The Netherlands have many campgrounds. In case you want to stay on these places, always inform whether there are special requirements. For instance, some campgrounds do not accept youth travelling alone. Open fire is almost never accepted. | The Netherlands have many campgrounds.

During winter, it is usually between 0 and 10 degrees Celcius, although sometimes it may suddenly become lower (-5). In summer, it is usually between 15 and 25 degrees Celcius. Some days it suddenly may increase up to 35. Make sure to take a nice warm [[sleeping bag]] during winter time, and bring a hat and sunscreen during summer. | |||

There are several national supermarkt chains. Cooking staff buying ingredients for a camp, you will mostly find in the cheaper stores like Lidl, Aldi, Bas van der Heijden and Dirk van den Broek. The more expensive chains are among others Super de Boer and Albert Heijn. Ecological food or other specific health food you can usually find in specialised stores in the city center, but especially the larger Albert Heijn supermarkets usually have a lot of this stuff also. When camping in the countryside, you may try local farmers for your meat, dairy and some vegetables. They often have a sign near the street to indicate they sell something. | |||
Scout stuff you can buy in the "ScoutShop". | |||

Als het over een langere periode flink warm is in Nederland, dan neemt het risico op blauw-alg toe. Blauw-alg groeit in (veelal stilstaand) water, en zorgt ervoor dat recreatiewater ongeschikt wordt om in te zwemmen. In de Noordzee kom je sowieso beestjes tegen: daar stikt het van de kwallen, en die kunnen gemeen steken. | Als het over een langere periode flink warm is in Nederland, dan neemt het risico op blauw-alg toe.
