It’s a setting we all dream of: staying in a cozy mountain hut, opening the door in the morning to a winter wonderland and the slopes right before our eyes. Yet, dreams are sometimes hard to fulfill. Finding the perfect cabin, checking availability, getting there with all your gear… So why not just turn your mobile home into a cabin on wheels? #1 The perfect site When you are planning to set out with your mobile home in wintertime, make sure to define your plans as precisely as possible: what do you expect from your destination and your camping site?
