Hi all,

In June we are going to Austria, but looking for a good camp site near Frankfurt...either side of it up to 50miles would be great.

Also do we need any special hookup gear or will the UK hookups fit on the continent?

Ross

The majority of sites use the standard blue plug that we use in the UK although there are still a few sites using 2 pin sockets and the it is always wise to take an adaptor in the above link.

Thank you BlueExpo97 & David, appreciated. So I take it thats a blue socket & my standard hookup will plug straight into it?

Regards

Ross

Thats right, the same as here. Funnily enough you will find its the German vans that seem to need the adaptors as unlike UK vans I don't think they come with a hook-up cables and tend to use those reels of cable you buy in DIY outlets which of course have continental connections.

Not using a van of any type David...we're seasoned campers & buying a small 3 man tent for my mrs & me (didnt want to take our 10 man as it would be wasted).

We are also pro aircraft photographers & are on the way to Austria, a place called Zeltweg, should be fun ;)

Thanks for the help & info.

PS like your website, some seriously good info was found there, nice one

Thanks Captain, we haven't settled on a site in Germany yet...it's only a 2 night stop-over on the way through..so we thought midway between Frankfurt & Nuremburg, but I never came across that camp site, will go search it out now...appreciated.
