Grainau to Bad Rappenau
Bad Rappenau
The following day the weather was a little better, not quite so wet but still grey and miserable. Being a Sunday however the roads were quieter and we made better progress. Unlucklily we missed a turn off on the motorway and had to make a small detour in the Hohenloher Land but eventually we got to Bad Rappenau one our usual last stops before Köln.
Once we arrived, I took Puh for a long walk as the weather was dry. After our return, Uli and I walked over to the thermal baths to check in, taking our sauna gear with us. When you check in you always receive a voucher for one free visit to the baths and sauna which we gladly took advantage of. As always we enjoyed our visit there and we concluded it with a very nice but rather large meal in their restaurant. During our meal we decide we would make an early start the following morning and try to get back to Köln before lunchtime. Which we did and concluded our late summer trip with an extended breakfast back in our home.

Sexten to Grainau
Grainau
The following morning we awoke to heavy clouds and rain. The expected bad weather had arrived. The weather forecasts predicted that it would continue in the alps and in Germany for at least the next few days. We had decided the previous night that we would try to get back home to Köln quickly and made the decision in the morning to take the most direct route and use the Brenner motorway.
We packed up quickly, paid our dues and then drove down through Sexten into the valley. That went fairly quickly but once in the valley and on the road to the Brenner our troubles started. It was a Saturday and the end of the holidays in Bavaria so there was a lot of traffic. Added to that there were major roadworks which made our progress all the way to Sterzing very slow. Just past Sterzing, frustrated by the busy roads, we stopped for a welcome break for some coffee and a bite to eat.
Once we got back on the road our progress was a little faster until we started to approach Innsbruck where it was just stop-and-go the whole time and in really miserable weather. We planned to drive to Bad Wörishofen to stopover for the night but as our navi was predicting more jams ahead we changed our plans, took a detour and drove to Grainau instead. We gave the site a call from the van just to make sure we would have a pitch after the long drive and eventually we arrived there in pouring rain in the early evening.
After such a long and strenuous drive it was very relaxing to be somewhere that we knew and liked. Of course after we set up we walked over to the sauna to relax away the stress of the day. Clean and rested we then strolled down to the Schmölzer Wirt Restaurant where we had a nice meal and also an pleasant conversation with our table neighbours, a young couple who had moved from Brazil to Berlin. We were pretty tired when we got back to the van and after we had dealt with Puh we were happy to get into bed and sleep.

Caravan Park Sexten
St.-Josef-Straße 54 / Via San Giuseppe
Pitches: 268 on gravel. Ramps may be necessary
Daily Charges: 46,50€ (September 2019). Electricity ca. 1,00€ pro Kilowatt hour, charged on departure. Local tax 1,35€ per Person. Fresh water and disposal free of charge.
Location: This beautifully situated campsite lies between the Kreuzberg Pass and the village of Sexten. It is surrounded by the magnificent peaks of the dolomite mountains in the Drei Zinnen Region of Südtirol (south Tyrol). The pitches are laid out in three main areas, are pretty level and have electricity, fresh water, waste water drain as well as some which have a gas connection and a tv connection. Most pitches are for normal motorhomes and caravans but there are also extra large pitches for the very long luxury liners. On site there are three buildings housing modern showers and toilets as well as dishing washing rooms, laundries and drying rooms. Dogs are also taken care for with dog showers and an exercise area.
The reception and check in is the central hotel building which also houses two restaurants. Adjacent is the large and very modern swimming pool and sauna department. This is of the highest of standards and offers a wide range of saunas, relaxation areas and treatments. Entrance costs 21,00€ per person plus any treatments or massages. The restaurants have also a very high standard offering a wide range of international and regional dishes.
Also on site is a large shop with a wide range of foods and wines, clothing and souvenirs. Further more on offer are a number of sports activities including mountain bike hire and climbing or dog training courses with further activities such as horse riding or golf close by and in the winter of course skiing.
Directly next to the campsite is a stopover parking lot for short stay motorhomes with overnight prices of around 35,00€. Close by is also the motorhome service area for grey water disposal, chemical toilet disposal and equipment for washing and cleaning your motorhome.
Alongside the hotel there are also a number of holiday lodges for rent including a large tree house!
In short they have thought of almost everything!
Conclusion: A top class site that covers almost every wish. Certainly one of the most expensive sites we have ever stayed upon but the quality of the services is outstanding. Highly recommended is a visit in the swimming pool/ sauna/wellness department. The food and service in the restaurant is extremely good.
