2013 camping costs and best routes in Northern Europe for cyclist?Interest forums / On Your Bike | ||
Hello all and sorry to ask a question that must certainly have been answered somewhere here already; I looked and just can't find it! What are the average camping costs? Wild-camping options east of France? If caught in too much rain, is there a warm-showers equivalent in Europe? I host here. I've cycled extensively in Europe, especially in France, with about 50/50 wild and paid camping. Back in the late 90s/early 2000's it was cheap and wonderful in France and more expensive for the little bit I did in Holland, so current cost/info would be much appreciated. Also any advice on car-minimal and most historically beautiful route appreciated. I know NE France can be rather unsightly so am prepared for that, but I know little about the route east of that. Thanks Edited by: solarisglobal | ||

An answer to my own question, having done the trip: most campgrounds in N Europe are closing any around sept 15, give or take 2 weeks on either end. Count on 5-12 euros more or less for cyclist. Respectful wild camping still an option, knock on the landowners door ( and pull some weeds in the garden etc if there's a little task you can offer!) | 2 | |
