A Wild Camper's Diary

I am based in the UK and love taking a break from the busyness of life to wild camp. The aim of this podcast is for me to reflect on my wild camping experiences and to provide some insight and (hopefully) some inspiration along the way. I also run a YouTube channel called Ben's Hikes & Camps where I vlog my adventures: https://www.youtube.com/@benhikescamps

Dartmoor - My Thoughts

Alexander Darwall recently won a court case meaning that nobody can wild camp on his land on Dartmoor. The judge ruled that Section 10 (1) of the Dartmoor Act 1985 does NOT permit wild camping. What does this mean for the rest of the commons? Will other landowners follow? Is wild camping now banned on Dartmoor - an historic right lost?Thanks for listening.Want to support the fightback or find out more?https://www.instagram.com/thestarsare...https://www.instagram.com/right.2roam/UPDATE since this episode was recorded: Dartmoor National Park now strongly encourage all people to seek permission from the landowner to camp anywhere on Dartmoor.https://www.dartmoor.gov.uk/enjoy-dartmoor/outdoor-activities/camping-Contact:Instagram: @londoneroutdoorsSupport the podcast or YouTube channel:https://www.buymeacoffee.com/ldnroutdoorsLondoner Outdoors YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/londoneroutdoorsCredit:Short Guitar Clip by Audionautix is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 licence. https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/Artist: http://audionautix.com/

We Can't Lose Dartmoor

Could we lose the right to wild camp without permission on Dartmoor? What exactly is going on? In this episode, I look at the legal challenge that had been brought by landowner Alexander Darwall.

Looking to Autumn

Wet woodland walks, bonfires and the place to ourselves...The perfect time to wild camp!
