Emmen is a city in the Netherlands. It's located near the German border. The only motorway here is the A37, just a few kilometers south of the city.

Wild camping

Right next to the city centre you'll find the Emmerdennen, a small forest crammed in between some of the cities districts. It might be good for wild camping, although I have no experience with it myself there. To reach it just walk from the train station in eastern direction on the Boslaan, the forest basically starts after 100m.
