Backpacking on the North Downs Way – Thurnham to Wye

Sunday 17 March 2019

I woke a few times during the night. Every couple of hours or so the wind would really hit the tent and the roar of the wind and sound of the fabric going taught would wake me up. I am pleased to say that the tent didn’t flex or shake and seemed very stable. I would look at the time on my phone and just roll over and go back to sleep. I seem to know when I still have some sleep left in me and when I don’t.

Backpacking on the North Downs Way – Cuxton to Thurnham

Saturday 16 March 2019

Backpacking in the South East of England is not a particularly easy pastime especially if you want to walk for several days at a time and camp at the end of each day. There are very few campsites where you need them to be and most of them do not really cater for the one night backpacker anyway.

Summer Solstice Wild Camp

Sunday 21 June 2015

The plan was straight forward enough. We would drive to Dartmoor. Walk out onto the moors. Set up camp and watch the sunset. In the morning we would wake up early and watch the sunrise on Summer Solstice.

Nant Cwm Du Wildcamp

Saturday 14 September 2013

Idrove up from Devon to meet with friends Brian and Creag at the Storey Arms car park in the Brecon Beacons for a quick overnight wild camp. I had planned a week in Snowdonia, staying at the Plas Plas Curig Hostel in Capel Curig, when the idea of a quick wild camp was suggested so I was more than happy to leave a day earlier to fit this in en route.
