>>2644489I like stealth camping because that way I get to "larp" I was still in the army, in those exercises we had to sneak around even civilian population areas, set up trafic observation posts nearby pathways etc etc. Of course we had to hide from everyone because we had to practice being able to hide from enemy personell as well.
In Finland we do have the right to roam (that also applies to traditional hook and bait fishing), so going trough someones lands and camping there shouldn't be an issue, as long as you do not set up campfires without the permission of the land owner or go unreasonably close to their tended yards and homes. Roaming turns in to trespassing when you start disrupting the peace of someones home (the Finnish eqvivalent would be domestic peace).
Funny thing is that a tent and the immediate area around it is also protected by "domestic peace", just like with a real house. So if you set up a temporary camp on someones lands (unless you go in to someones backyard or if you are damaging the area, digging the ground, felling trees, littering etc), they are not allowed legally to come harass you or you could call the police on them.
This being said, boomers and (especially young) women are very hostile towards people who camp in the public woods nearby populated areas. That's why stealth camping is something that I'd prefer. (No realistical ways of "true" /out/ing here, it's mostly farmland, tree fields and cities around where I live) and I'd rather not deal with some powertripping boomer who wants to play the neighbourhood cop.
