Our route will take us high and deep into Dartmoor, including standing on the summit of High Willhays Tor, the highest peak in Southern England (range access dependant). Moderate waling through potentially boggy ground and some steep assents and descents carrying full packs consisting of full kit for two nights plus all food. Water will be collected from the countless streams, purified and bolied for meals drinking water. Changable weather at any time of year adds to the challenge. There is no need for prior wild camping experience but some level of fitness is required perhaps through day walks / hikes to get the most out of the experience

Day 1

Join us at our designated meeting point to start your 3-day introduction and the experience of Wild Camping. The camping destinations will be discussed before we set out and may depend on the group and our progress, but likely starting from a parking area near Belstone in the Dartmoor National Park.

We will meet at 10 am to check our equipment, collect a bit of admin and briefing for the 2-night, 3 day camping expedition on Dartmoor.

Our departure is estimated at around 11 am as we set out on a 3–6-hour hike heading into the moors for our wild camping spot. You will have a chance to take in some history, wildlife and enjoy the stunning views, with breaks along the way.

For those looking to gain some basic skills, we will give an overview of, packing, risk assessment, map,compass & GPS navigation and understanding weather forecasts and safety. In the evening, we'll set up camp, source water to prepare meals, and relax in the wilds.

Day 2

On the second day of our Wildcamping experience we will break camp after breakfast, discuss the route we intend to take for the day and then set off for 6 to 8 hours hiking the moors and tors. There will be frequent rest stops and walking pace will be set by the group.

We will again look for a suitable but targeted spot to set up camp, collect water if needed and cook evening meals. Relax and take in the surroundings for the evening, hopefully with a good sunset.

Day 3

On the third day of our Wild Camping experience after breakfast and packing up, we'll resume our planned route as we navigate through Dartmoor's stunning landscape, our instructors will support and guide us, allowing us to test our navigation skills, spot risks or identify a place for a future solo wild cam of your own.

We aim to return to the meeting point by approximately 2 pm, concluding our two days of wilderness camping and backpacking. Leaving with base newfound skills, and confidence in having taken possibly your first steps to being able to access the countryside solo.
