A comparison of 167 cities in Italy by VanSky score — how comfortable it is to travel in each today. We factor in temperature, wind, sun and conditions by the sea. Sort by any metric and pick your next stop. A comparison of 20 regions of Italy by VanSky score — where it's most comfortable to travel right now. We factor in temperature, wind, sun and conditions by the sea.

The country score (0–100) is computed from all of its cities, not a single point. Cities are grouped into regions, and a region's score is the median of its cities so dense clusters don't outweigh sparse ones. Final score = 0.65 × “best areas” (80th percentile of regions) + 0.35 × “typical conditions” (median of regions), so one warm city can't push the whole country to 100. Each city's score blends warmth (feels-like), sun, rain and wind, adjusted for night temperature and, on the coast, the sea. Data: Open-Meteo, refreshed several times a day.

The scale above shows what share of the country's cities falls into each comfort band. “Best spot” is the most comfortable region or city this week; “typical conditions” is the median score across regions.

VanSky Index

A weather comfort index for travel: a 0–100 score. Recalculated daily from live weather data — temperature, rainfall, wind and sun.

80–100 Ideal
60–79 Comfortable
40–59 Acceptable
20–39 Challenging
0–19 Extreme

How it's calculated:

  • Thermal comfort 35% — temperature + humidity
  • Sunshine 25% — panel charge, mood; in heat the sun is no longer a bonus
  • Precipitation 25% — rain → muddy ground
  • Wind 15% — awning, driving, noise
  • Extremes override all: frost, heat, storm, downpour
  • Heat counts by feels-like temperature: at 32°+ the score can’t reach “Comfortable”, muggy nights lower it further
  • A dangerous day drags the week down: a storm or downpour in the forecast keeps the week from being “Comfortable”
  • Bonus: warm sea, high panel output

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I choose the best city in Italy for van life?
Sort cities by the VanSky column — the higher the score, the more comfortable today. Also check solar panel output and sea temperature if you plan to stay near the coast.
What does the VanSky score mean for a city?
A score from 0 to 100 reflects a composite weather assessment: thermal comfort, precipitation level, wind strength, and sunshine. 80+ is ideal, 60–79 is comfortable, 40–59 is acceptable, below 40 is challenging.
How often is data updated for Italy?
Weather data for all cities in Italy is updated several times a day from the Open-Meteo service based on real observations.

German musician records techno track using sounds from Etrusco motorhome factory

Musician Jonas Holland, known as After Cooking, recorded a techno track using only industrial sounds from the Etrusco motorhome production plant in San Casciano, Tuscany. He captured noises from drills, sanders, and other machinery, assembling them into a rhythmic piece without synthetic sounds. The YouTube video received positive feedback, with some viewers calling it the best advertisement for the brand.

Common rules for motorhome and drone owners in Italy

Italian publication Dronezine notes that many motorhome owners also use drones to film their travels. Since December 2019, liability insurance for drones has been mandatory in Italy, even for models under 250 grams, except for toys without cameras. Pilots must register on the D-flight portal and comply with UAS zone restrictions (no-fly zones near airports, prisons, crowded places). Drone insurance from Dronezine starts at €24.90 per year.

The occupants had set up camp near the Via Don Giordi entrance, hanging laundry and placing tables and chairs. The violation was reported by park visitors. Similar incidents have occurred before, both in the park and along the coast, where motorhomes and tents occupy public spaces without authorisation.

Cortina d'Ampezzo tightens controls on camper van parking

The municipality of Cortina d'Ampezzo announced stricter measures against illegal camping after another incident of degradation caused by a van parked in the city. The council reports litter, sewage, and irregular parking, but also highlights the limitations of current regulations, which make it difficult to fine motorhomes when they are simply parked. In the coming days, checks will be intensified with the support of the provincial police, especially on the Dolomite passes.

18-month-old chokes on potato in camper in Posatora: saved via phone instructions

In Posatora (Ancona), an 18-month-old child choked on a piece of undercooked boiled potato during dinner in a camper van. The parents, tourists from Romagna, immediately called 118, and the operator provided step-by-step instructions for pediatric airway clearance maneuvers. Rescuers from the Croce Gialla of Ancona and an emergency doctor arrived; the child had already begun to recover. He was taken to the Salesi children's hospital in yellow code for further checks.
