CLC reports on 2025 motorhome parking, Camping-Car Park seeks to lower tourist tax

In Brief

French association CLC assisted 40 municipalities in 2025, while Camping-Car Park proposes cutting the tourist tax from €1.32 to €0.22.

The French association CLC (Comité de Liaison du Camping-Car) published its 2025 report, stating it assisted 40 municipalities with motorhome parking issues. Projects include creating rest areas with parking in Montbizot and a multimodal zone in Pressagny-l’Orgueilleux. For 2026, priorities are expanding municipal cooperation, training mayors, and strengthening legal measures against restrictions.

Meanwhile, the motorhome network Camping-Car Park proposes legislating a reduction in the tourist tax at its sites from €1.32 to €0.22. The company recorded 5 million overnight stays in 2025, up 15% from 2024. The CEO called the current rate "absurd," as it equals the tax charged at top-tier campsites.
