Despite our unfortunate experience of having our windshield cracked during this trip, it was a fantastic journey that we highly recommend. A rock that literally fell from the sky while we were driving caused a crack that needed to be repaired for safety reasons. Luckily, we found a Carglass workshop in the Valencian Community . The staff was very attentive and quick, and we didn't miss any of those beautiful castles during our trip.

Don't go! Discover with us the best attractions of the Valencian Community aboard our motorhome . You'll love it!

Province of Castellón, land of castles and beaches for your route through the Valencian Community in a motorhome

Peñíscola

One of the most visited tourist towns in Spain and one of the most beautiful on the Costa de Azahar. This town served as a refuge for the viceroy of Valencia and represents a cinema destination, which has served as the setting for several films and series such as "Game of Thrones", for its historic Papa Luna castle, the port and its beaches.

In Peñíscola, there is a paid motorhome area, near the beach, very clean and with essential services.

Morella

Undoubtedly one of the most beautiful towns in the interior of Castellón. It boasts a magnificent trio of landmarks declared World Heritage Sites: its medieval castle, the city walls, and the Santa Lucía aqueduct. Despite its medieval character, Morella has been inhabited since prehistoric times, as evidenced by the cave paintings of Morella la Vella , located six kilometers from the town and also declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO.

Morella has a motorhome area, less than 1,5 km from the town center, with free access.

Ares of the Maestrat

This town rises around a promontory, known as the Muela de Ares, crowned by the ruins of the castle, a beautiful medieval watchtower. A cave, now converted into a museum, completes the fortress with more than 40 meters of travel inside the stone. The town is fascinating for its historic center and many magical corners to discover.

There is a free motorhome area to park, although without services.

Vilafamés  

Located in the interior of Castellón, between almond and olive trees, Vilafamés has been one of the favorite destinations for many artists captivated by its beauty.

This destination will delight you with its monuments, such as the Parish Church of the Assumption with its Baroque architecture; its 14th-century castle; its archaeological sites, such as the Cova de Dalt del Tossal de la Font; and of course, its wineries, which produce wines under the Protected Geographical Indication (PGI) "Vins de les terres de Castelló".

Vilafamés has an area to spend the night with your motorhome, well leveled and lit.

chulilla

A place that you cannot miss is this corner located in the Serranía. Chulilla can indeed brag about its cultural heritage, which includes both vestiges of ancient Roman and Mudejar times, such as its castle on the summit.

But Chulilla is much more than history; it's surrounded by nature and trails perfect for hiking or cycling. Among its main attractions are the hanging bridges route, the circular route around the Peñeta Caves , a walk to Peña Judía (a swimming area on the Turia River), and the Charco Azul, an oasis in the Turia gorge.

There is a parking lot for motorhomes to spend the night, 20 m from the CV-394 road. It is asphalted, somewhat uneven and has neither lighting nor services. At 50 m from the area there is a fountain.

Anna

Anna a few years ago was an ideal place in a motorhome, now although it is still an exceptional place, with its beautiful pools of water, it is not very camper-friendly. There is a lot of motorhome prohibited, and overnight stays are prohibited in its Albufera.

Buñol

Continuing inland, you'll find Buñol, a town known primarily for its internationally renowned festival, La Tomatina , which owes its origin to an altercation that took place during a parade in 1945, in which several people ended up throwing tomatoes at each other.

Its old town, immortalized in several paintings by Sorolla; its Christian castle, based on the remains of a Muslim fortress: the neoclassical church of San Pedro and the natural environment that surrounds it, are just some of the charms of this destination.

You can park in the Natur Caravaning area with water change services and paid overnight stay, 15 minutes from Buñol.

Cullera

Cullera is a charming town of 21.000 inhabitants, located just 35 km from Valencia. This makes it a popular base for families to visit Valencia. In Valencia, it's well worth spending a day at the City of Arts and Sciences , visiting the Oceanogràfic , the Turia Gardens , and the Bioparc.

In Cullera you will have the opportunity to do all kinds of water sports, along its 15 kilometers of beach, and you will enjoy its great cultural heritage such as the Sanctuary of the Virgin of the Castle , the Tower of Santa Ana or Tower of the Queen , the Hermitage of the Virgin of Carmen , the Parish Church of Santos Juanes and of course, its castle, a beautiful military architectural complex of Muslim origin located on top of the Mountain of the Foxes.

The overnight parking for motorhomes in Cullera is easily accessible and is located 100 m from the sea. It is an earthen enclosure, closed, well leveled, with lighting and guarded by city council personnel. It has no shadows, nor does it have emptying services or water intake.

Xativa

It is one of the most beautiful cities in Spain, declared a historical-artistic site. The Castle of Xàtiva is undoubtedly its main attraction, its foundations laid upon Iberian and Roman remains. The medieval part of the castle is known as Castell Menor , and around it, Castell Major was built , giving it the form we know today, where Gothic and Islamic architecture blend.

Don't miss the Collegiate Basilica of Santa María or the Royal Hospital , and if you like nature, we recommend a visit to the La Cova Negra Natural Area.

In Xàtiva, 1 kilometer from the old town, there is a mixed and free car park that allows you to spend the night for a maximum of 24 hours.

Bocairent

In this unique enclave, a wonderful town with cobbled streets and an Arab spirit shines. The old town is beautiful and through its labyrinthine streets, its slopes and descents, you can reach, as if it were a game, any of its three hermitages.

The aqueducts and the public washhouse are just some of the preserved wonders and, just 300 meters from the town center, are Les Covetes dels Moros , 53 caves excavated in the vertical ravine of La Fos and connected to each other, which most likely, according to some interpretations, served as a granary in the Andalusian era.

Spending the night in Bocairent implies not needing services and apart from some Pk x night available, many travelers have chosen to park on Sant Jaume street, among others.

Gandia

It is one of the best-known destinations in Valencia, among other things, for having been the place where the Borjas settled, one of the most influential and ambitious families of the Renaissance and who managed to bring the Duchy of Gandia to the international front page. It is for this reason that the Palau Ducal dels Borja is the great jewel of Gandia.

We recommend a stroll through the old town to visit Plaza Escuela Pías , the Collegiate Church of Santa María , and the Borja Viewpoint . And of course, we also encourage you to visit the port, the fish market, and its beaches.

In front of the port of Gandia, in El Grau, there is a mixed car park that allows overnight stays. It does not have services.

Province of Alicante, land of festivals and tradition for your route through the Valencian Community in a motorhome

Dénia

It is the capital of the Marina Alta region and a typically Mediterranean destination that welcomes a growing number of tourists, due to its beaches and its natural and maritime attractions.

The old town is not to be missed, and a visit to the old fishing quarter of Denia, Baix la Mar , is a must . Among the maze of streets, Plaça de la Creu and Plaça Sant Antoni stand out, offering the chance to enjoy a drink in one of their many bars. Between the two squares, you can see the Playmobil sculpture commemorating the 50th anniversary of the John Paul Jones film in Denia.

You can spend the night in the free motorhome area in Benissa for a maximum of 48 hours.

Calp

An emblematic and small coastal city dominated by the majestic Peñon d'Ifach, which has become a symbol of the region. It is a limestone mountain 332 m high and has exerted a strong attraction to humans for centuries. The hiking route that ascends the rock will more than compensate you with its views, which on clear days, can reach the islands of Ibiza and Formentera.

Don't miss the salt flats (a hallmark of Calp), the Queen's Baths (ancient Roman fish farms), the 15th-century walls, and the Torreón de la Peça.

In Calp there are a couple of payment areas with services.

Altea

It's one of the most beautiful towns in Spain, and with its white sand beaches and crystal-clear waters, it seems to have emerged from an island in the Aegean Sea. Besides its old town, its gastronomy, and its beaches, you can enjoy exploring any of the five Camins d'Altea routes on foot or by bike, immersing yourself in the rural landscape of Altea.

In Altea, there are payment areas for motorhomes. It is convenient to check that they are not closed depending on when we plan to go.

Sax

We finish our tour in Sax, a town with an authentic Arabic essence at the foot of the Sierra de Cabrera.

In Sax we can visit its majestic castle fortress, the Alberto Sols House Museum (dedicated to the scientist who won the Prince of Asturias Award for Scientific Research ) and, of course, the facade of the oldest house in the city (17th century), where you can see the coat of arms of the inquisition, since the Commissioner of the Holy Office of the Inquisition, Don José Torreblanca, lived there.

And, despite the fact that nobody wants their vacation to come to an end, we say goodbye with a good taste in our mouths. Now, she touches you.

We wish you a very good route!
