Summary
We left Camping Ferienzentrum at Heidenau shortly after 09:30 and arrived at Camping Tangloppen near Copenhagen some 5.5 hours later. A total of 212 miles at 40mpg and a 45 minute ferry from Puttgarden to Rodby.

Having made full use of the modern and pristine sanitary facilities at Camping Ferienzentrum, we left the site shortly after 09:30. The Campsite machine swallowed up our access card and duly returned 5 Euros 50 to our credit card.
Another non-descript journey on the German autobahn. The inclement weather made little impact to the speed of the average German driver paying no attention to the 130 km/h “optional” speed limit.
We had pre-booked the ferry crossing from Puttgarden to Rodby at 13:20, paying extra for a flexible ticket. Whether this was necessary or not I have no idea as we arrived early and duly boarded the next departure.
On arrival at Rodby we were swiftly pulled to one side for a passport and driving licence check before commencing the 1.5 hour journey to Copenhagen. At Camping Tangloppen we were greeted by another automated machine which told us “Unit is Not Ready”. Eventually a human appeared and freed up our pitch so we could continue the automated check-in.
The pitch is ok and the sanitary facilities look newly renovated. This is an expensive site but hotel rooms in Copenhagen are 500 Euros per night this week due to a trade fair so mustn’t complain at £50 per night!
