>>2660469Depends on how well you know the area, the area I go to in Limburg is not monitored. Although my campsite was found on accident one morning by some people walking their dog.
Personally I use a surplus bivvy bag from the army, it's small, it's stealthy and setting it upp takes 5 mins. Especially if you pre-roll it with your sleeping bag and air matress inside (although it won't fit the original bag if you do that).
Allows me to pack everything I need for an overnighter into a 10-20L bag so it's not even that obvious I'm going /out. Being spotted with a backpack isn't all that weird you could just be on a hike but if you're willing to sacrifice some comfort you could even pack it all in a sports bag, no one will bat an eye. Just be ready to get out quick. People most likely won't physically detain you so if you get caught just pack up and leave asap, before cops get there, if they're called in at all.
If you don't know the area I'd scout ahead using google maps. Try to make out paths/area's you believe people are less likely to go through. For example, the path google maps show (and any you can discern using satellite imaging) is nowhere near you. Or you can hide/get close to something obstructing a good view.
One tactic I use (+ this could work anywhere in NL) is to look for small patches of woods surrounded by farmland on all sides.
Jump the fence, move into the treecover and you're hidden while normies won't hop the fence and find you on accident.
Another tactic I've been meaning to try out one day is camping inside one of these encircled areas surrounded by a highway on/off ramp (marked by the X). You could just bike to one in your local area, stash your bike, walk there after dark, cross the road and you've got a private resort. You can even be ballsy and wear a high vis vest while crossing so no-one will think anything of it. Obviously you can't make a fire but a small bhutane stove for cooking should be fine. Don't forget your earplugs though.
