Austria can boast an exceptionally wide range of skiing for families with children. One of the popular family friendly resorts is Almenwelt Lofer, located near the border with Germany. Winter still cannot reach Poland. It settles somewhere abroad, so everyone who lacks snow has to look for it in another country. It definitely came to Austria, where you can ski for a good dozen or so weeks. If you are looking forward to a winter holiday filled with all-day madness on the slopes, you should go to Almenwelt Lofer , a resort located approx. 42 km from Salzburg .

Averso is probably the most important model in the offer for the German brand Buerstner. By definition, it is a trailer that provides good quality at a good price, and therefore one that can meet the expectations of as many customers as possible. And if so, don't expect any fireworks from it. Buerstner offers four models of caravans. The most "economical" model is the Premio, available in Germany from 13,500 euros. But the Averso model should be considered a typical Buerstner standard and we will deal with it today. The higher models represent extended concepts of the Averso model, as evidenced by their names - Averso Top and Averso Plus.

More and more manufacturers offer small cars with camping features. A few years ago, this trend was also picked up by Volkswagen, offering recreational vehicles based on the Caddy small delivery model. Caravanning, once stereotypically associated with the cheerful life of a retired Western old man, is now gaining more and more popularity among young people. Volkswagen took advantage of this fact when preparing the Caddy Tramper and Caddy Maxi Tramper models for young customers who love to travel, but cannot afford to buy a full-size motorhome.

How to prepare for a trip when a gusty wind blows? It is definitely not worth hurrying then, because nervousness and high speed can only make such a trip more difficult for us. We will do better by accepting the fact that we will reach our destination much later than usual. When winds of 90-100 km / h or more are blowing, the roads get especially dangerous. Then, if possible, it is best to give up driving and leave the car away from poles, trees or other elements that could fall over the car. However, if the wind hit us during the trip or we cannot give up the trip, then we should prepare in advance that we will be going to our destination even twice as long as in favorable weather conditions.

If someone is delighted with the beauty of the Hochjoch Glacier, he should come to Maso Corto. Especially when you feel at least confident while skiing - the routes here are mostly steep and quite difficult. Maso Corto (Kurzas) is the main ski resort of Val Senales , the Italian valley lying at the foot of the aforementioned glacier. It is easy to get to the top of Hochjoch, and is considered by many tourists the most beautiful year-round ski area in Italy. And the valley itself is very popular with families with children. The main reason is its beauty, tourists are also tempted by the lack of crowds and friendly prices. It is a favorite training place for national teams.

For this year's CMT trade fair in Stuttgart, which takes place in January, Hymer has prepared an interesting novelty. It is the ML-T model, the base of which is the Mercedes Sprinter. Hymer ML-T is a semi-integrated vehicle, so in the front it looks like a typical delivery truck, but in the back, instead of a luggage space, it has a camping section. You can choose from versions with a 4-cylinder engine with 129 HP and a 6-cylinder engine with 190 HP. The 7G-Tronic 7-speed automatic transmission is also available on request.

When it is too dark outside the window, the days are gray and unpleasant, you want to be in a place where it is warm and soothing - for example, in the thermal park relaxation pool. Snow may not spoil us, but the temperatures - especially at night - can make many people dream of a proper heating of the bones. Is there a better place for it than the thermal springs? There are plenty of healing water baths both in Poland (it is enough to mention Terma Bania in Bukowina Tatrzańska or thermal pools in Zakopane) and abroad. To take advantage of the wide range of swimming pools, saunas and jacuzzis, you do not have to travel far. Our Slovak neighbors have several tempting complexes where you can relax as much as you want.

The regulations in force in Poland do not require drivers to carry too many additional items of equipment in the car. Some, however, are worth getting interested in yourself, either for safety reasons or simply for convenience. In every car moving on Polish roads, two additional elements are absolutely required - a fire extinguisher and a warning triangle. In the case of a fire extinguisher , it should have a capacity of min. 1 kg, have valid homologation and undergo annual technical inspections. Remember that the fire extinguisher should be placed in an easily accessible place, so definitely not in the trunk.

Volkswagen T5 has recently become a fashionable object of transformation. Although its modest dimensions do not allow it to be made a full-fledged motorhome, the Volkswagen version of California with a retractable high roof fired the imaginations of motorhome manufacturers.

Currently, the offer includes three models based on Fiat Ducato and one, the smallest, based on the Volkswagen T5.

The saying that no matter where, it matters with whom is true once again. Caravanning enthusiasts know it perfectly well, arranging next rallies in various places. It is true that we still have a few months until May, but amateurs of independent travel are already counting down the days. The 11th Halcamp Rally takes place this month - although it is difficult to talk about one specific point in the case of a "mobile" event. We are talking about a rally divided into two stages, the first of which will be organized in Szczecin, and the second in Ciechocinek.

Far from Poland, in Krasnodar Krai, there is a resort where in a few weeks there will be thousands of ski lovers. Russia's Sochi is the proud host of the 22nd Winter Olympics . For many it is simple - if skiing, then probably the Alps or other mountain ranges rising up towards the sky from the European continent. Not on another one, because it is too far, and besides, too expensive. However, when someone who is not afraid of hundreds of kilometers decides to go on a winter trip, and can afford a fairly large expense, the boundaries may shift significantly. As a result, it can focus on resorts that a skier with a thinner wallet is unlikely to think of. For example, about the famous Russian resort of Sochi, located on the Black Sea.
