Motorhome owners blocked streets in Gijón to protest new height-limiting arches. Despite barriers, caravans continue parking on nearby lots, claiming they spend money in local shops.
From October 1, 2024, a reform of Spain's General Traffic Regulations takes effect, prohibiting municipalities from discriminating against motorhomes and camper vans in parking. Restrictions on parking or overnight stays must now apply equally to all vehicles, not just to motorhomes. Municipalities retain the right to regulate parking by size, height, or time, but not by vehicle use. Signs specifically banning motorhome parking must be replaced.
Pamplona and its surroundings have designated areas for motorhome parking and overnight stays. The main site, Trinitarios, offers 33 spaces, 24-hour access, CCTV, and water/electricity services. The rate is €10.40 per day, rising to €20.80 during San Fermín (5–15 July). Free alternatives include Ansoáin (with water filling/dumping), Berriozar (30 spaces, 72-hour limit, free except San Fermín at €11.50), and Sarriguren (with green spaces and a playground).
The tire manufacturers' association AFANE has warned of a new requirement for tread depth on trucks, trailers and buses. Under an amendment to the General Vehicle Regulations, the minimum tread depth for these vehicles is 1 mm. Violations are punishable by a fine of 200 euros per tire. Previously, no specific minimum was set for such vehicles.
Josep Jané, a 62-year-old retiree from Barcelona, has been voluntarily maintaining and welcoming guests at the motorhome parking area in Bovera (Lleida) since February. He helps drivers park, informs them about local services, and resolves issues. He moved to the village in April and rents a house there. The initiative was proposed to the municipality, which supported it. The parking area has 9 spaces, with a rotation of 2 per day, hosting over 60 motorhomes monthly, 90% of which are foreign visitors from France, Belgium, the Netherlands, Germany, and Denmark. Jané plans to systematize data collection on visitors. The mayor set a fee of €3/day for electricity and noted that signs prohibit motorhomes from driving through the village.
The Spanish province of Jaén offers 33 motorhome stopover locations, including campsites, free and paid parking areas. A new regulation published in the BOE from October 2026 prohibits blocking motorhome parking in designated zones. The province features four natural parks, the highest density of castles in Europe, and Renaissance heritage.
