Hi,

We're planning on spending a week in Alsace, preferably near the Route des Vins, in July and would be very grateful for any recommendations.  We'll be taking a tent and 2 dogs.

Thanks for your help!

THIS is a really nice site

Or you could try the really good municipal site at Obernai click HERE

Thanks Swanseajack - Camping Clair Vacances does look nice, but no mention of dogs!  I've emailed to see whether they'll accept them or not.

The municipal site also looks good - do you know whether you can have electric on tent pitches or only for caravans?

Final question ... has anyone tried CAMPING LE SCHLOSSBERG http://www.ukcampsite.co.uk/sites/details.asp?revid=6363?

Thanks for all your help!

I saw plenty of dogs when we were there last year. Don't forget your Camping Carnet......it's a "must have"!

A site I used 2 years ago is ideal for the wine route. Camping Municipal Pierre de Courbretin at Ribeauville only 3 miles from the main road and just north of Colmar. The site is in a quiet location right on the edge of the town. The toilet/shower facilities were excellent. The site itself was broken up into bays with between 4 and 8 pitches to each. There is a local swimming pool just a few yards from the site. The town is very picturesque and is only a few minutes walk. There are several restaurants and a excellent selection of shops. The location for touring the wine route is ideal, it's on it and right in the middle.

Camp Municipal Pierre-de-Coubertin, Rue de Landau, 68150 Ribeauville [tel: 0389736671]

Thank you all for your help - now we just need to decide which site!

Thanks

Just in case it is of any help to others ... I've had a response from Camping Clair Vacances - they don't accept dogs.

Alsace is a beautiful part of France - with some excellent wine (Gerwurtztraminer.....mmmmmmmmm).

Places to visit include Strasbourg  Colmar  and Munster (look out for the storks nesting on the chimneys !)
