Euro tour advice
« on: 05 April 2012, 10:56:10 am »
 
Taking the old girl for another lap around Europe this September "That's the Fazer not the wife". Any one know any nice campsites,roads or things to see/do on the route. I have picked out a few of the obvious touristy things to do in the main City's. The route is in the planning stage and can be modified if there is more interesting stuff but i want to end up in Rome and Split at some stage.

Keep your spare change in an outside pocket for all those tolls you're going to have to go through :)

Le Mans 24 hours is at the beginning of Sept. I'm going to that. Guest houses are around 40 euros in the nearby town. Potentially around 30 hours of non-stop boozing is in order at endurance races with bands, booze, funfair, hogroasts, booze, stunt riders, booze etc, a great event.
 Worth going.

 All as Sadlonleygit says
We went down to Croatia last year through Austria to Zell am See then over this--- http://www.grossglockner.at/en/  ------into Slovenia to lake  Bled, but then take a detour  to Lake Bohinj  abut 20miles from Bled and not as busy .
Then on down past Senj this road is the dogs ( link to a vid my wife made on way back)

Good info guys, the trip will last around two weeks. I have done the Swiss/Austrian alps a few times so thought i would try this route.
