Wehrseifen, Metzgesfeld: For these campsites, early arrival is generally not allowed due to resident protection reasons.
Alternative Areas for Other Campsites: For campsites along the Nordschleife, alternative areas for early arrival have been set up, but these should only be used in exceptional cases.
