About the Eriba Familia & what this model offers

The Eriba Familia is a classic model of travel trailer produced by the German company, Eriba Touring GmbH. It was first introduced in the 1970s and has since become one of the most popular models of caravan in Europe. The Familia is known for its classic design and retro style, which is highly sought after by caravan enthusiasts. The Familia is also highly functional, with a compact interior that provides comfortable living space for solo travellers or small families.

The Eriba touring caravans started production in 1957. The origin of their design was from an aeronautical engineer, with the idea that if it would fly well it would tow well. Unlike traditional caravans, Eribas are made from a steel skeleton with an aluminium body giving Eribas a very strong yet aerodynamic build. The Eribas were produced in France up until 2009/10 and from 2012 onwards the Eriba factory was relocated to Germany at Hymer’s headquarters. The post-2012 Eriba models boasted some changes (increase in height including entrance door, galvanized skeleton & more aerodynamic roof).

The Eriba Familia features a compact kitchen area, complete with a sink, two-burner stove, and a small refrigerator, making it possible to prepare meals on the road. The sleeping quarters are cosy, with a comfortable double bed that can be converted into a seating area during the day. The living area is bright and airy, with large windows that provide ample natural light and stunning views of the surrounding landscape. The interior is stylishly finished, with high-quality furnishings and fixtures, and the retro design creates a nostalgic and warm atmosphere. The Familia is also designed to be highly manoeuvrable, making it easy to tow and park, even in tight spaces. Additionally, it is built to be lightweight, making it ideal for travel in a variety of terrains and conditions. Whether you’re travelling solo, with a partner, or with a small family, the Eriba Familia is the perfect choice for a comfortable and stylish road trip.
