THE DOLOMITES BY CAMPERVAN | Must-see hikes, drives and park-ups in Italy

In this video, we'll take you on an epic Italian road-trip as we journey to one of the most beautiful mountain ranges in Europe - the Dolomites.
It's the perfect place to road-trip in a campervan or motorhome, with each scenic switchback road leading to another beautiful place to park your van and call home for a while, with nature on your doorstep and plenty of trails ready to be explored
If you're new round here we're Jack and Jo, that's our scruffy hitchhiker Frank, and this is our home on wheels Big P, which is taking us to wild places and wild adventures all over the UK and Europe
Join us for a road-trip through the mountains, as we experience the highs and some lows of VanLife in the Dolomites.

    Can you park your camper van and sleep anywhere in the dolomites area? do you need to pay or is it free?

    Bit of a mixture! Download Park4Night app and you'll find a few spots. Quite alot of ski-centre car parks stay open and let you stay the night.

    Hey! You will probably be OK - we *just* fitted when being towed down the mountain. I think it's called Passo Falzarego, which leads to Arabba from near to the Cinque Torri car park. There is a less direct and less winding way via main roads I think (which in hindsight we should have taken! 😂)
