In Brief

In Llanes (Asturias), from June 1, 2026, campervan overnight stays are allowed only at the La Talá area (86 spaces), with a €500 fine for violations. In the Ruidera Lakes natural park (Castilla-La Mancha), during the May holidays, campervans overflowed into prohibited zones; the mayor has called in the Civil Guard.

Llanes: new rules for campervans

The municipality of Llanes (Asturias) introduced new parking and overnight rules for campervans on June 1, 2026. The only public area where overnight stays are allowed is La Talá, equipped with water supply and waste disposal, with 86 spaces and a maximum stay of 48 consecutive hours. Daytime parking (9:00–22:00) is permitted in two zones in the city and other municipal lots, but without overnight stays. Violations carry a fine of €500. A special police patrol unit has been created for summer enforcement.

Ruidera Lakes: campervan overcrowding

In the Ruidera Lakes natural park (Castilla-La Mancha), the problem of mass campervan arrivals has resurfaced. During the May holidays, as at Easter, drivers park outside the permitted area, which has only 18 spaces. Ruidera mayor Josefa Moreno stated she has contacted the Civil Guard to monitor and fine illegal parking. An alternative lot at the Peñarroya reservoir (15–20 km away) remains empty, but tourists prefer to stay in the village.

Larraitz sets fee for motorhome overnight parking: €5 per night

A new motorhome service area with electricity, grey/black water disposal and fresh water refill has opened in Larraitz, at the entrance to the Aralar natural park. From September, overnight parking (10 pm–6 am) will cost €5; currently only services are charged: water disposal/refill €5, 24‑hour electricity €6. The €2 million project (10% from the municipality, the rest from EU Next Generation funds) aims to regulate existing wild camping, not to attract more tourists.
