Tents and motorhomes to be removed from Karadere beach on the Black Sea
Original source: bnrnews.bg

Authorities in Bulgaria inspected Karadere beach near Byala in Varna region and found nearly 1,000 motorhomes, campers and tents. Owners must remove their vehicles and tents by August 7, or face fines between 250 and 1,500 euros. The mayor of Byala issued a ban in April on setting up tents and motorhomes in the area, yet the 5-kilometer stretch of beach remains covered with them. The area includes dunes where placing structures is strictly prohibited, as is trampling or damaging plants.

The Italian province of Trentino is introducing new parking restrictions for motorhomes and camper vans on Dolomite mountain passes. From 2026, parking along the Sella and Pordoi passes will be limited to short stays with parking discs or tickets to curb illegal camping and mass tourism. The move follows summer 2025 data showing over half of parking spots on some sections were occupied overnight.

The German motorhome manufacturer Knaus Tabbert AG has accepted a fine exceeding six million euros from the Stuttgart public prosecutor's office. The penalty was imposed because the company had understated the weight of its motorhomes, a practice linked to the popular 3.5-tonne limit for standard driver's licenses. The company has made financial provisions for the fine, stating the payment will not significantly impact its annual results.
