A new Spanish platform, RadarCamp, lets motorhome and camper travellers stay overnight for free on hosts' properties, such as vineyards, farms or natural parks, in exchange for booking a local experience. Offerings include sleeping among vineyards with a wine tasting, next to bison in a nature reserve, or at Europe's only coffee plantation. Spain registers about 20 new motorhomes daily, with over 300,000 on the road, according to co-founder David Santos.

Overnight Stays in Camper Vans in Spanish National Parks: Rules and Restrictions

Since 2023, sleeping in a motorhome or camper van in Spain is not considered camping if no additional elements are deployed outside the vehicle's footprint. However, overnight stays are prohibited in most national parks to protect ecosystems, though some, like Picos de Europa, have designated paid and free areas. For route planning, it is recommended to use specialized apps and maps, such as Park4Night or the map from the Spanish Federation of Motorhome Associations (FEAA).
