Get behind the wheel, turn the key, and feel the breeze. Hit the Road features the individuality of overland vehicles, their passionate owners, and the inspiring journeys that celebrate a life on the move. There's a worldwide movement of people escaping the buzz of cities and diving into nature-packed camping trips and weekends away. Recharged, some head back on Sunday evening; others keep driving for months on end as they visit new countries, experience new cultures, and collect new memories. Hit the Road excites as a collection of overland adventures that put the focus on those who have decided to leave the average life behind--and not just millennials. Their rides range from the classic Volkswagen camper to cozy refurbished Airstream trailers and unstoppable fully-equipped 4×4 Adventuremobiles.

Experts share their experiences, their tips and tricks, and their favorite campfire-friendly recipes for life on four wheels. Are you ready to hit the road?

On the road

Armchair reading for now, but a road trip in the near future.......Thanks for the quick service

although there was some great photography. Heavy european focus

Not the book I was expecting it to be. Light on details, although there was some great photography. Heavy european focus.

Perfect for the arm chair traveler

Have enjoyed reading the book and spent a lot of time looking at the different vans. Good photography with just the right amount of text. Even better for the arm chair traveler

This book is great. I bought it because I love road trips ...

This book is great. I bought it because I love road trips and cool old cars and the photography is great. Perfect for the coffee table and I'm always picking it up to flip through. Really nicely done.

For #VANLIFE lovers

Partriamo dal fatto che i libri di Gestalten sono sempre di altissima qualità ed è sempre un piacere sfogliarli e collezionarli. Questo non fa eccezione anche se le storie raccontate in questo volume sono davvero ridotte all'osso (tolte un paio di eccezioni). Tuttavia è un libro che fa sognare di essere già in viaggio grazie alle belle fotografie. Un must per chi sogna, si avvicina o -come me (noi)- è già dentro la #VANLIFE. E' sempre bello vedere che sono in tanti quelli che dell' ON THE ROAD ne fanno una scelta di vita.

Espectacular

Espectacular edición. Tanto la maquetación de textos como las fotografías... de 10!

Muy bonito

Libro bien realizado y con una maquetación muy cuidada. Es un libro para tener en el salón e ir des cubriéndolo poco a poco.

Fantástico

Muy en la línea de otros libros de la casa, buenas fotografías (quizás algo pequeñas) e inspiradoras historias.

Van life

Didn’t look at it. Was a gift. My boss liked it.
