A8 east via Chiemsee. Border at Walserberg — no stop required, vignette already on file. Leave Munich after 09:30 to clear school traffic; arrive Salzburg around midday.
South on A10 Tauern through the Alps — toll passes Tauern + Katschberg. Border at Karawanken tunnel (€8.20). Avoid B320 Liezen underpass; auto-rerouted +12 km.
A1 to Koper, then coastal road to Piran. Park outside the medieval centre — no van access inside walls. Walk in via Tartini Square.
Via Trieste and A4 west across the Friulian plain. Dump & fresh water at Area Sosta Latisana before tolls. Park at Bardolino (east shore Garda) — quieter than west.
A22 Brenner motorway north — IT autostrada then AT Brennerautobahn. Refuel before Brenner (diesel cheapest in Sterzing). Munich arrival ~16:00.

No subscriptions. No auto-renew you have to remember to cancel. Buy a pack when you need it, use it whenever. The more you buy, the cheaper each credit gets.
Move the sliders. We'll show what your plan would cost in credits, which pack covers it cheapest, and whether your free 10 sign-up credits already get you there.
Try the planner properly. Enough for ~3 weekend trips.
Top up €9One season of trips for most drivers. ~10 trips, any length.
Top up €25For full-time vanlife. A year+ of planning at the lowest per-credit rate.
Top up €69Rental fleets and operators. Shared credit pool, per-van profiles, white-label PDFs, API.
Plans cost ~2 credits per trip-day. A weekend = 4. A 5-day loop = 10. A two-week tour = ~28. Re-computes, edits, exports, and offline packs are all free once a plan exists — you only spend credits to create a new plan. Your first plan is free while we're in early access.
No. Never. Buy them in March, use them in October two years later. We don't believe in pressure-selling time-boxed credits — that's how subscription traps work, and we're explicitly not that.
±9% across the last 4,200 completed trips. We update the diesel index every 24 hours, tolls by CAT class, and vignette prices when they change. Overnights are the variance — agriturismo prices wobble. The math is published in the footer of every plan.
31 in Europe today, including all of EU + UK + CH + NO + balkans. Full hazard, zone and overnight data — not just "we can route there". North Africa and Turkey are coming Q3. Coverage map in the footer.
Yes — within 14 days of a top-up, we refund any unused credits from that purchase, no questions. Credits you've already spent on a plan stay spent (we ran the compute, that costs us real money). After 14 days, credits remain yours forever but become non-refundable.
The planner accepts up to 4.0m height, 12m length, 7.5t GVW with full hazard awareness. Anything above that uses an "advisory" routing — we'll tell you when we're not 100% confident. Most overlander builds are inside our coverage.
Yes. Hit "Pack for offline" before you leave and the entire plan (map tiles, hazards, camp pins, alerts) syncs to the app and to your GPX export. No cell signal needed for the drive itself. Offline packs are free — they don't cost credits.
Those are databases — great ones, we use some of their data. WiseTrip is a planner: it knows your van's measurements, it does the routing, it sequences your days, it warns you about things that are not in any camp database (bridges, zones, adapters). We complement Park4Night; we don't replace it.
A small independent team of van travellers and engineers based in Europe. We got tired of planning every leg of a trip twice — once for the route, once for everything a van actually needs — so we built the tool we wanted. You can email us any time; a real person answers.
Yes. The profile system handles caravans (tow logic, length, sway), pickups with rooftop tents, and 4x4 expedition rigs. If you have something unusual, email us — we'll set the profile up with you.
Drop in your van's measurements, sketch a route, and have a complete plan — bridges, zones, camps, costs — in under a minute. Your first plan is free while we're in early access.
