinn. But outside its UNESCO-protected ramparts, there’s plenty of nature and architecture to see in this Baltic gem.

An easy one-hour drive from Tallinn with an Estonia motorhome rental or campervan hire is Rakvere and its 13th century castle ruins. This town boasts of a scenic coast and postcard-worthy Lahemaa National Park. Make a stop here for urban comforts and rural atmosphere.

Baltic Region

Follow the coastline to the east in Narva, the closest you can get to Russia – St. Petersburg is 100 miles away. On the way to the south, you’ll encounter falls and nature reserves, arriving at the deep forests and deep blue lakes of this region famed for its historical manors and churches, and the oldest town in the Baltics: Tartu, now a bustling university town.

To the west facing the Baltic Sea are holiday resort towns where the sandy beaches of Parnu await. Soothe aching muscles at the spas of Haapsalu where there’s a caravan park for your Estonia motorhome rental. Or bring your binoculars for a day of birdwatching at the “land of bogs,” Soomaa National Park.

Traces of Soviet rule are easy enough to see in Paldiski, a deserted Soviet Army base that is now easily accessible on a day trip from Tallinn. Before the Russians, Scandinavian kings and Teutonic Knights ruled over this land, who left behind a rich legacy of manor houses, about 200 of which are under state protection.

Estonian Islands

Surprisingly, Estonia has more than 1,500 islands easily accessible via a short ferry ride from the west coast. Some of the most popular are Saaremaa and Hiiumaa, two of its largest islands. They are covered in juniper groves and pine forests, with very few signs of development save for 19th century lighthouses and windmills. There are also plenty of camping, hiking, cycling, sailing and fishing opportunities in some of the smaller islands.

For those looking at travelling further afield, one way motorhome rentals from Estonia are available to the Scandinavian countries of Norway, Sweden and Finland.
