Original source: La Stampa

According to Eurostat, in 2025 the EU recorded 413 million nights spent in campsites and motorhome parks, with 40.1 million in Italy. The Parma Motorhome Show (12–20 September) has become the second largest in Europe, showcasing trends: modern motorhomes feature multimedia systems, battery-powered air conditioning, Bluetooth lighting control, and solar panels. 25.7% of owners travel with pets, and since April 2025 new EU rules require microchipping and vaccination.

Il Conero campsite in Portonovo faces appeals from residents

In Ancona, a family owning property adjacent to the future Il Conero campsite in Portonovo is preparing to appeal the permits granted by authorities. Preparatory work is expected to begin in late summer, with opening scheduled for June 2027. The dispute dates back to 2008 when the campsite first opened, was closed in 2010, and has been in legal battles since. The family challenges hydrogeological constraints, the building permit, and access issues.
