Route description for "Road trip Italy 2022"


"Road trip
Italy 2022"

Road trip Italy Our home port is the beautiful Nettetal in close proximity to the Netherlands. Although we have a premium hiking trail, small lakes and the typical Lower Rhine landscape but now and then we want mountains and sea. Italy is our country of longing, which can offer us all this. Come along to Italy for a bit. This time we almost always went spontaneously to campsites with a camping card and we deliberately avoided the toll roads in Bella Italia, after all, the journey should be the goal. We have attached some information and photos to our stations, you have to click on the diary view under the map. A list of costs can be found at aspaltoldies.de.

Alpencamp-Marienberg, Marienbergweg, Biberwier, Österreich

We spend our first night at the Alpencamp Marienberg (Tyrolean Zugspitz Arena),

actually the stay should last a little longer but unfortunately everything except the CP was closed, the season starts on 26.5.22


We have been there several times in summer, the location is beautiful because all activities are nearby.


For the kids there's the beaver path, really nice for adults too


Entrance a bit confusing!

The attached restaurant and shop are good.

The fried potatoes at Klammeben (mountain station) are great

Day

Camping Villaggio Tiglio

Actually, we spontaneously chose this place because the reviews were pretty good. The proximity to the lake can't be beat, but otherwise we were pretty disappointed with the CP.

After one night we drove on

Day

Camping la futa, Via Bruscoli Futa, Firenzuola, Florenz, Italien

If you still leave the toll out of the navigation system, you can get to CP la Futa via the Passo della Raticosa.

The journey takes a little longer, but the journey is the destination.

This is how you experience a scenic route with serpentines.

At the CP La Futa, the ratings on the net are not exaggerated, a great, clean place with nice operators.

Day

Mulinaccio, Scandicci, Florenz, Italien

On the way to Volterra we discovered this beautiful "lost place".


The road there looked like a dirt road.

We would do it with a large caravan or team

don't risk driving there

it is better to leave the vehicle nearby and explore on foot or by bike.

Camping Le Balze Volterra, Via di Mandringa, Volterra, Pisa, Italien

A terraced beautifully landscaped campsite within walking distance of medieval Volterra.

Nice reception and plenty of information from the lady at the reception.

You can also order paninis there.

The sanitary facilities are a bit outdated but clean.

The WLAN coverage in the lower range (80s numbers) was good.


A good (actually the best) gelateria is on Via Antonio Gramsci le'isola del Gusto, and the Museo della Tortoura is also spectacular

Blu International Camping Club

Lake Bolsena, our favorite lake with the surrounding villages and towns such as Montefiascone


This time we were in Bolsena by bike,

about 2.5 km from the site.


The CP has its own beach access, site-specific WiFi and a very good restaurant


TIP: The Norcineria in Bolsena is really good

Day

Ravenna, Italien

Italy without the sea is actually an absurdity.

We looked for a CP in Ravenna and were looking forward to spending a few days by the sea.

This project died with a visit to the square and the beach.

The normal places are so tiny that you have to ask yourself how a caravan with an awning fits in there,

Both the public and private beach were full.

The pool was chargeable and of course bathing caps required.

The staff was very nice and WiFi was good but somehow the feeling of well-being was missing.

Day

Riffian, Autonome Provinz Bozen - Südtirol, Italien

Somehow I felt the need not to spend the next few nights on a CP, so we spontaneously booked ourselves back into a hotel in the Passeier Valley.

Our tour led past a large natural stone quarry near Volargne.


By the time we got to the hotel, we had seen so many broken houses that must have had better days, it's really a pity.


Pizza and Lagrein, that's a must :)

Day

Europabrücke Schönberg im Stubaital

Over the Jaufpass we went back towards Austria

parallel to the Brenner motorway because we still drive without tolls and traffic jams.


At the gas station we bought the vignette for Austria.


A WOMO driver was told he was not allowed to drive this route, but he had to drive on the Brenner Autobahn, which was probably due to the weight.

Of course I wanted too :)


... and was megaaaa disappointed.


Photo yes, but nothing else :)
