Gas stations with showers: that little luxury on the road
Where to find gas stations with showers?
Not all stations advertise it loud and clear, but more and more gas stations offer showers for truck drivers, travelers on the road, or anyone else who needs them. Some are free to access, others require a fuel ticket, and many simply pay a few euros and you’re done.
At Mapas Campers, we make it easy: you can filter by “shower” and see on the map which gas stations offer them, whether they’re open 24 hours a day, and what other travelers who’ve been there have to say.
Tips for taking advantage of showers at gas stations
💧 Although each gas station has its own rules and conditions, there are some things you can keep in mind to make the experience as comfortable as possible:
1. Always carry your “shower kit” with you
Keep a small bag ready with the basics: a towel, flip-flops, gel or soap in a small container, and, if possible, a change of clothes. That way, when you see an available shower, you won’t have to search through all your luggage. Flip-flops, especially, are a good idea for hygiene and comfort.
2. Ask without fear
There aren’t always visible signs. Showers are often located indoors or require a key or code at the counter. Ask in store or at the checkout; the staff are usually familiar with them and will tell you how to access them.
3. Check if it’s free or paid
Some showers are completely free, others are included if you refuel, and in others you’ll have to pay (usually between €1 and €5). Ask ahead of time or consult apps and maps like Camper Maps, where other travelers have already left this information.
4. Bring your own paper or supplies
Sometimes, there aren’t any papers, mirrors, or hangers. Bringing a small waterproof bag to store your clothes or a portable hook can save you money on more than one occasion. If you have a quick-drying towel, even better.
5. Be prompt and respectful
Remember there may be other people waiting. Use your time, leave everything clean, and if anything is broken or dirty, let the staff know so they can fix it.
6. Leave a helpful review for other travelers
If you’ve used a shower en route and it was good (or bad), share it. A simple note on Google Maps or Camper Maps can be very helpful to those coming behind you.
