Countries with a wild camping rules page

As of September 24, 2026, FreeCampMaps has wild camping rules pages covering 11 European countries, each citing the official source and the date it was last checked.

What it means on the road

Wild camping is never pinned on the map. Whether you can do it, and where, is a matter of law, so it lives on these pages instead: the rule, then what it means in practice. Where a sign on the ground says otherwise, the sign wins.

How this is counted

  • Counted: every country named by at least one of the 16 rules pages on FreeCampMaps. Some pages cover several countries, and some countries have more than one page.
  • A page counts for a country even when it covers only part of it, such as one national park or one nation within the country. The table names every page so you can see which.
  • The date is the most recent day one of these pages was checked against its official source.

Sources and licenses

Each record keeps its own source and license, and every place page links to the record it came from.
