Wild camping, i.e. spending the night at undesignated campsites, is legally regulated or even prohibited in many regions. Austria and Germany in particular have strict regulations on this. The following always applies: designated nature conservation areas are taboo for overnight camping. Private land and private forests offer a good alternative - wild camping is possible here with the express permission of the owner. Spending the night in (rest) areas is generally prohibited unless it is to restore your own fitness to drive. However, every country has different laws! Sweden, Norway and Finland are considered an absolute paradise for wild campers, whereas the west of Europe is rather difficult. In any case, find out about legal wild camping options and, if in doubt, ask the relevant municipality or local police station.
