Hi

My 1st message and I am already asking for advice! I am racing at an ironman distance triathlon in a place called Roth about 30Km south of Nuremburg in july 2008.

Having got back in to camping we have decided to go as a family, wife an 4 kids, as a ready made support group. However I am struggling to find any camping advice/sites in Germany - particularly near Nuremburg. Can anyone give me any pointers please?

Thanks

Have a look here for starters.

When we camped in Germany I remember that it was best to search for campsites by Region

Welcome to UKCS. 

The Eurocampings website lists lots of sites in  Bavaria, with one listed at Roth - http://www.eurocampings.co.uk/en/europe/germany/bavaria/camping-waldsee-111113/.   It's definitely a good source for information about campsites throughout Europe - with links to the website of the site itself if one is available.  Also the Alan Rogers guides are a good source of information about sites - you can usually find them in a reasonable sized library.

The thread in this topic 'Continental first timers' may give you a lot of help regarding other aspects of camping in Europe and is a good place to start for information. 

Thanks for your help

I have sent off the form. With 2500 people racing and 60 pitches available accommodation might be more of a challenge than the race itself.

Got a typically very efficient reply from the campsite suggested by ValA with what appears to be a very reasonable rate. 2 adults 4 kids large tent and EHU - 5 nights for 200euro.

The contract is currently with a translator (a mate of mine) to make sure that my understanding of a 2page letter in German is correct

Thanks for advice
