Residents of the Ferlugi hamlet complain about noise and disorder at the scenic viewpoint, where tourists increasingly park motorhomes and pitch tents. With no sanitary facilities, visitors wash on site, and in the evenings loud groups gather to consume alcohol and other substances. Locals also worry about road conditions and safety, but their appeals to the Trieste municipality have gone unanswered.

Cinzia has unveiled the Pegasso 517 motorhome, built on a Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 517 chassis. The vehicle is 6.6 meters long and offers up to 20 square meters of living space thanks to two slide-out sections. It sleeps six people across two double beds and one drop-down bed above the cab. Standard equipment includes solar panels, a generator, an additional outdoor kitchen, and a heating system.

The new edition of the Salone del Camper in Parma is set to welcome tens of thousands of visitors. The event features four thematic areas: motorhomes and caravans with world premieres, accessories, routes and the new BikeUP Travel Days section. It will be held at the Fiere di Parma exhibition center, with parking and 300 equipped pitches for overnight stays.

Gloria Oppici, project manager of the Salone del Camper in Parma, says motorhomes are no longer just a symbol of long planned holidays but meet current needs for freedom, nature contact and flexible itineraries. A study by Ergo, a spin-off of the Sant'Anna School in Pisa, found that a motorhome trip cuts CO2 emissions by 70%, fossil fuel use by 64% and water consumption by 73% compared with traditional travel. Oppici notes that younger generations often start with rentals rather than purchases, and that in a Salone survey 93% of respondents chose motorhome travel for authentic landscapes and freedom.
