Mountain Trail RV is one of the more genuinely engineering-led names in Australian off-road caravan manufacturing. Founded as Mountain Trail Campers nearly two decades ago, the company designs and manufactures from raw materials in-house, an uncompromising approach that still defines the business today from its Albury, NSW factory.
What sits underneath every MTRV van is what sets them apart: chassis designed by MTRV engineers from Australian RHS and SHS steel, laser cut, welded in Albury and hot-dip galvanised, paired with the brand's own engineered independent air-bag suspension proven on harsh Australian terrain. That engineering pedigree includes the EDX V1, which won Camper Trailer of the Year in 2016, the only year the company entered.
The range covers the full off-road spectrum, from compact, lightweight off-road hybrids through to full-width LXV caravans with internal kitchens and complete off-grid systems, topped by the new PARAGON luxury flagship with an integrated energy system managed via touchscreen control.
