Excellent resting spot at a high altitude behind the hotel, which has been closed for years; quiet, cool, and with a sky full of stars! You can flush your toilet into a tank and use the bathrooms installed in a module with sinks and toilets. Cost: €20 per night when there are valets a few hundred meters before the parking lot; we didn't pay anything because no one was collecting.
Free parking with no services. There's a small fountain hidden in the street vendors' parking lot. On busy weekends, it's best to arrive in the evening to secure a spot.
12€ for 24h at the top where the cable car arrives. They have installed a module with sinks (no crockery though) and bathrooms (no showers).

Extra top location, ideal for beautiful walks on the Gran Sasso, to admire the view or simply to sleep at 2150 meters above sea level! Flat rest point, on gravel, at the rear of the Campo Imperatore hotel. No service except a fountain to load fresh water with some effort and a bin, recently put there, to unload the black ones. The only precaution: consult the weather forecast carefully, including wind.
Stopped at the beginning of October 2020. It is possible to park both in the Campo Imperatore square and in the square behind the old hotel, now closed. The drinking fountain behind the church was not functioning. There are no services. There is only the hostel with a bar and the chairlift which was still closed. The view is gorgeous. At night some cows arrive with their cowbells but despite the sound of the same one sleeps well. At the beginning of October, the night was 4 ° C.

Beautiful area, you can avoid going up to the square and stop at different points along the road and then walk endlessly ... with beautiful views everywhere.
