Wohnmobilstellplatz Garstadt

03 · The write-up

What it is like to arrive here.

Free to park. No price is published for anything else here, and German Gemeinden commonly meter the water, the power and the waste drain separately, so carry 1 and 2 euro coins in case there is a machine.

This is a Wohnmobilstellplatz, a spot set aside for motorhomes to park. The record gives 11 spaces, so it is big enough that you are unlikely to be turned away outside peak weekends.

The posted limit is 7 days. German Gemeinden do enforce these, usually with a Parkscheibe, the blue parking disc you set to your arrival time and leave on the dashboard.

Recorded as not here: an electric hook-up and a waste drain. Treat this as a place to park rather than a place to service the van, and fill and empty somewhere you have checked.

Opening hours on the record read Apr-Oct. Winter is the thing to watch in Germany regardless: water points on open-air sites get shut off over the cold months because a full pipe freezes and splits, so from about November assume the tap is dry even when the parking is open.

The official page for this site is linked below and was checked 2026-07-22. Open it before a long detour, and remember that the board at the entrance and the Gemeinde’s current word beat any listing, this one included.
