We enter Germany from the Netherlands and make our way to Cologne. There, we spend a couple of days immersed in the festivities that are the Christmas Markets before continuing to the end of this leg of our tandem bicycle tour. World Tandem Bicycle Tour.

Just started following your videos in the last few days. What a great decision you have made ! I hope that your dreams are fulfilled. I love German Christmas Markets. The 6th of December is the highlight of Christmas Markets asit is the Feast of St Nicholas and he visits the homes of all the children and leaves little gifts. (St Nicolas is of course Santa 'Claus). In the small town of Bernkastel-Kues on the River Mosel, St Nicholas arrives by a small decorated boat and brings gifts for all the children who have gathered in a small square in the town. Magical.Â
I am unsure but it is not legal to wild camp in many European countries. Some authorities will turn a blind eye to the practice but others may come down hard on those caught doing so. I may be wrong in saying but the only countries I can think of where there would be no problems are Sweden, Norway and Scotland. In those countries the right to wild camp is enshrined in law, though there may be exceptions as to where it is allowed. In England, only Dartmoor in the south-west of the country, allows wild camping.
Nice tour. But you know that wild camping is prohibited? Can get very expensive. Have a good trip.
Ehm…you do realize wild camping is illegal in Germany, don't you?
