The Sierra del Segura strengthens its commitment to motorhome tourism: new areas and an increasingly accessible destination

The Sierra del Segura, in the province of Albacete (Castilla-La Mancha), is consolidating its position as one of the most attractive emerging inland destinations for motorhome and campervan travel in Spain. Alongside its outstanding natural landscapes, low population density and strong rural identity, the region is now improving its appeal thanks to new infrastructure specifically designed for touring vehicles, including several new motorhome parking areas.

This initiative is not accidental. It forms part of a broader strategy focused on sustainable tourism, aimed at attracting responsible travellers who move flexibly, respect the environment, support local businesses and seek authentic experiences away from mass tourism.

New motorhome areas in the Sierra del Segura (Albacete)

As part of the “Sierra del Segura – Sustainable Tourist Destination” Sustainability Plan, four municipalities in the region will soon offer new parking areas specifically designed for motorhomes:

  • Letur

  • Férez

  • Socovos

  • Paterna del Madera

These projects are financed through European funds from Spain’s Recovery, Transformation and Resilience Plan, with the involvement of local councils and regional tourism authorities.

What do these new areas mean for motorhome travellers?

Although each area is adapted to the characteristics of its municipality, they all share the same objectives:

  • To organise parking and overnight stays, avoiding conflicts with residents or protected natural areas.

  • To provide safe and clearly designated spaces for motorhomes.

  • To encourage year-round travel, beyond the traditional high season.

  • To boost the local economy, bringing travellers closer to small shops, bars, restaurants and local producers.

For motorhome travellers, this means greater peace of mind, better route planning and a far more comfortable travel experience.

A destination made for slow travel

Beyond the new infrastructure, the Sierra del Segura stands out as a perfect region to explore at a relaxed pace, connecting small villages, scenic secondary roads and natural spaces of exceptional value.

Pure, unspoilt nature

The area includes part of the Calares del Río Mundo and La Sima Natural Park, one of the most spectacular natural areas in south-eastern Spain. The source of the Mundo River, extensive pine forests, deep ravines and well-marked trails make the region ideal for:

  • Hiking and mountain biking

  • Wildlife and bird watching

  • Nature photography

  • Quiet getaways at any time of year

Travelling by motorhome allows visitors to adapt their pace to the season, weather conditions and personal preferences, while staying close to the main points of interest.

Highlights include:

  • The old town and its fountains

  • Natural water areas and pools

  • Local cuisine and artisan products

With a nearby motorhome area, Letur becomes an essential stop on any route through the region.

Situado en una de las zonas más elevadas de la comarca, Paterna del Madera es ideal para amantes del senderismo y la montaña, con acceso directo a rutas exigentes y paisajes menos transitados.

Located in one of the highest areas of the region, Paterna del Madera is ideal for mountain and hiking enthusiasts, with direct access to demanding trails and less-visited natural landscapes.

A step forward towards sustainable and well-managed tourism

The creation of these new motorhome areas benefits not only travellers, but also the region as a whole. It helps to:

  • Reduce environmental impact

  • Prevent uncontrolled parking

  • Distribute tourist flows among several villages

  • Encourage tourism outside peak seasons

This approach fits perfectly with the camper travel philosophy, where respect for the environment and coexistence with local communities are essential.
