There are campsites along the way but not always conveniently spaced. Some are listed in the Cicerone Guide
http://www.cicerone.co.uk/product/detai ... e-cycleway or information may be obtained from each site as to the next along the way, or try
http://www.bergstrassebikebooks.com/cycletouring.html for information. The ADFC maps show campsites but you would need an up-to-date set (

Hi
I have travelled throughout Europe a few years now and the best books to use for the route are BikeLine. They can be brought through Stanfords. I have just done the R1 route from Hook of Holland to Berlin but it goes onto St Petersberg and the BikeLine book shows the route, camping or B&B, and all information that would be needed on the way. A friend has cycled the Danube an he said the camping was great but not quiet the same as German standards.
There are a few things to know when travelling for instnace if you are using a 26in wheel tyres are hard to come by as t European tyres are 4 mm bigger even if they saw they are 26in.
Have a good ride.
Bye
Keith

Beyond Hungary the best consolidated source of informaton is probably
www.Danube-info.orgThe euro velo 6 website has a forum which may contain some info although last time I looked (May) it had had very few visitors.
For some broader info about Hungary, Serbia, Croatia mixed in with a bit of Danube cycling try:
