Motorway rest area, unreliable services
E35, 6747, Chironico
Been here?
Motorway rest area between Lavorgo and Biasca offering free grey and black water disposal plus drinking water and toilets, used mainly as a quick service stop rather than a scenic destination. Thick green fencing screens motorway noise, making it reasonably quiet at night, especially after 9pm. Service availability is inconsistent: several travellers found the station closed or out of order in 2023 and again in early 2025, though others report it working fine into mid-2026. Parking is spacious with picnic tables, but trucks sometimes park outside marked bays and restrict access. One traveller reported an attempted break-in.

On this stretch of road, this is the only place where you can use the services. Everything works well; we even decided to stay overnight. The nearest campsite would not let us empty our water there, so we had to turn around and come here.
Stopped only to empty the grey and black water and fill the fresh-water tank. Everything worked! Drinking water is available for filling up.
We only used the service station, and everything worked wonderfully. Free fresh water was also available.
The place is not bad, especially quiet at night after 9 p.m. The only drawback is that trucks also park outside the spaces and restrict passage. The police, having passed by at least twice, seem to tolerate this anarchy. It would be interesting to see whether campervans would receive the same understanding if they did the same.
Service point closed, as of 22.02.2026
We arrived to empty the grey water, but unfortunately it was blocked by two large stones, so emptying was impossible. However, it is possible to sleep there.
Excellent parking area on the motorway for emptying and filling water and toilets.
Fresh water with good pressure, grey water and toilet disposal. Clean, everything works, free. Large parking spaces and many picnic tables.
Service station with fresh water and rinse water open as of today (11 June 2025).
Disposal and fresh water currently closed as of 30 March 2025. Fresh water can be taken from the fountain by the benches using a canister!
Great place for disposal and fresh water. Unfortunately, buses also use it to empty their toilets, which is spectacular but ends in quite a mess. My condolences to the next camper.
We filled up with water here. The water pressure is sensational, which cannot be taken for granted. Highly recommended.
Nice parking area with bench-and-table sets. Drinking water, kitchen tables, rubbish bins. Short parking spaces, but you can reverse the rear over the grass. Grey-water disposal available. Fine toilets, but bring your own toilet paper. Incredibly beautiful cliffs surround the area. Snow-covered mountains to the north. The clouds were still hanging very low at 11 a.m.
Excellent for camper service on the way back, considering that I live in the province of Monza and Brianza.
We have stopped here several times, emptied waste and filled up with water. It has always been perfect for us. Unfortunately, the site is currently closed!!!
Area suitable for toilets, but unfortunately the water services are currently closed!
