"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.

Travelogue

Day 1
41334 Nettetal, Deutschland

Zugspitzblick

From home we always drive over the Tiroler Fernpass.

Make sure to stop at the Zugspitzblick (Biberwier 162 / Austria) great view


THINKING ABOUT THE VIGNETTE !


Alpencamp-Marienberg, Marienbergweg, Biberwier, Österreich
Marienbergweg 15, 6633 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!

1 night stay


Day 2
Passeiertal

From Biberwier (from here toll out) we went into the Passeier Valley over the Jaufpass

to CP Untersaltaushof


The Jaufenpass is actually a must, a great panorama.

As far as I know, teams are forbidden.

You will find a corresponding link on the website

We with the V class had no problems,


Without a toll you drive on this route under the Brenner motorway, or parallel, scenic route.


Camping Passeier Meran
Pseirerstr. 10, 39010, Saltaus - St. Martin, Italy

The site is right next to the Hirzer cable car, the cycle path to Meran is a stone's throw away.

A swimming pool is also available.

The attached restaurant and shop are good.


You can get tickets for the middle and mountain station at the CP


The fried potatoes at Klammeben (mountain station) are great

2 nights




Day 3
Camping Passeier bei Meran, Pseirerstraße, Saltaus, Autonome Provinz Bozen - Südtirol, Italien
Pseirerstraße, 10, 39010 Saltaus, Autonome Provinz Bozen - Südtirol, Italien

Day 4
Camping Villaggio Tiglio
Via Punta Grò 6, 25019, Lugana di Sirmione (Bs), Italy

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 5
Camping la futa, Via Bruscoli Futa, Firenzuola, Florenz, Italien
Via Bruscoli Futa, 889h, 50033 Firenzuola FI, 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.


1 night stay



Day 6
Mulinaccio, Scandicci, Florenz, Italien
50018 Scandicci, Metropolitan City of Florence, 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
Via di Mandringa, 15, 56048 Volterra PI, 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


2 nights


Day 7
Camping Le Balze Volterra, Via di Mandringa, Volterra, Pisa, Italien
Via di Mandringa, 15, 56048 Volterra PI, Italien

Day 8
Mill Val d'Orcia

Actually, we wanted to see how pasta is made, but we only found a beautiful agriturismo, maybe we'll book there for one night.


The journey continued to Lago di Bolsena



Blu International Camping Club
via Cassia, 01023, Bolsena, Italy

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


2 nights


Day 9
Blu International Camping, Via Cassia Km 111,650, Loc. Pietre Lanciate, Bolsena, Viterbo, Italien
Via Cassia Km 111,650, 01023 Loc. Pietre Lanciate, Bolsena VT, Italien

Actually we wanted to go further south and then everything turned out completely differently.........


but read for yourself


Software Problem müssen wir schon nach Hause?

Suddenly the complete command system in the Bruno failed.

The nearest Mercedes workshop was a few kilometers away in Viterbo.

I don't know if they couldn't or didn't want to help us, at least they said they didn't have any free capacity.

The Mercedes hotline was very friendly and a nice person gave us instructions on the phone on how to reset the system. Unfortunately didn't work.

Another technician called us back and gave us the advice to continue driving with the cell phone sat nav and to present the car in Germany.

We could have continued like this, but it's not nice if the system can't be switched off and drives up and down at full volume every 10 seconds.

This is annoying to no end.

We didn't even need to inform ADAC because the car was roadworthy.

No sooner said than done, we have decided to head towards home.

We drove via Narni and Termi to at least take the Monte Sibillini National Park with us on the tour.

More out of necessity, we looked for and found a campsite nearby.


Agriturismo Campeggio Il Collaccio, Preci, Perugia, Italien
Località Collaccio, 06047 Preci PG, Italien

Das Beste was uns passieren konnte

This place is sheer madness something you have to have experienced

super clean

Friendly, helpful staff everywhere

Great restaurant and not to forget the fantastic location, embedded in the mountains with an infinity pool that offers an amazing view.

The journey is a bit adventurous, but if you're in the corner, make a stop, it's worth it.



Day 10
Agriturismo Campeggio Il Collaccio, Preci, Perugia, Italien
Località Collaccio, 06047 Preci PG, Italien

Fehler gefunden?

It was time to clean up the vehicle. We kept our laundry in two narrow plastic boxes on the footboard between the sliding door and the mattress, every centimeter was actually used, we've always had it that way.

We cleared everything out completely, I had a strange feeling and asked my husband to start the vehicle, lo and behold, the light at the front for the sliding door stopped flashing. Was "that" maybe related to the Comand system, actually that wasn't possible because the display didn't show an open door.

The command system started up normally again. What luck, there was probably so much pressure on the sliding door that caused the error.

Car admitted differently, runs 👍 INCREDIBLE,

it would have been very expensive. Thanks workshop that you didn't have time :)


Day 11
Agriturismo Campeggio Il Collaccio, Preci, Perugia, Italien
Località Collaccio, 06047 Preci PG, Italien

3 nights because it was so nice :)


Day 12
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.


1 night stay


Day 13
Riffian, Autonome Provinz Bozen - Südtirol, Italien
39010 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 14
Europabrücke Schönberg im Stubaital
89150 Laichingen, Deutschland

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.


Blaubeuren, Deutschland ( Blautopf )
89143 Blaubeuren, Deutschland

Do you know the Blautopf in Blaubeuren?


If you see the pictures on Instagram & Co you want to go there.

Of course I wanted too :)


... and was megaaaa disappointed.


Photo yes, but nothing else :)


Laichingen, Deutschland
89150 Laichingen, Deutschland

Our last night before everyday life has us again.


Nettetal, Deutschland
41334 Nettetal, Deutschland

Bruno is looking forward to a wash :)

Day 2
Passeiertal

Von Biberwier (ab hier  Maut raus) ging`s ins Passeiertal über den Jaufenpass 

zum CP Untersaltaushof


Der Jaufenpass ist eigentlich Pflicht, ein tolles Panorama.

Soviel mir bekannt ist sind Gespanne verboten.

Einen entsprechenden Link findet ihr auf der Webseite

Wir mit der V Klasse hatten keine Probleme, 


Ohne Maut fahrt ihr auf dieser Strecke unter der Brennerautobahn, bzw.parallel, landschaftlich schöne Strecke.

Software Problem müssen wir schon nach Hause?

Von jetzt auf gleich fiel das komplette Comand System im Bruno aus.

Die nächste Fachwerkstatt von Mercedes befand sich ein paar Kilometer weiter in Viterbo.

Ich weiß nicht ob man uns nicht helfen konnte oder wollte, jedenfalls hieß es das man keine Kapazitäten frei hätte. 

Die Hotline von Mercedes war sehr freundlich und ein netter Mensch gab uns am Telefon die Anweisung wie man das System resetet. Funktionierte leider nicht.

Ein anderer Techniker rief uns zurück und gab uns den Rat mit dem Handy Navi weiter zu fahren und in Deutschland mit dem Wagen vorstellig zu werden.

Wir hätten auch so weiterfahren können ist aber nicht schön wenn sich das System nicht abschalten lässt und alle 1o Sekunden mit voller Lautstärke rauf und runter fährt. 

Das nervt ohne Ende.

ADAC brauchten wir erst gar nicht informieren weil das Auto ja fahrtüchtig war.

Gesagt getan wir haben uns entschieden in Richtung Heimat zu fahren.

Wir sind über Narni und Termi gefahren um wenigstens den Nationalpark Monte Sibillini auf der Tour mitzunehmen.

Mehr aus der Not heraus haben wir in der Nähe einen Campingplatz gesucht und gefunden.

Das Beste was uns passieren konnte

Dieser Platz ist der helle Wahnsinn so etwas muss man erlebt haben

Supersauber

Überall freundliche, hilfsbereite Mitarbeiter

Tolles Restaurant  und nicht zu vergessen die phantastische Lage, eingebettet in den Bergen mit einem Infinitypool der eine Wahnsinnsaussicht bietet.

Die Anfahrt ist zwar etwas abenteuerlich aber wenn ihr mal in der Ecke seid legt einen Stopp ein es lohnt sich.

Fehler gefunden?

Es wurde Zeit das Fahrzeug mal aufzuräumen. Die Wäsche hatten wir in zwei schmalen Plastikboxen auf dem Trittbrett zwischen Schiebetür und Matratze, jeder Zentimeter war eigentlich genutzt das haben wir immer schon so.

Wir räumten komplett aus, ich hatte ein komisches Gefühl und bat meinen Mann doch mal das Fahrzeug zu starten siehe da, das Lämpchen vorne für die Schiebetür hörte auf zu blinken. Hing "das" vielleicht mit dem Comand System zusammen, eigentlich war das nicht möglich da im Display keine offene Tür angezeigt wurde. 

Das Comand System startete wieder ganz normal hoch. Was für ein Glück, wahrscheinlich lag soviel Druck auf der Schiebetür das den Fehler verursachte.

Auto anders eingeräumt, läuft👍 UNGLAUBLICH,

es wäre bestimmt sehr teuer geworden. Danke Werkstatt das ihr keine Zeit hattet :)
