Iceland's Ring Road stretches 1,322 km around the entire island, linking glaciers, volcanic landscapes and coastal fjords in a single continuous loop. From the capital Reykjavík, you can drive 390 km north-east to reach Akureyri, the country's second-largest town, or head 270 km south-east to the mighty Skógafoss waterfall. Along the way, the Vatnajökull ice cap — Europe's largest glacier by volume — dominates the south-east, while the Snæfellsnes Peninsula to the west offers dramatic lava fields and the glacier-topped Snæfellsjökull volcano. Geothermal hot springs dot the landscape, from the famous Blue Lagoon near Keflavík to the Mývatn Nature Baths in the north. Iceland's roads are generally well-maintained in summer, though highland tracks (F-roads) require 4×4 vehicles and are off-limits to standard campervans. Coastal routes, however, are ideal for motorhome travel, with regular service stops and fuel stations spaced along the Ring Road. Whether you want to chase the Northern Lights in autumn or explore under the midnight sun in June, a campervan gives you the flexibility to stop wherever the landscape calls. With Yescapa, you hire directly from local owners across Iceland, choosing from a range of campervans and motorhomes that suit your group size and travel style — a practical, peer-to-peer way to discover this extraordinary island at your own pace.
The best time to hire a campervan in Iceland is from June to August, when daylight stretches to nearly 24 hours and highland roads open for the season. The Þjóðhátíð festival on the Westman Islands each August draws thousands for music and bonfires, while Reykjavík Culture Night in mid-August fills the capital with free concerts and fireworks. September and October bring darker skies — ideal for Northern Lights viewing from your motorhome. Book early for summer, as it is the most popular season. With Yescapa, peer-to-peer pricing often offers better value than traditional hire, especially outside peak months.
To help you plan your trip, we have selected six unmissable road trips, suitable for all travelers.
This 450 km route loops from Akureyri through Húsavík, Ásbyrgi canyon and Dettifoss — Europe's most powerful waterfall. Allow 5–8 days to explore whale-watching harbours and the Mývatn geothermal area. Well suited to campervans, with campsites at each major stop along the way.
Cover 400 km of winding coastal roads between Egilsstaðir and Höfn over 5–8 days. Pass through the fishing villages of Seyðisfjörður and Djúpivogur, with mountain-backed fjords at every turn. A campervan is ideal for the narrow roads, and campsites are dotted along the coast.
This 900 km journey follows Iceland's south coast from Reykjavík past Seljalandsfoss, Vík and Jökulsárlón glacier lagoon before reaching Egilsstaðir. Plan 7–11 days to enjoy black-sand beaches and Vatnajökull views. Motorhomes handle the paved Route 1 comfortably, with regular service stops.
At just 250 km, this short Iceland route packs in Þingvellir National Park, Geysir and Gullfoss waterfall, then continues to Seljalandsfoss. Perfect for 3–6 days in a campervan, with well-equipped campsites near each landmark and easy driving on paved roads throughout.
A 280 km loop from Borgarnes around the Snæfellsnes Peninsula takes in Kirkjufell mountain, Arnarstapi's sea cliffs and the Snæfellsjökull glacier. Allow 3–6 days to explore lava fields and fishing villages. The route suits both campervans and motorhomes, with campsites in Stykkishólmur and Ólafsvík.
The full 1,322 km circuit of Iceland connects Reykjavík, Akureyri, Egilsstaðir and Höfn in one grand loop. Set aside 10–15 days to take in waterfalls, glaciers and geothermal springs. A motorhome offers comfort for the longer stretches, and campsites are available in every region along Route 1.

Iceland offers a wide network of campsites spread from the capital region to remote fjords and highland edges. Most sites provide electricity hook-ups, hot showers and toilet blocks suitable for both campervans and motorhomes, and many include kitchen shelters — a welcome feature in changeable weather. The Camping Card scheme covers dozens of sites across Iceland, making multi-stop trips straightforward and affordable. Whether you park beside a coastal harbour or beneath a volcanic ridge, you will find well-maintained facilities throughout the country.
Iceland has no motorway toll system, so all roads are free to use. The main Ring Road (Route 1) is mostly paved and single-carriageway, with a general speed limit of 90 km/h on open roads and 50 km/h in towns. Motorhomes and campervans follow the same limits, but take extra care on gravel sections in the east and north. F-roads — highland tracks marked with an "F" prefix — are unpaved and legally restricted to 4×4 vehicles only; standard campervans and motorhomes are not permitted. Fuel stations appear every 50–100 km along Route 1, though gaps widen in the Eastfjords, so plan refuelling stops ahead.
La mejor elección en Bretaña. Furgoneta impecable, nueva, muy cómoda, muy bien pensada y con todos los accesorios que puedes necesitar, fantástica. Nosotros viajamos desde España y solicitamos nos recogiesen en el aeropuerto. Sophie y Dominique han sido extremadamente amables, la comunicación muy fluida. Sin duda la recomiendo a todos los que piensen en viajar por Bretaña y, si vuelvo, repetiré. Gracias a Sophie y Dominique por vuestra amabilidad!
I had the most wonderful trip in Eve’s van. It has everything you need, a great sized fridge, a large comfy bed, cooking equipment, electrics to be off grid, a great shower & toilet. The van ran very smoothly and was a perfect size even driving through the towns was no problem at all. They were very accommodating, helping me with local tip and recommendations. I’d 100% recommend this van to anyone thinking of taking a road trip, you won’t regret it :)
Inigio and his lovely girlfriend looked after Dolly for one week here in the Algarve area. They brought her back clean and in really good shape. Before and during the rental period we had a very good dialogue. I can highly reccomend them to lend your car. :-)
Our trip was fantastic, couldn't recommend travelling Sicily via Camper further. Angela and Luca made that super easy with clear comms and help pre booking, during holiday and after. pick up and drop off was a breeze. Clear instructions on how to use the van. All in all great trip.
Fabio made the whole process super easy and was very flexible with our plans. The van was perfect. Practically brand new and had all we needed.
Fantastic experience. Raul really went above and beyond to help us out and was always responsive with any queries we had. The van was in excellent condition, had everything we needed, and was ideal for our trip into the Pyrenees, plus heading south for the solar eclipse. Would highly recommend.
