I have found some pretty good rides around me in the Nordrhine-Westphalia region. Hope it helps.

Hell, count me in for the July 4th ride if you'll have me!
Where are you planning to depart from to begin with?

I am not hosting the run. But it was asked in a public venue for help getting route info. People will be coming up from Italy and some of us will be coming down from Germany and Garmisch is a nearly central point. I said Edelweiss as that is the resort there, but I believe the plan is to camp friday and saturday night and depart either sunday or monday. I am sure the more the merrier and will keep this post updated as I get more info.

Here are some options to find interesting routes.
From an older post:
The Michelin map I use to plan interesting routes can be found at http://www.viamichelin.com/web/Maps.
All (yellow and red colored) scenic roads have green lines.

Keep in mind as well, most swiss Camping grounds dont allow open fires. There is usually a few BBQ pits to be shared among the camping population.
They get uppity if your having too much fun as well....

That said, the route from Garmisch, down through austria to switzerland then across to St Moritz is awesome if you keep off the motorways in Austria. Once you hit the swiss border there are no motorways untill well after St Moritz, just the pristine nature, twisty roads and Fluelen Pass of the swiss national park.
If you wanted to, from St Moritz you could head to Bormio, italy and ride the Stelvio Pass, which is JUST FREAKING UNBELIEVABLE!!!
but you'll need a day or 2 extra
