Hi!
Sorry to say but we have only several campings in Ukraine and none of them are located in Lviv or in Western Ukraine.
Here is the list:

However you may deploy your tent on every forest near a road.
What do you mean "Aircooled bug"? If you meant an old VW Beatle then I suppose noone have such technic in our city, and suppose in whole Ukraine.
Also here was a NewBeetle club, but as I see something went wrong and they gone somewhere

Anyway, welcome to Lviv!

If any assistance is required just let us know.

 

There are many campings in the Crimea(near the Black sea). They are marked in the tourist atlas of crimea. also i have version of this atlas for Oziexplorer(PC,PDA)

 

Yes, I mean VW Kaefer '74 ( but only outside, engine is complete tuned, till 1700ccm , Dellorto DRLA 36 double carbs, ENGLE sports cam,MAHLE forged pistons etc., aprox 100HP, built especially for mountains of Norway - see pics.)

This is true

А круто було б якби він попав до нас на зїзд(і я б напевно нарешті вперше зявився).

 

Trip 27 JUL - 7 AUG , Lviv aprox 30 JUL - 1AUG ... but ...I'm not a railway train ...any shit on the road can happens

 

P.S. Still EU car insurance valid in UA ?

 

Think that it does not, but not sure.

Товариш цікавиться чи на Україні діє страховка з євросоюзу

 

Hi ozvalds, you all right, but it must be a "Green card" - special insuranse to cover you responsibility in foreign coutries. It kind is valid in all-europeinian countries. If you interessing about CASCO insuranse, the answer is in your insuranse agreement - a different kinds can be, is like a option.

Good luck and tell about your visit to Ukraine early please .

 

Thank You!
Allready have Green Card insurance as daily ...it is obligate in EU... hope , the same is valid in UA too...

Yes, UA is member of Green Card community over 15 years, is a first country of ex-ussr enjoyed to system of international car insurance. For example, Russia do it only in 2009

P.S. Nise beatles and nice ideas!

My bug only 19.1 ...
But... my is build for long distances, not drag...as I said before...see up ...

 

:shok: Fu@$#k!


I thing if you will create (or continue here) a trhead with beetle-facts, beetle-pics and beetle-links in our forum it can be a good idea Not only me can be interessed.

 

You're always welcome !!!
Btw if You have time and little money, you can visit Baltic together with me (on my return way from UA) and we'll come direct to Estonian VW big fest (second weekend of AUG) near Parnu, on island Kihnu ...160km north from Riga... At first time kind of car is not important...all times soul&heart is important!!!
No visas, no borders , no problem, only gas costs...tent and sleeping bags...
...???

Crazy brave people...!!

 

Coool... Thank You and I need short time for make a main decision and propose it to my friends.

 

Suppose , you have almost two month to think, decide, prepare, find sponsors...
*
Plan B-
You can visit Latvian Big VW meeting 24-26 JUL in Liepaja (westcoast at Baltic sea, our Fest as part of Baltic Beach Party event!!!)
http://www.beachparty.lv/eng/
and than go home ..with me as my Susanin on the road down to UA ...

 

May be for you.. but for us visas are required and there are borders on our way.. or may be I did not get you.
When are you going to visit Baltic and fest? Any dates? Its ineresting and I would consider it with my wife.

 

If You income Poland ( out of UA, hope no visas to PL) , there are NO more check points on your way, NO border soldiers, NO any official people who wants to ask who you are and why you are there, nobody have interest on your person more ...till Finnland, Norway...and Latvia , of course...
Only non-stoled car, valid car insurance, (for probably road police control due overspeeding on highway) your person pass...and thats it...nothing more...
