Road trip to Berlin

[Gooner]

Myself and a mate are travelling from Kent, UK to Berlin in August. The idea being to take in as much as possible along the way avoiding motorways (freeways) where possible and camp at different locations.
has anybody got any recommended camp sites, places to view, nice routes etc?

Not sure what your exact plans are, how many miles - days etc. As I don't live there, can't offer too much advice. What I can say is that I was stationed in Germany in the 1980s and was there this past fall. My favorite part of Germany is the Black Forest. It would add quite some time to your trip, but if at all possible, I highly recommend perhaps a trip to the Triberg Wasserfalle. It's quite the hike, but if you have been on a bike for many miles, it's a nice break. Triberg is also a neat town, but touristy. Next to the House of 1,000 clocks is an awesome Italian Restaurant.
I saw numerous motorcycles out in this country and wished I had one myself at that time.

How do you cross the channel ? On a Bike ? How much does it cost to cross ? Just curious.

Although I have no idea of the costs nowadays you can either use the Chunnel out of Calais or several ferries from Europe into England (one runs from Calais into Dover)

Hi guys thanks for the replies, we are taking the bikes on the train through the tunnel takes around 40 minutes, cost for the train are £78.00 return.
its the same price if you have a pillion passenger as well.
