22. Camping Hochschwarzwald

Sad to be leaving our park up today , we really felt like we were in the wilderness last night , there were no other vehicles or campers in sight.
Our washing really needed doing and we both wanted a warm shower , so we decided to stay at a campsite with everything we needed, we just couldn't be bothered with trying to find a laundrette and somewhere close to park the van .
Luckily, there was (what seemed) a cheap £35 a night campsite about a 40 min drive away in a place called Hochschwarzwald. We drove straight there , admiring the snowy landscape along the way .
As soon as we arrived , we realised that the area for campervans was literally a gravel car park , but at least there was a cool view of the ski slope opposite. Also, we had to pay extra for each kW-h of electricity we used.The washing machines and tumble driers were also expensive.
We went back and forth to the washing machines and gave the van a good sort out. Maddy had a good walk too. By the time everything was sorted it was about 2000. We had a hearty spag bowl for tea and went to bed after.Read more
