Camping in Tuscany: complete guide (weather, best time to go & route)

Best time to camp in Tuscany

Most campsites in Tuscany are open from spring through autumn. Peak season is July and August: that's when it's busiest, warmest and most expensive. Book well in advance for that period, especially at the most popular campsites.

Tuscany combines rolling hills, vineyards and art cities like Florence and Siena with the coast and islands of the Etruscan Riviera.

For more quiet and softer prices, the shoulder season (May, June, September) is attractive: pleasant weather, fine scenery and plenty of pitch choice.

Route and access

Plan your route to Tuscany in good time and allow for busy departure days in summer. A stopover halfway makes the trip with children more pleasant. On Ovisola's map you can see at a glance where each campsite is located.

Before you leave, check the applicable traffic rules and any low-emission zones or toll roads on your route. Travelling by motorhome or caravan, allow for dimensions and weight on narrow or steep access roads.

Sights and activities in Tuscany

Beyond the campsite itself, the surroundings complete your holiday. Tuscany offers plenty for walking, cycling, swimming and visiting villages and sights. On the detail page Ovisola shows nearby attractions with their distance.

How do we put this list together?

We rank the campsites in Tuscany by their review score: the highest-rated campsite is at the top. Only campsites with a rating are included, and the list is rebuilt periodically from the latest data, so the order tracks new ratings.

Ovisola maps campsites, motorhome pitches and chalets, searchable by type and amenities. Bookable campsites are reserved directly with the campsite via our partner; the broader coverage comes from OpenStreetMap contributors.
