Original source: Astorga Digital

In Brief

A campsite with 30 tent pitches and 78 motorhome parking spaces is proposed in Astorga (León). In Elche (Alicante), a 3-star motorhome campsite with 157 pitches and a pool is under public consultation. Both sites are on agricultural land.

Two new campsite projects for motorhomes have emerged in Spain. In the municipality of Astorga (León), in the Murias de Rechivaldo area, applicant Ireneusz Bejrowski Rompczyk has requested a license for a campsite. The project includes 30 tent pitches, 78 motorhome parking spaces, green areas, rest zones, and a children's playground. Two buildings are planned: one with a reception, shop, first-aid room, and toilets; the other with showers, changing rooms, laundry, and technical rooms. The budget is around 242,412 euros. The plot is classified as agricultural land, requiring a special use permit.

In Elche (Alicante), the Valencian Government has put out for public consultation a project for a 3-star motorhome campsite in the Valverde Bajo area. The plot covers about 19,500 sq m on non-urbanizable land. The project includes 157 parking spaces, a swimming pool, a bar, a children's playground, and wastewater treatment facilities. Documentation will be available for review and objections for 20 working days via the Government's digital platform.

PSOE accuses Tenerife government of three-year delay on 350-space motorhome plan

The Socialist Party of Tenerife (PSOE) has accused the island's government (CC and PP) of failing to implement a plan for 350 motorhome spaces, presented in May 2023. The €10 million project included six sites in six municipalities, but no progress has been made in three years.

33 municipalities in Spain join forces to ban motorhomes and caravans from local roads

The 33 municipalities that make up the Aran Valley in Catalonia have agreed to prohibit motorhomes and caravans from using all local tracks and roads. The decision follows overcrowding and repeated breaches of coexistence rules by some users. Fines range from €200 to €3,000, with higher penalties for ecological damage. Authorities stress the legal distinction between parking (including sleeping inside the vehicle) and camping (setting up tables, chairs, awnings, etc.), which remains banned.

Canary Islands Government Acknowledges Over 30-Year Legal Gap in Campervan Tourism

The Canary Islands government is finalising new regulations for outdoor accommodation to address legal gaps that have existed for over 30 years. The new rules are expected to come into effect before 15 September, pending approval from the Consultative Council and the Government Council. Director General for Tourism Miguel Ángel Rodríguez Martínez acknowledged the lack of regulation since 1995. The government lacks official statistics on existing sites, but user numbers can reach tens of thousands during peak seasons.

Spanish municipalities must change signs banning motorhome parking from October 1

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.
