Aosta and Poggibonsi: Camper Area Renovations Move Forward
Original source: oksiena.it

In Brief

In Aosta, a private investor proposed renovating the camper area; the municipality also considers a second site. In Poggibonsi, the Vallone camper area renovation project was approved for €200,000.

In Aosta, a private investor has proposed renovating the municipal camper area on Via Caduti del Lavoro. The municipality is considering a tender for the renovation, which includes expansion, landscaping, shaded areas, and upgraded sanitary facilities. In parallel, authorities are studying the construction of a second, smaller camper area farther from the center. Since 2018, the area has had no manager due to unprofitability, and users complain about lack of electricity, dirt, and non-working toilets.

In Poggibonsi (Tuscany), the renovation project for the Vallone camper area has been approved. The total budget is €200,000, partially funded by the Ministry of Tourism (€36,000). Plans include 10 equipped pitches with controlled access, video surveillance, Wi-Fi, a picnic area, water and electricity supply, an information point, an automatic barrier, traffic lights, and enhanced lighting. Mayor Susanna Cenni noted that the renovation is part of a broader plan, including negotiations with private companies for a larger camper area in a strategic location.

The Fiumicino city council unanimously approved the creation of municipal equipped areas for temporary motorhome parking. The aim is to regulate the flow of motorhome tourists, protect the coastal natural areas and tap into a growing tourism market that can bring resources to local businesses. Average daily spending per person in this segment is nearly 98 euros. Due to a lack of parking and infrastructure, weekends and summer see wild parking, bivouacs and unregulated gatherings at critical points such as Piazzale Molinari in central Fiumicino, Focene, the seafronts of Fregene and Maccarese, and near the delicate dunes of Passoscuro. The measure, proposed by the Forza Italia council group, commits the administration to identify municipal land suitable for motorhome parking, prioritising high-tourism areas, and to equip them with modern Camper Service systems including waste water disposal, drinking water, electric charging points, automated barriers and digital payment systems.

In Como's Tavernola district, dozens of trees, including a century-old poplar, have been felled to expand the camper area at Piazzale Famiglia Mauri. The project, backed by a bipartisan city council vote, will more than double the number of motorhome pitches. Residents protested in May, but the felling continues; criticism focuses on the lack of toilets and the fate of the greenery.

A motorhome service area project in Bibbiena, presented in early 2023 as Casentino Village, has not been realised. The project envisaged private investment of approximately 250,000 euros and 32 pitches for motorhomes with electric hook-ups, waste disposal, toilets, showers, barbecue and picnic areas. In 2024–2025 residents of the lower-lying streets reported damage to their homes; the municipality acknowledged the need for geological surveys. In July 2025 the municipality awarded Geotecnica Lavori srl a contract for continuous drilling to 20 metres, sampling and inclinometer installation for 6,032.90 euros, with a 30-day deadline. According to available information, the works have not been carried out and monitoring has not begun.

On Sunday, 27 September, from 9:30 to 19:00, Bonometti Centrocaravan in Altavilla Vicentina holds an open day. The event follows the Salone del Camper in Parma and launches the dealership's seasonal calendar. Visitors can view 2027 caravan and camper novelties, as well as new and used vehicles from Bürstner, Carado, Etrusco, Hymer, Laika and Crosscamp. PLEINAIRCLUB members receive a 10% discount on camping and leisure accessories, excluding promotions.
