Hi folks!

We’re three students who’ll be travelling through Germany by car later this week. Arriving to Travemünde in the middle of the night (01) by ferry. We’d very much like to just catch just a few hours of rest somewhere before continuing on towards the Netherlands so we aren’t driving whilst sleepy.

What we’ve found online regarding resting in the wild is confusing at best. We’ll have sleeping bags and tents although it is possible (if rather uncomfortable) to sleep in the car.

Any tips or advice would be much appreciated, thanks :)

(keep in mind we’re trying to travel cheaply)

Update>

We found someone via 1nitetent.net who was willing to host us for the night. Thanks so much for the help everyone :)

    As others said Its technically illegal to camp in the wild. However, if you dont get noticed nobody will care and if you dont behave like assholes and leave no trash behind nobody will care too. However, I do suggest, that you search for a spot that is not farm land, since most farmers absolutely do not like it when foreigners camp on their land without asking. And it might cause trouble if you get caught.

      Thanks for the reply!

      I’ll keep that in mind - probably search for a bit of a secluded patch of woods or something similar.
