The area was completely abandoned, with garbage everywhere and occupied by gypsies. We moved to a parking lot a little further down.

We were there in April 2024, and we were the only Italians, along with other German and Austrian campers. The area is free and has a drinking water fountain, which we saw many residents using. The area is free and fairly quiet; the only flaw is the lack of trash cans: there's only one. On this trip, we noticed that in Sicily, too, recycling is practiced both in and outside the campgrounds, so if the municipality of Caltagirone were to provide this, it would prevent the presence of bags around the trash can.
