We are considering driving directly south from Budapest through Croatia Bosnia (a little bit of Serbia) to Sarajevo to Dubrovnik where we would then drive up the coast via Split etc through Slovenia into Italy. We aim to be around Venice by Xmas.
Does this sound do-able?
Are there any massive mountain ranges we'd he crossing and would this be OK in Nov and Dec?
We got a bit caught out in the Polish Tetra mountains with the plummeting temperatures and poorer roads and want to be a bit more savvy now. It's hard to gauge the height of the roads from Google map, satnav or the large Europe book road map. Generally in the whole region temperatures are mild right now.
I also wonder if there are any other considerations? We understand about the insurance issues. I just read wild camping is illegal in Croatia but we have found just enough campsites that are open now.
Any general as well as specific advice about this route would be much appreciated .
