Wohnmobilstellplatz Auf der Unteraue

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, run by Stadt Bad Hersfeld. The record gives 5 spaces, so it is small enough to fill up on a summer weekend.

No limit is published for this one. Where German Gemeinden do post a limit it is almost always between one and three nights, so plan on that, and read the board at the entrance for the number that applies here.

Recorded as not here: drinking water, toilets, 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 24/7. 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.

Stadt Bad Hersfeld publishes the details for this site, checked 2026-07-22, and that page is linked below. The board at the entrance and the Gemeinde’s current word beat any listing, this one included.
