The DGT warns of the new regulations for motorhomes: what changes for parking and camping in municipalities

The Spanish Directorate-General for Traffic (DGT) has issued a warning regarding new regulations governing the parking and camping of motorhomes and camper vans within municipalities. The update addresses the growing popularity of 'caravaning' in Spain, which has increased the frequency of these vehicles on the road and necessitated clearer guidelines for their use in public spaces.

These regulatory changes are intended to resolve emerging conflicts between the rise of nomadic travel and local municipal management. By distinguishing between parking and camping, the DGT aims to standardize how these vehicles are treated, providing clarity for both travelers and local authorities as the trend of improvising routes continues to expand across the country.
