Parking at SJPP

I would like to do the camino frances. My plan is to travel to SJPP in my motorhome, park it locally and do the camino on foot. This would mean leaving the motorhome unattended for potentially 5 weeks. I take all the security measures I can with the actual vehical. I am looking for any reccomendations for anywhere I can park it safely ( secure site, trusted family, anything really considered). Don't know when trip will be undertaken as I've fractured a spinal bone. So thought I'd occupy my time with the planning. Many thanks Peter
 
Ideal pocket guides for during & after your Camino. Each weighs only 1.4 oz (40g)!
The 2024 Camino guides will be coming out little by little. Here is a collection of the ones that are out so far.
Send a private conversation to MonaSP. She is a manager at the Pilgrim Office at SJPdP. If anyone knows about long term parking for an RV, she likely will.

IIRC there is long term parking available at SJPdP. You are not the first person to have this need.

Hope this helps.

Another option to those above may be to store it at a Campsite somewhere near Bayonne or Cambo les Bains (both a short hop by train to SJPdP). If you end up walking during the camping season, many caravans and motorhomes will have vacated their seasonal storage, so there ought to be a deal to be done.
 
Ideal sleeping bag liner whether we want to add a thermal plus to our bag, or if we want to use it alone to sleep in shelters or hostels. Thanks to its mummy shape, it adapts perfectly to our body.

Private Parking At Garage Donibane​

During our last few visits to St Jean Pied de Port we parked at Garage Donibane. We paid 3 euros a day but for a 7 day minimum period. It gave us peace of mind that we were not parking illegally and we had a certain level of security. You do need to call ahead to reserve.
