Wild Camping Adventures

22:50


Waking up surrounded by a mountain landscape is a revitalising experience. Wild camping takes you away from everyday life and makes you feel part of the outdoors. It’s also a fantastic way to extend your walking or cycling adventures into more remote wild areas.
As well as being a great experience, the Wild Camping course will help build your skills and confidence. The course is ideal if you want to go on to plan your own wild camping trips and expeditions.
Pete has wild camped over 300 nights often in remote mountainous areas and has a wealth of knowledge to share on the topic. The course is run over two days and will cover the following topics:
- Map reading skills for wild camping.
- Choosing a good site, avoiding environmental damage or disturbing other hill goers.
- Finding water, water purification and avoiding polluting water.
- Sanitation and hygiene.
- Keeping warm and dry.
- Food and drink.
- Things to do in the evening.
- Wild camping and the law.
- Equipment choice.
During the course we will walk for about 4 to 5 hours for two days carrying our overnight gear and food. Our rucksacks are likely to weigh about 15kg. You will need to a good level of fitness and some previous experience hill walking would be very useful.
