Camping Frankenhohe, Fischhaus 2,
Schillingsfurst. Tel 098685111
To Find Site:- Leave A7 autobahn at junction 109 and head
towards Schillingsfurst. Take right turn towards Dombuhl and site is on
right in a couple of kilometres and is well signed. From this direction
there is a sharp right turn into the site entrance so be prepared to
pull out to get a good entry into site. The site has a strict
13.00-15.00 pm lunch time closure policy.
This somewhat rustic campsite is situated about a mile from the
town of Schillingsfurst. It has the usual mixture of seasonal campers
and tourist pitches and seems a bit higgledy-piggledy. The pitches
are unmarked which could lead to a free for all
at busy periods. Some of the site is slightly sloping. At less busy
times there seems to be plenty of room. Electric supply is rated at 16
amps and CEE17 blue connectors are used. Water taps are dotted around
the site. Conversely the main toilet is of an excellent standard with
unseated toilets with paper provided in the cubicles. There is a second
toilet block further into the site which looked as if it was undergoing
refurbishment during our visit. Behind reception is a small bar/snack
area. WiFi is available via Hotspots.de and time can be purchased either
at reception or online. Tenters have their own area with a small covered
area for cooking/eating in poor weather. There is a motorhome service
point with fairly easy access although hoses are securely fixed so if
you want to use your own hose you would have to connect to the adjacent
tap. For children there is some play equipment and also a hut which
contains a pool table and table football. During the low season the site
accepts the ACSI discount card.
In my view this campsite is fine for an overnight or short stay.
Although a longer stay would allow you to visit many of the nearby
places on the Romantische
Strasse and to be fair we found it quite a peaceful place. For shopping
there is a supermarket in Schillingsfurst. Also within a couple of
hundred metres of the campsite is a swimming lake complete with changing
facilities.
