Pitches and places to camp are best found with Caravanya
The exact guidelines and rules how it is with wild camping and free standing in the individual countries you can see on the respective country page. For each country, however, the following applies: Watch out for other campers and interfere with nature as little as possible. Do not destroy anything to get to a place or to make the place more comfortable. However, there are general points you can consider to find a good place for a night.
Cleanliness
As a rule of thumb for the pitch search, you should remember: a clean pitch is a good pitch. Empty bottles, cans, broken glass or cigarette butts are a clear indication that your pitch is a popular place and that other people meet here regularly. Therefore, if possible, you should avoid the pitch and look for another one.
Tracks
If you are standing on asphalt and see circular tire tracks, your pitch might be very popular with other drivers and serves as a practice ground to improve the "driving skills" of younger drivers. There are similar situations in the forest. If you come across tire tracks here, cyclists or motorcyclists are probably more likely to be around.
Trash can
A garbage can always indicates that the place is more frequently visited by other people and this is generally known. However, you should not be put off by this and take a look in the trashcan. Alcohol bottles or fast food bags indicate that the place is relatively popular, handkerchiefs, nappies or the like rather indicate that the place is visited during the day.
Surroundings
You were in the car the whole time, so get out of the car and take a little walk to stretch your legs. If you find garbage cans near your seat, tire tracks on the ground or you see a lot of garbage on the ground, please note the previous points. Even if all of this is a bit away from your place, you will probably still be recognizable.
Our tip: Asia is partly very densely populated. In some places, hygiene standards can also be rather suboptimal, which means that some diseases can spread faster. Before your trip you should definitely check which vaccinations you might need. You can find an overview here: ITVC.
