Cave parking, narrow approach
2 Localita Trimpello, 55020, Tuscany
Been here?
This small, generally quiet and fairly level parking area at the Grotta del Vento is excellent for visiting the caves and overnight stops. It is free from 7-9pm, while daytime parking is paid, and there are no camper services. The approach is narrow and winding, with the last 6 km narrow and the last 2 very narrow; vehicles longer than 11.6 m are prohibited.

The climb is tiring, not difficult in itself, but if vehicles meet, it becomes very difficult. Still, it is worth it.Translating
Paid parking, narrow or even very narrow access over the last few kilometres, but no particular problems. We went there with two 7.5-metre motorhomes.Translating
Quiet and peaceful parking area at Gruta del Viento. Fairly level and with plenty of space. It may be full in high season, but it is very pleasant in winter. The winding road is fine, but you need to be careful if you have a large caravan, especially a high-profile one. Overall, it is manageable.Translating
Level parking. Quiet and surrounded by nature. Waste bins. Entrance to the cave nearby. Narrow, winding road for dozens of kilometres! Maximum for motorhomes up to 6 metres.Translating
A small parking area at the entrance to the caves. There was supposedly a motorhome rate, but that option did not work on the payment machine, so we paid the regular car rate. The road up is narrow and steep in places but manageable. We drove a motorhome 7.30 m long, 2.30 m wide and 3.20 m high. No facilities other than waste containers.Translating
We spent a very peaceful night. Since it is a car park, there are no services, but the view and the peace are truly worthwhile.Translating
This is a car park, not a motorhome area (hence the two stars), with level, partly shaded asphalt and a daytime fee (the free area belongs to the restaurant). The access road is narrow but not impossible; slim vehicles such as vans or semi-integrated motorhomes up to 2.3 metres wide are fine. There are passing places on the road, but not enough for a Morelo or large motorhome.Translating
Great place to visit! Just a few parking spaces so better be early or late. Follow the signs from Gallicano, this way we made it with a mobile home, 7m long, 2,85m high. Be aware, you need to know your car and how to drive it! In between there are narrow and steep parts, if you have oncoming traffic, it will challenge you and the other one as well. Few chances to turn around until the top.
