Wild camping in a tent in Scotland tips and tricks | Permits, camping spots and the law

Описание: Watch this before wild camping in Scotland! These top tips and tricks about the law, permits a camping spots, especially Loch Lomond and thee Trossachs National Park will be a good guide for beginners and those going on a thru-hike on the West Highland Way, or those just going on a road trip with a tent.

During lockdown it wasn't allowed but now that all the parks are slowly opening up, I thought now would be a good time to talk about all the things you need to know about wild camping in Scotland.

Here in the UK there are only a few places that you're legally allowed to wild camp, but Scotland is a completely different story in that the Scottish Land Reform Act enables us to exercise our right to roam the land and that includes wild camping. There are a few things you need to know though, I'll go over all of them in this video guide.
