The Camper’s take
Updated June 2026
Free parking along Canal du Midi in Castelnaudary, just minutes from town centre. Height limit 2 m. Grassy shaded area with picnic tables and rubbish bins. Narrow access and unmarked spaces make it tight for larger motorhomes. Atmosphere variable: quiet at night off-season, but noisy with evening and early morning traffic from the adjacent road. Good base for exploring town and canal walks.
