First rental of this type of vehicle in a professional context where the rental must take place from France to Canada. Many questions and Cooldrive (Marlène) has been a valuable support in guiding my choices. Efficiency and responsiveness beforehand, and on-site a vehicle and service that met our expectations. No complaints. Great!

Practical Guide to Road Trips in Sweden from Helsingborg
Sweden offers a unique campervan experience thanks to its right to access nature freely, but Helsingborg, located on the southern coast of the country, imposes specific rules to follow for a serene stay in compliance with local regulations.
Driving and Regulations in Helsingborg
When driving your campervan in the Helsingborg region, adhere to Swedish speed limits: 50 km/h in cities, 70 km/h on ordinary roads, and 80 km/h on highways. Helsingborg, like other major Swedish cities, has an environmental zone where only vehicles meeting Euro 6 standards are allowed. Ensure your campervan meets this requirement before driving in the city center.
Sleeping and Hooking Up Near Helsingborg
Helsingborg offers several accommodation options for campervans. The Lerberget campsite, located in Råå by the seaside at the southern tip of the city (Kustgatan 95, 252 70 Råå), offers around 250 pitches with a pool, mini-golf, restaurant, and spa. The Mötesplats Borstahusen campsite, also located in Helsingborg (Kustgatan 95, 252 70), is a well-equipped family-friendly alternative. A campervan area is also available at Smabatshamnen, Parapeten, in the city center.
If you prefer wild camping, note that it is allowed in Sweden, but with significant restrictions. You cannot park in forests, on beaches, in pastures, or on lawns. However, you can park on hard surfaces like asphalt or gravel, particularly near the coastal natural areas of Helsingborg, provided you respect local regulations and do no harm to the environment.
Local Tips and Safety
Helsingborg benefits from an excellent tourist infrastructure and a privileged coastal location. When parking, check local signs indicating the maximum allowed durations: generally 24 hours on weekdays and until the next business day on weekends in designated rest areas and parking lots. Scrupulously respect the environment by leaving no trace and following the guidelines posted locally, especially in coastal natural areas near Helsingborg.
