After my success answering Annec's question, its my turn. However, I’m not clever enough for an ‘½ûÂþÌìÌÃ’ question – so I’ll go for one with a ‘Greek’ connection insteadI’m a ‘sad’ man who likes numbers.

Mergozzo is a beautiful place.

Have given up hope of getting to Italy this year.

Will keep you updated on changes.

(The Aachen route only adds 120 miles/2hrs to the trip back according to Via Michelin)

Has another look at the map.

If you drive through Germany as far as Aachan, you only have a 3.5 hour trip (about 210 miles) across France to Calais.ÌýÌýA pretty easy non-stop trip.

If you drive through Switzerland (Gotthard tunnel) and into Germany (my Lorrach route) and up through Germany to Strasbourg, you could fill up with petrol and food in Germany just before entering France near Strasbourg.Ìý In theory, you could drive non stop through France to CalaisÌý and avoid the quarantine requirements. ( but no toilet stops).

380 miles approx - 6 hrs on motorway?

Good luck

In theory, if you stop in Luxembourg you would have to quarantine on entering Swiitzerland.Ìý Not sure if you would be allowed to just stay overnight and continue your journey.

If you stop in either Luxembourg and/or Belgium on the way back its 2 weeks quarantine on your return to the UK

We always stay at the Seerauch Hotel in Beckenreid,Ìý on the shores of Lake Lucerne.Ìý Best hotel we've found in that area, and very convenient to get to from the motorway (5 mins).Ìý

Food is great, service superb, and English spoken fluently.Ìý Their website appears to be in German, but give them a ring.

Good luck with the trip.
