Wohnmobil-Stellplätze am Lohneum

03 · The write-up

What it is like to arrive here.

Free to park, and the electricity is metered. That split is the normal German arrangement: standing costs nothing, the machine charges for what you fill and empty. Carry 1 and 2 euro coins, because plenty of these machines still take nothing else.

This is a Wohnmobilstellplatz, a spot set aside for motorhomes to park, run by Stadt Lohne. The record gives 5 spaces, so it is small enough to fill up on a summer weekend.

The posted limit is 3 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.

On site: a waste drain. Recorded as not here: drinking water and toilets. Nothing is recorded either way about showers and an electric hook-up, so do not count on them.

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 Lohne 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.
