We spent one night there. It was not very quiet. Freight trains run all night, and some are very loud. Still, it is nice that free places like this still exist. We saw no height restrictions at the entrance. It is also usable by larger motorhomes.Translating
Thanks to the municipality. Perhaps there should be a sign explaining the parking arrangement. With the way you park today, only five can fit—and we were the last ones.Translating
A cute little playground is right next door, and there is a small meadow for dogs. A visit to Linn Castle, reachable on foot in about 10 minutes, is highly recommended. Admission is free for under-18s; adults pay €8 for the castle museum and hunting lodge. Height restriction up to 3.20 m; more suitable for short motorhomes up to 6 m. Almost continuous road noise. Overall clean, with four small bins.Translating
Excellent site for the night. Background noise soon fades and there were no problems with cars. Didn’t explore but there is a trattoria nearby and not much else. Rubbish bins are the only facility available.
Our 2nd time here. Trams are back up & running & they can be quite noisy, along with the trains. Suggest earplugs. Disappointed to see cars coming in to squeeze in & park up alongside motorhomes, supposed to be MH parking only. Car drivers are quick to moan if we take their spaces. Anyway, good place to stop whilst visiting brother-in-law who lives here. Thanks for supplying this free facility.
Free parking for up to eight medium-sized motorhomes, somewhat noisy because of the tram, but otherwise undisturbed. Easy tram ride to and from the city and to a concert at the Kufa. No disposal or water facilities, only bins.Translating
Watch out: when leaving, I noticed cockroaches sitting in every gap and crevice of my leveling ramps. Perhaps because the rubbish bins there were constantly full, or something. I have been traveling for three years and have never experienced anything like it. Traffic quietened down at night and I slept very well. Unfortunately, there are no water or waste facilities, only a few bins.Translating
Nice spot. Quiet nights. Small trashcans available. Beautiful walking path by the castle. Aldi supermarket close by and also McDonalds with WC. 48 hours free parking.
Quiet night. You can hear the trains and cars, but not too much, and you can rest peacefully. There are small rubbish bins around. A good place for one night.Translating
Heavy traffic, even at night—trains, trams and cars. Still, it is easy to take a beautiful walk to the castle.Translating
I had a quiet night without disturbances. At the weekend the road was quiet, with no commuter traffic. A beautiful dog-walking route around the castle.Translating
Well located for visiting the castle and the old town of Linn, with its small shops and narrow streets. Otherwise there are roads, trams and freight trains—too noisy for me to sleep there. Small bins on site.Translating
You definitely would not want to sleep here. Far too noisy. The trams run regularly and squeal as they brake at this spot. There is currently also construction at the bridge, so it is extremely noisy. But it is a great place to park for a few hours to visit, for example, the castle and the park.Translating
One of the few free places you will find in the area. There are few spaces, so if it becomes popular it will fill up easily. If parked well, two campers can fit in each gap, though probably only one motorhome. There is freight-train noise during the night too, but it is bearable. There are litter bins, but no containers.Translating
Arrived at 10 p.m. and there was still a space available. It is a large, quiet parking area. If you have a trailer, reversing in makes it easier to get out afterward. Thanks to the municipality.Translating
Great night. Three other campers here. No work on the bridge and the trams were minimal. Highly recommended.Translating
We stayed here for one night. At the moment, a bridge is being replaced at the intersection and work continues all night. It was noisy. Otherwise, the site does what it should. You can also dispose of rubbish. The bays are suitable for large vehicles. You park under trees, with no satellite reception and currently quite a lot of debris from the trees. DVB-T reception is possible. Visit Linn Castle!Translating
