Hello all,

I am planning on driving from Munich through to Geneva, and thought I would take 2 or 3 days to travel and camp through the swiss alps.

Can anyone suggest a route, places to stay, or even just tell me if 3 days is long enough.

So far the only place I have found to camp is Kandersteg, and I think this will be good for the final leg of my journey, but I suspect I will need at least 2 other campsites, one somewhere in the middle and one closer to Munich.

Thanks for any help you can give!

I'm still working on the timing for everything, and probably leaving at least one day between most big cities.

At the moment i'm trying to decide if it would be better to drive south from Amsterdam to try out the nurburgring and then camp for the night before going to Hamburg. Or to go north and try out a bit of Germany's seaside before Hamburg.
