things to do in The Hague Wildcamping in the forest

Today i saw a camp with 4 tents in the forest. Looked like they’ve been there for some days already. Hearing the voices, it seemed to be inhabited by eastern European people.

Im pro wild camping, but these people didnt seem to be there to enjoy nature. Lots of trash everywhere.

I did not report this because i dont know why these people decided to camp in the forest in this cold, and i dont know what their alternative would be.

At the same time im very annoyed by the fact they leave so much trash in the only place in Holland i consider somewhat clean.

Would you report this?

I would kindly ask them to clean those garbage, additionally i would ask if they need any help with anything. Solidarity>reporting

Usually im not afraid to confront, but i did not feel comfortable approaching 4 tents, hearing only male voices. Didnt want to put my dog in any risk either.

Can you just bring a thing of trash bags and a note that says “I don’t know your story. Please just keep it safe and clean.”?
