Hi all!
I’m planning a trip with my partner this August to France, with a brief stint in Switzerland to meet some friends. We decided to buy 4-day interrail passes to make travel easier. Our current itinerary for our travel days:
Day 1: London » Paris » Camping spot one?
Day 2: Camping spot one? » Fribourg
Day 3: Fribourg » Camping spot two
Day 4: Camping spot two? » Paris » London
I’ve already booked seat for our Eurostar to and from Paris, but I’d be very grateful to get some advice on the two camping spots above!
Here are the specific criteria:
Camping spot one (3-4 nights):
- We can reach it from Paris in a day (starting from Gare du Nord around 9:30-10:00)
- We can reach Fribourg from it in a day
- Easy to reach from train station via walking/bus/hitchhiking
Camping spot two (2-3 nights):
- We can reach it from Fribourg in day
- We can reach Paris from it in a day (making sure we get to Gare du Nord by 21:00)
- Easy to reach from train station via walking/bus/hitchhiking
Things we like generally:
- hiking in coasts/mountains/forests
- swimming
- beaches
I realize that might be a bit broad of an ask, so also I’m keen to hear any nice places you’ve camped in France, Switzerland or nearby that might fit the bill!
