In Brief

Basconcillos del Tozo opened a 12-space motorhome area, while El Vendrell revived plans for a stop after rejecting it over campsite competition.

The municipality of Basconcillos del Tozo (Burgos) has opened a equipped motorhome stop near the N-627 road. The site includes 12 spaces, a rest area with tables and benches, and all necessary services. The project was carried out due to increased tourist flow, partly thanks to the proximity of Las Loras Geopark and the filming of the Netflix series "Lobo". Previously, travelers parked spontaneously near the sports complex, causing waste disposal problems.

Meanwhile, the municipality of El Vendrell (Tarragona) has returned to discussing the creation of an equipped motorhome area, which it had previously rejected due to possible competition with campsites. The proposal will be brought before the Municipal Tourism Council with participation of hoteliers and travel agents. The initiative comes from the opposition group ERC-Som Poble and has received support from all factions. The region already has a network of five municipal stops with five spaces each, with waste dumping service and water supply, and a maximum stay of three days.

Caravaners back new Canary Islands decree: 'We were 60 years behind the mainland'

The president of the Autonomous Motorhome Platform (P.A.C.A.), Jesús Gallardo, supported the new outdoor accommodation regulation being prepared by the Canary Islands Tourism Ministry. He noted that the archipelago still lacks legal campsites, putting it 60 years behind mainland Spain. The 18-article regulation sets requirements for motorhome areas, which are currently absent, leading to informal parking on beaches and commercial lots. All nine associations involved in the consultation approved the document.

Motorhomes overwhelm A Guarda

In A Guarda (Pontevedra), the motorhome parking area at the port, designed for six vehicles, is hosting more than twenty this summer, causing neighbor complaints. BNG spokesperson Anxo Baz criticized the location next to a museum in the urban center, as well as insufficient control and confusing signage. He said the facility fails as a park-and-ride, contrary to Mayor Roberto Carrero's promise, and is becoming an uncontrolled camping area.
