Default e2200 camper van stuck in fourth gear

Hi does anyone know how I can get my camper out of fourth gear, clutch seems fine but will not budge. Is there any think I can do to get it out of gear so I can get it home. It happen while my wife and kids on holiday 200 miles away. Is this a recovery home or a simple fix task . Any advice would be greatly recieved. This is a 1985 2ltr diesel if that helps. Gary

Sounds internal. Maybe try rocking the truck back and forth while pushing on the shifter.
