Wild Camping

Wild camping is, simply, setting up camp whereever you find yourself at end of a day. Sometimes this leads to amazing campsites that are a 100 times better than any hotel.

On my trip i am planning on doing a large amount of wild camping. Probably 70-80% particuarly in more western countries where accomodation is expensive but also high up in remote mountainos regions (which i am looking forward to as one of the highlights of my trip).

I recently found this website by Alastair Humphreys ( i have his 2 books) a fellow touring cyclist is has cycled for over 4 years around the world. He has posted a link to another fellow cyclist, Peter Gostelow, whose journal is one of the best i have read, website about wild camping with numerous pictures. It really is worth a look.picture taken by Peter gostelow. You can find his journal by heading to www.crazyguyonabike.com and searching for peter gostelow "a long way home"

Enjoy!
