These are pretty typical of campgrounds in most of Europe. I'm not sure if this one is in Denmark or Germany. Bike sites are usually just a large open grassy area. Even if you go to the smaller campgrounds you are usually crunched in between two caravans. IME it would be hard to find a convenient place to hang it. However, there were a few where a hammock would have worked.

European campgrounds are much different than those in North America. They are more structured, and many of the spots are taken by season long leases with camp trailers parked in them. Little or no vegetation separating the sites. There are no marked sites for ent, you just pitch them ere you can in the designated area. They can be very crowded. I probably have 50 more pictures of European campgrounds, and they are not much different.
