Frequently asked questions

Bulgaria: what applies to sleeping in a motorhome?+

There is no nationwide ban on sleeping in your vehicle, but driving, stopping and parking on beaches and dunes is entirely prohibited. Pitching a tent or parking a camper or caravan in zones "A" and "B" on someone else's undeveloped plot outside the designated sites costs 500–1,000 leva (roughly 260–510 euros), and 1,000–3,000 leva on beaches (Arts. 10a and 17b ZUCHK).

Bulgaria: does the national rule apply everywhere?+

Place me applies it to all car parks and community spots in the country; we have not yet verified any regional rules. Signs on site and municipal by-laws always take precedence.

Bulgaria: where do I find places for the night?+

On the Place me map: official stopovers and campsites are green; car parks and community spots get the national rule. The “Legal” filter hides red spots.

The information comes from OpenStreetMap and from campers. Check signs and bans on site – the light is guidance, not legal advice. Caraplace accepts no liability for accuracy or currency; you stay at your own risk.

Only legal places on the map

The “Legal” filter shows only places with a green or amber light – official stopovers, campsites, farms and car parks in regions that allow or tolerate overnight stays.
