Been here?
A free parking area beside the information point for visiting Els Gorgs, with easy access and the town 5 minutes away. Recent information says access to the gorges costs 6€/person and requires an online reservation. The area is next to a busy road and has been used for overnight stays, although a rural guard previously asked campers to leave around 8h.

Free parking; only access to the gorges costs €6 per person. Online reservation.Translating
It costs €6 during the day in high season. I am not sure whether overnight stays are allowed in the high season, since this is the entrance to a protected area.Translating
We spent the night here. We did not know it was paid parking during the day, but apparently it is free at night. Relatively quiet despite a busy road nearby. Warning: the rural police came early in the morning, around 8 a.m., to tell us it was forbidden. I think it is possible to receive a heavy fine because it is supposedly a nature reserve.Translating
It is okay, although it would be better at the end of the village. They make you pay €5 to see the waterfalls, even though they are very poorly maintained.Translating
The parking area is very good, but it is next to the cemetery. A little farther down, behind the gas station, there is a large, flat parking area where you can sleep very well.Translating
Perfect spot outside the season; there is usually almost nobody here and you do not have to pay the €5. Perfect place to see the pools of El Molí de Murris or Can Poeti.Translating
Free parking outside the season. We spent a very peaceful night despite being right beside the road. There are no facilities, but there are rubbish and recycling bins. Perfect for taking various routes to the gorges.Translating
We spent a very peaceful night. It is spacious and level.Translating
Excellent parking area for exploring the waterfalls. We stayed here for one night. No shade. It is quiet at night because the road is not heavily trafficked. Bins are nearby.Translating
A quiet, free place without services. Access to the gorges requires advance reservation and visitor numbers are limited. Highly recommended.Translating
Initially we though the place was a little exposed (no shade) and right by the road (load) but as they are really strict with parking in the area (lots of visitors to the gorges) we decided to stay and ended up sleeping quite alright. The beauty of the gorges definitely made up for everything else.
A place surrounded by nature, with the gorges accessible on foot via paved roads and dirt paths. The Carrilet greenway for bicycles (Olot–Girona) is nearby. Les Planes d'Hostoles is a small village, but it has several restaurants and at least one supermarket.Translating
Good spot, next to the road but quiet at night. Several hiking trails start here for the waterfalls and the high point of El Far. The greenway is also nearby. Not completely flat, but manageable. Very nice!Translating
Excellent, quiet and free parking without services, but well located for visiting the waterfalls. I recommend it without hesitation.Translating
Great parking area for visiting the waterfalls. Very quiet night.Translating
Excellent! Quiet and safe. We spent the night with other campers.Translating
Behind the information hut there is a utility box with a hose. Very quiet place to sleep, even though the road is next to it.Translating
