Need some advise please

[marsbarbarbar]

Hi everyone

I really want to get back into bushcraft and do some wild camping. One problem i have is none of my friends are interested in coming along, so i will have to go alone. This makes it harder to find a location to camp since i will be more selective of where i will want to stay on my own.

Secondly, i dont know of any locations where wild camping is tolerated or spots which are completely off the beaten track. I would be happy to drive to get to decents spots, but then i will also worry where is safe to leave my car for the night.

Any advise on this will be greatly appreciated

Thanks!

Why dont you camp in a secure site that allows fires? There are a few listed on here you should be able to find quiet spots and you would be legally allowed to camp..

Hello and welcome to the forum

Have a look at either Badgells Wood or Blackberrywood campsites, both easy commute of London and both allow campfires on their sites.

Badgells wood is the more wild of the two as you can camp as far into the wood as you like

Think about going on one of the Meets posted on here - lots of useful folk to help you find your bushcrafty feet

Definitely go to one of the meets organised by BcUK members. Very friendly people with great advice. Yeah, some are barking mad, but they're generally OK. Avoid the ones John Fenna goes to as you'll be there in the same spot chatting all day
