Andorra introduces €600 fine for overnight stays in motorhomes and caravans outside permitted areas

Andorra has enforced a ban on overnight stays and camping in motorhomes and caravans outside official zones since 2025. Violators face a €600 fine, reduced to €300 if paid on the spot; refusal to pay results in vehicle seizure by police. The measure aims to reduce pressure on nature and infrastructure, following similar restrictions in Spain, Portugal, and France. Legal overnight options include campsites and designated areas, with an updated list available from the tourism office.

The 3-3-3 rule for slow travel in motorhomes

The 3-3-3 rule, promoted as a camping trend for summer 2026, limits daily driving to 300 km, arrival by 3:00 PM, and a minimum stay of three nights per site. Adapted from the US version (300 miles), it aims to reduce driving stress and campsite booking pressure. In Italy, the rule suits mountainous roads and traffic, allowing travelers to explore regions more thoroughly.
