From the town, you can do different routes as a family, the best known is the one that leaves from Caín.

In other words, this is a route that runs through the surrounding forest and thus allows you to explore the neighboring towns and enjoy the hórreos. In addition, there is a gymkhana to find out who Don Pelayo was and delve into the most hidden places in town. Enjoy your trips in a motorhome!

The old quarter of the town, made of stone and with steep alleys, is beautiful. In it, is the Museo dels Raiers where the profession of Raiero is explained.

Andenes is the northernmost point of the Lofoten Islands (Norway). It is the first town you find when you arrive by ferry from Senja Island. It is a perfect place to spot orcas and whales. We went to see orcas with the company Whale2Sea. The experience lasted about two hours and we were able to admire the orcas very close to us. For us, it was unforgettable. Then, going up to the beautiful lighthouse of Andenes is also something beautiful. You can park in different places in the center of town without any problem.
Just 5 km south of Andenes, taking the main road, is the town of Bleik. We park and spend the night at their campsite, since there are no other options. One minute from the campsite is one of the most beautiful beaches we have seen. A huge beach, surrounded by some mountains, and in the middle of August, we were alone. In other words, great for one of your motorhome trips!

16. Calasparra, rice, a rock sanctuary and much more
Today we are going to Calasparra, which is known for its rice paddies, so we can start with a walk through the rice fields and then go eat it in any of the restaurants in town. That plan never fails! Probably the best known place in Calasparra is the Sanctuary of the Virgen de la Esperanza. It is spectacular, with the hermitage in the grotto, the river and the legend of the virgin "the little one". They allow you to go up to the chapel of the Virgin and the visit is free, with ample parking, a picnic area and bathrooms. It is about 6 km. Township.
Another of the most fascinating places is the Cueva del Puerto, equipped with walkways and accompanied by a guide, you could visit a part of this great cave (it has up to 9 km of galleries). Attention to temporary closures. And do not forget to visit the shelter of the well or cave of the puppets (of cave art), or drop by the viewpoint of the black head: it has a volcanic outcrop of lamproites, which reminded me of the "calzada de the giants” of Ireland.
In summary, in Calasparra there is everything: rice fields, caves, sanctuaries, river... It's a great destination! There is no AC area in it, but Tourism told us that there was no problem parking and spending the night. Then they recommended the area of the athletics tracks, because it is quiet and with some services nearby. But if you want an area, you can always go to Archena, which is free, is about 40 minutes away and has a river beach right next to it. Ideal for one of your motorhome trips!

18. Capafons and the Gralles Cave
Capafons is a small town located in the mountains of Prades, in Tarragona. Its name comes from the number of fountains that the place has (53) although only one has water all year round: the Fuente de la Llúdriga. At the beginning of the town there is a large open space that serves as a parking lot. From here you can start a lot of routes, but we suggest you go afterwards to the Cueva de les Gralles passing by Les Tosques (small waterfalls that form various pools where you can bathe) and by the Fuente de la Llúdriga (they say it is the source of the river Brugent).
Once in the Cave, it seems to you that it is a Romanesque arch of some church portal, majestic and enormous (about 60 meters high). If it has rained, you will be able to see how a small waterfall descends. Just before entering the town there is an open space (41.2967267, 1.0257357) where there are no problems to park and/or spend the night. There are no services but it is a very quiet area. Highly recommended for one of your motorhome trips!

20. Todtnau fun for children and adults
It is a small town in the black forest in Germany with about 5.000 inhabitants. Perhaps he is well known to the Germans, I don't know, but I realize that no Spaniard mentions him on their routes when he organizes the trip to the Black Forest. The town itself is small but nice to walk around. Nearby the best-known activity is the Todtnau waterfalls but we always forget its most fun part, for example for both children and adults, the Rodelbahn Coaster, which is also the largest in all of Germany. It is about going up in chairlifts although you can also walk up to the top of the mountain where the adrenaline begins.
You will get on a sled which you can control the speed, faster or slower, and you will go down some rails that wind through the mountain. A real pass. In addition, for lovers of mountain biking, you can rent bikes where they will take you up the chairlifts and you will take care of the best, descending with impressive views. It has a paid sleeping area with all services for €10 24h and €3 if you want electricity.

Although if you are not one to pay in areas, a few kilometers down the mountain, in the next two towns there are totally free AC areas. Also take note of Zell im Wiesental and Schweigmatt, you will be very well here. 47.8323, 7.9557 (lat, lng) N 47° 49′ 56″ E 7° 57′ 20″ (lat lng).

24. Castellar hippy castle
In the province of Cádiz, in the Los Alcornocales Natural Park, there is a small town located inside a medieval castle, called Castellar Viejo or Castillo de Castellar, which would have become a dilapidated place were it not for a chippie community, especially artists and artisans, which settled there and keeps it alive. Today it is one of the few inhabited fortresses in Europe. Currently, it has about 150 inhabitants that give the place a very bohemian air.
Strolling through its narrow streets, for example, is quite an experience, especially if you do it early in the morning when there are no visitors yet. The visit to this unique enclave is complemented by a wonderful hiking route of about 5,5 km. suitable for the whole family and thus allows you to observe the only colony that exists in Europe of monarch butterflies. Quite a spectacle to see these peculiar little bugs flutter. The Town of Castellar de la Frontera has a motorhome area: https://goo.gl/maps/fN3BXCzJKfcefwgP9

25. Cycling between waters and above the treetops!
We suggest you ride a bike between the waters and above the trees!
On a route through Flanders, in Belgium, we find places as unusual as these cycle paths in the middle of beautiful natural landscapes.
Take note:
1º set aside a whole day to get to know Bokrijk and dedicate at least one morning or afternoon to doing a bike route through the natural park.
But above all, you must cycle or walk through the Fietsen Door of Bomen de Bokrijk, a unique place, where you will cross a lake through the middle of the water, being able to caress the ducks and swans as you go (if they don't bite you, some of them had bad milk hehehe).
The rest of the day is spent wandering the publicly accessible open-air farm on a 2km marked path, or the botanical garden or open-air museum of Belgian folklore.
2º In Bosland you will find the circuit where you can pedal at the height of the trees of this immense forest. There are more than 400 km of bicycle routes in this forest, well signposted and with paved lanes through a dense forest of tall trees.
Where to park and spend the night in a motorhome: Both Bosland and Bokrijk have parking lots at their entrance where motorhomes and campers can park and spend the night, always without camping (remove elements from the perimeter of the vehicle).
You can see all the details of our route through Flanders and these unusual places in our post about Belgium in a motorhome for 16 essentials.
