After exactly 200 days we are in the same spot as at the beginning of our trip. It is now spring on Lake Maggiore and everything is starting to bloom.
The parking lot at the stadium is for about 8-10 vehicles, maximum duration 3 days. No service. From the square it is only a few meters to the lake and the promenade.
Football starts at 5 p.m. and there is a lot of hustle and bustle with cars arriving and leaving and noisy children/young people.

The pitch is located right between the outdoor pool and the football pitch, on the edge of the forest. There are 3 pitches available for a maximum of 2 days stay. There is no service whatsoever.
When playing or during the outdoor pool season, some noise is to be expected.
A good stopover for us. We had a very quiet night.
From here we set off on the final leg home.

We enjoyed our winter tour so much that Simone published her diary of the trip. It was self-published and includes the route for you to follow, as well as all the parking spots and information about the individual stages. Perhaps you will find this useful for your trip.

Hallo Ihr Lieben. Wir verfolgen euch schon seit einiger Zeit. Wie wir bei euch gesehen haben habt ihr fixe Gasflaschen einbauen lassen. Wir haben seit kurzem ein neues WoMo gekauft das auch fixe Gasflaschen zum befüllen hat. Nun haben wir in einem Buch gelesen, dass in Italien die Befüllung verboten ist. Ihr habt ja in Italien überwintert. Wie habt ihr die festen Gasflaschen in Italien neu befüllt? Vielen Dank für eures Feedback. Wir verfolgen euch weiterhin, Ihr macht das ja sooo gut.
Liebe Grüsse Marina & Alois
Hallo ihr vier🙋♂️
toll euch auch hier zu finden, denn euren Youtube Kanal verfolgen wir bereits. Erst einmal wünschen wir ruch ein gesundes neues Jahr mit vielen weiteren tollen und unfallfreien Reisen.
Mein Tipp als Ausflugsziel Torre del Orso hatte ich Euch ja bereits in Youtube kommentiert.
Bilder dazu findet ihr hier in unserer Route.
Wir freuen uns sehr darauf eure weitere Reise zu verfolgen, denn auch wir möchten mal Richtung Kalabrien und Sizillien.
Liebe Grüße Fränze und Daniel
Hallo Fränze, schön, dass ihr unserer Route auch hier folgt. (Leider sind wir in der Bearbeitung der Kommentare nicht so zeitnah, entschuldige).
Viele Grüße, Simone und Michael
Guten Morgen und Frohe Weihnachten nach Bella Italia!
Super das ihr auf dieser Plattform eure Touren festhaltet. Freue mich schon darauf zumindest Teilweise euren Spuren zu folgen. Genießt die Zeit und kommt gut ins neue Jahr.
Liebe Grüße aus dem verregneten Süddeutschland.
Andreas
Hallo Andreas,
entschuldige die späte Antwort hier auf der Plattform. Wir wünschen dir auch ein gutes neues Jahr und viele schöne Reisen.
Liebe Grüße Simone und Michael
Hallo Beckers
Wir verfolgen euch schon einige Zeit mit grosser Begeisterung auf eurem YouTube Kanal. Nun haben wir euch auf FREEONTOUR entdeckt. Ihr macht das so gut. Wir werden eure Tour nachreisen. Wir haben auch ein kleines Hündchen.
Findet ihr eure Unterkünfte in Freeontour oder auch anderweitig?
Weiterhin eine gute Reise. Wir sind gespannt wie es bei euch weiter geht.
Alois und Marina
Hallo ihr beiden,
das ist aber schön zu lesen. Es freut uns sehr, dass euch unsere Reise inspiriert. Unsere Unterkünfte finden wir entweder über Empfehlungen von Campernachbarn auf den Plätzen, bei Google Maps oder tatsächlich auch von anderen youtube Kanälen.
Euch ebenfalls eine gute Reise und viele Grüße aus Gallipoli.
Simone und Michael
Italien gibt es schöne Plätze, aber wazum schreiben Sie nich was es Pro: Tag kostet ???????????
deswegen fahren wir immer nach Spanien. P. Patt
Die Preise sind im Text vermerkt?!
Als erfahrene, oder sollte ich bei zusammengerechnet 18 Monate Italien in 6 Jahren sagen, recht erfahrene Italocamper, muss ich euch bestätigen, dass ihr eine tolle Tour und Route gefunden habt. Es gibt ein paar Insidertipps, die ich euch nicht vorenthalten möchte. Zumal ich eure Tour genauso mehrfach und in Teilen gereist bin und wieder reisen würde.
1. Ihr habt den perfekten Platz in der Nähe des zauberhaften Gallipoli gewählt.
2. In Oranto gibt es einen Agricampeggio auf einem Tufffelsen im Olivenhain, Stadt fußläufig nah, antiker Bauernhof mit Restaurant und gutem Essen aus eigener Herstellung und einem Ippogeo, wofür man den Schlüssel bekommt um es anzusehen. Beeindruckend!
3. In Matera stehen wir immer gerne am Infozentrum in der Murge gegenüber. Paolo macht den Shuttleservice in die Stadt, wenn man nicht durch die Schlucht laufen will. Der abendliche Anblick der Sassi ist unbezahlbar.
4. Gradara ist sehr empfehlenswert und gar nicht so überlaufen. Eine sehr komfortable, freundliche und liebenwürdige Alternative ist die Tenuta Santini oberhalb von Riccione. Eine Verkostung lohnt sich in jedem Fall.
5. Die Kathedrale von Trani ist umwerfend. Man darf zwischen Stauferkastell und Kathedrale auf dem P stehen. Abends ein Traum! Der Weg dahin ist für Womos trikki. Man muss ca. 80m gegen die Einbahnstraße fahren, was in Womo Ausnahmefällen erlaubt ist und keine Gefahr birgt. Der eigentliche Weg ist zu schmal und mit hohem Bordstein gesäumt. Reichlich Platz vorhanden.
Ich wünsche euch eine schöne Advents- und Weihnachtszeit in Süditalien. In Apulien seid ihr schon mal in meiner Lieblingsecke.
Brigitta
Hallo Brigitta,
vielen Dank für den ausführlichen Kommentar. Wir sind mit dem Platz in Gallipoli sehr zufrieden und bereits seit 5 Wochen hier. Danach fahren wir weiter Richtung Kalabrien, evtl. auch Sizilien und dann die Westküste wieder hoch.
Otranto, Matera und Gradara fanden wir ebenfalls sehr zauberhaft.
Dir auch eine schöne Weihnachtszeit und einen guten Start in ein neues, unfallfreies Jahr.
Simone
PS, kennst du unseren youtube Kanal? Dort zeigen wir unsere Erlebnisse. Vielleicht interessiert dich das auch. Du findest uns unter unterwegsmitdenbeckers
Hallo ihr Beiden (ach nein, ihr seid ja 4), ich folge euch bereits auf YouTube und habe euch heute hier gefunden - sehr schön. Die bisherige Tour gefällt mir sehr gut und ich bin gespannt, wie es weiter geht. Weiterhin gute und unfallfreie Fahrt und eine schöne Adventszeit.
Marlies
Vielen lieben Dank Marlies. Das freut uns sehr, dass du mit uns unterwegs bist. 🍀
