Après Adventure

Après Adventure

In January 2024, a team from Bailey travelled across Europe to the Dolomites on an Après Adventure, testing the newly launched Bailey Alora 69-4S motorhome and Endeavour B62 campervan in some of the coldest winter temperatures in Europe. It's always the season. Ready when you are.

Following the recent introduction of the new Bailey Alora range, we put this narrow-bodied motorhome to the test in the Dolomites.

Our journey began at our Bristol-based factory before travelling through France, Germany, and Liechtenstein.

After several days on the road, we arrived in the Dolomites, Italy, where we tested the Alora’s performance on narrow tracks, snow-covered landscapes, and in temperatures as low as -20°C.

On our return journey, we made stops at two of our European suppliers: Truma, where we focused on the Truma Combi Diesel heater, and Thetford, where we learnt about their compressor fridges.
