I have never wild-camped but have camped alone on small quiet campsites and there is certainly nothing to fear. I have so far always said I didn't fancy the wildcamping (friends of mine do it all the time) but after a 'hell of a year' and now getting back more freedom I am wondering if my stubborn refusal to give it a try is inhibiting my enjoyment.For example I would like to do the coast to coast but staying in B&Bs all the time is costly and restricting. Similarly on other longer paths. I like to idea of buying a new decent bit of kit each year.
So, thank you Greenhouse. Your post might just see me making a leap into the new adventures thatwild camping will bring.
(Can I add, welcome to the forum, and I think this topic, and your post on the subject, should form a new thread on the forum, rather than tucked away here on the welcome board)
