We did this tour from late May to early July. Roughly outlined, it almost went around the boot via Innsbruck, Verona, San Marino, Gargano, Bari, Lecce, Matera, Tropea, Paestum, Rome and Lake Garda. In total, we drove almost 5,700 km and visited 27 pitches and campsites in 46 days. We mostly found these via the park4 Night and ACSI app.

We actually manage to leave at 10 a.m. Before that, "Gustl", our friends' new dog, was examined.

After we first looked at a parking space at Sepp's, which unfortunately did not correspond at all to the description in Park4 night, we drove to the mobile home parking space in Füssen. For €22/N without electricity, not exactly a snap, but it's quiet and there are plenty of shops (even if we don't need anything😏).
By the way, there is also a digital city tour for Füssen on the Lauschtour app.

It took us about 20 minutes by bike from the CP, although the route is quite chaotic. The bike lanes (if any) run back and forth and often against the direction of travel of the cars.

Alberobello, Bari, Italien
The trulli round houses, built without mortar, are a must-see on a tour of Italy.
The small town of Alberobello includes an entire closed quarter, which is entirely built up with trulli. It is a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
The neighborhood is reminiscent of a fairy tale setting from a movie, with hundreds of white pointed-hat houses, with splashes of blue, green, and sand-colored pops of color. Some trulli are more than 300 years old. They protect you from the heat in summer and keep you warm in winter.
The place is an absolute tourist attraction, ie already in the preseason you fight your way through crowds. It is therefore definitely worth taking a tour around Alberobello. Here you can look at many trulli in peace. For us, this tour was the real highlight.

Lecce centro, Via Giuseppe Palmieri, Lecce, Italien
By bike you can reach Lecce from the campsite in about an hour (18 km). It is advisable to take the trip over the streets. Google indicates a route over farm roads, but this only makes sense with a mountain bike.
In Lecce itself you will be struck by baroque facades and a multitude of churches. To gain access, you usually have to book tickets online. We saved this because clerical pomp is not our thing. Nevertheless, we really liked the city. You should definitely plan a tour - if only because of the good ice cream 🍦.

Matera is one of the oldest cities in the world. Until 1950, the cave dwellings, the so-called Sassi di Matera, were used as dwellings. These are now part of the UNESCO World Heritage.
The visit to the city and a short hike on the opposite plateau were definitely among the highlights of our tour of Italy.

Camping Marina dell'Isola
An ACSI place where we stayed for €22 including tourist tax. From here a stairway leads directly to the city center of Tropea. The beach in front of the CP is quite small and was paved over with sunbeds and umbrellas for rent during our stay.
The sea is a force, but many other people also appreciate it, so that there is quite a tourist hype.
From the port you can go to the Aeolian Islands. The trip to Stromboli was supposed to cost 60€/P, but according to our impression it was no more than a coffee trip. We then enjoyed the view of the volcano from the CP.

Already in 2008 we were on this square to visit Rome. At that time we took the train from the nearby train station to the city. This time we dared the trip by bike. A good undertaking in itself, once you have reached the cycle path along the Tiber. Until then, it's an adventure on highways.
In Rome itself you hardly meet any cyclists. Nevertheless, we found it very comfortable to cycle from sight to sight.
The CP has a swimming pool and very good sanitary facilities. We still got the last day of the ACSI discount - with 23 €/N plus visitor's tax a cheap stay.

One could now write endless essays about this great city. I think if you are planning a visit, you should inform yourself accordingly beforehand. We drove to the main sights and - as already described - explored them by bike. I would do this again and again, since it was very convenient not to have to walk far.
Oh yes, at the Trevi Fountain we ate 2 ice creams (one or 2 scoops each) for 16€. We then saved ourselves the obligatory coin toss in the fountain. 😉

Camper Stop Torbole
On the return trip we decided to go back to our surfing area at Lake Garda from the past days. We chose the Camper Stop Torbole as our pitch. Taking into account the development of the place and the well-known "Lake Garda bonus", the 38€/N was fine, even if it was the highest amount on our trip for an overnight stay.

Of course, we also took the obligatory walk to Gefro the next morning.

Summary of the trip:
It was a varied and highly interesting trip, with culture and sights in the foreground. Because of the weather and the on-site conditions (beaches and sea not comparable to Corsica or Sardinia), beach stays have only taken place occasionally. But this was also clear to us from the start and also not the goal of the trip
The road conditions in southern Italy were a drop of bitterness. The partly very small streets were mostly littered with holes and bumps. Combined with the inevitable increased attention for Italian drivers who want to overtake, the distances between our stops were a real challenge. Even the west coast of Corsica, on the other hand, was a coffee ride.
But that shouldn't deter you from making this trip. It was a great experience and places like Matera, Ostuni, Monteriggione, Polygnano, Paestum, Tropea, Lecce or or or... you don't forget so quickly.
