Heading from Duns Berwickshire to Zagan Poland in tracks of Wojtek The Soldier Bear so to speak.

Zagan is twinned with Duns in The Scottish Borders because of the link between a Wojtek the bear spending some of his days after the war near Winfield aerodrome...... You can still see his claw scratch marks on the beech trees nearby.

What I didn't realise is that Zagan is the home of Stalag Luft 3 so I'm guessing it'll be worth spending a day or two in the area before I head into Czech Republic in search of wolves and beer...... Beer mostly.

Anyone have any recommendations of good campsites and any decent hotels or any other attractions before I wear out my search button.

Many thanks FP.
