Area di sosta camper in viale Giovanni XXIII

03 · The write-up

What it is like to arrive here.

Free to park. Comune di Castel del Rio says so on its own page, which is the reason this one is here rather than on a forum.

This is an area di sosta, a stopover set aside for motorhomes, at Castel del Rio. Comune di Castel del Rio is the body behind it. The address is viale Giovanni XXIII, 40022 Castel del Rio (BO).

No services are listed either way. Arrive with a full water tank and an empty waste tank, and treat anything you find on site as a bonus. An area di sosta promises somewhere to park. It does not promise water.

No stay limit published. One or two nights is the norm at a municipal sosta, and a van that looks settled in is the one that gets a knock on the door.

“Accesso libero”. From Imola, turn right onto viale Giovanni XXIII at the start of the built-up area, then right again after about 50 m.

What the source actually says:

Accesso libero. Accessibile con mezzi privati percorrendo la SS Montanara fino all’inizio dell’abitato di Castel del Rio. Per chi proviene da Imola all’inizio dell’abitato si svolta a destra su viale Giovanni XXIII e, dopo circa 50 mt., di nuovo a destra. Per chi proviene dalla Toscana è necessario attraversare tutto l’abitato.

That comes from Comune di Castel del Rio’s page, which carried a last-updated date of 2023-03-08 when it was read on 2026-07-22. The sign at the entrance and the comune’s current word beat this page, every time: an ordinanza can be rewritten between one season and the next, and nobody sends us a copy.
