We shall be travelling the opposite way this year.   The Simplon is quite easy.  maximum 1 in 9  The road on the Italian side is typical of Italian roads, being a bit rough in places.   The Swiss side is as usual, very smooth.   Not used the Grimsel yet but a possibility this year.

Our site on Maggiore is Conca d'oro between Baveno and Verbania near to the River Toce.  It is on the lake and has very good facilities.   This will be our 4th visit.   At Interlaken our site is Jungfraublick.   A small very clean site.   Superb views up the Lauterbrunnen valley to Jungfrau. Our 6th or 7th visit.  The car normally never turns a wheel whilst we are there, mountain railway station 10 minutes, supermarket 10 minutes, more basic (lidl, Netto type) 2 minutes, Interlaken 15/20 minutes.
