In 2025, Italy registered 7,936 new motorhomes, a growth rate 17 times higher than the European average (0.6%). The turnover of the mobile tourism sector (motorhomes, caravans, camper vans) reached €8.5 billion. The Ministry of Tourism allocated funds to create or upgrade 4,400 parking spaces in 170 municipalities. However, Italy lacks a 'right to roam' principle, and wild camping outside designated areas is mostly prohibited.

IT Italy

Motorhome travel is gaining popularity in Italy, now attracting not only families and retirees but also young couples and friend groups. Industry data shows an increase in rentals, parking areas, and equipped campsites, especially in natural and coastal destinations. When costs are shared, a motorhome can be more affordable than hotels, particularly in areas with high summer prices. It is advised to book parking spots in advance, avoid August if possible, and choose easy routes for first-timers.

Carabinieri in Casalmaggiore have reported a 44-year-old man for fraud after he allegedly sold a camper online, collected a €500 deposit, and then vanished. The buyer, a local resident, transferred the money to an IBAN provided by the seller, who then stopped responding. Investigation revealed the camper belonged to someone else, and the documents sent by the fraudster were not genuine. The suspect was identified and charged.

A mobile health unit from the National Health Equity Program (PNES) will be available today in Paternò on Via Roma 28/30 from 4 PM to 8 PM. The initiative, organized with the collaboration of Penelope, is funded by the European Union and the Italian Ministry of Health. The Catania health authority operates three such units to reach neighborhoods, places of worship, squares, and suburbs. The unit is staffed by a multidisciplinary team including doctors, nurses, social workers, and cultural mediators speaking Arabic, French, and English. Services include medical examinations, prescriptions, referrals to specialists, free medications (classes A and C), and dental check-ups. All services are free, even without documents or a health card.

In the Italian region of Salento, particularly in Gallipoli and Porto Cesareo, tourists in motorhomes are parking near cliffs, among dunes, and in prohibited areas, avoiding equipped parking areas and campsites. This results in municipalities losing significant tax revenue, including tourist tax and waste tax, with damages estimated at 50-60 thousand euros per season. Porto Cesareo has deployed patrols to address violations, while Gallipoli is considering structural measures.

Several campgrounds at Lake Garda offer extensive entertainment for children and amenities for parents. These include Baia Verde with animation and pools, Eden with a water park and private beach, Bella Italia with a kids' club and shows, Spiaggia D'Oro with water slides and an indoor play area, and Sportcamping Rio Vantone at Lake Idro, which focuses on sports and nature. Some campgrounds are open year-round.
