Guided Adventures | Mountain Wild camp
Wild camping is when you sleep in a tent or a bivvy bag far away from the comforts of a camp site, usually up a mountain somewhere.
Everything you need for hiking, sleeping and eating has to be carried on your back. Wild camping adds a whole new dimension to being out on the mountains and is an absolute must for any beginner who wants to see what the great outdoors can offer.
As far as routes and locations go, my wild camp adventure is similar to my "The Big Day Out" Tryfan and the Glyders adventure but involves sleeping up on the slopes and then continuing the hiking and scrambling the next morning. With any luck we'll see a fantastic sunrise and have most of the mountain to ourselves!
Wild camping requires some specialist kit (such as a lightweight tent, ground mat and compact sleeping bag) which I can advise you on buying before the adventure. Alternatively, depending on group size, I may be able to lend you some of the kit.

Due to having to carry the kit needed for a good wild camp you should have decent fitness to be able to climb steep hills with the extra weight on your back, and it will certainly help if you have had experience with camping beforehand (even if it's just in a camp site).
• A decent quality lightweight tent *
• A decent quality lightweight sleeping bag *
• A roll mat or other type of ground insulation *
• A head torch and spare batteries
• Full waterproofs (jacket with a hood, and trousers)
• Walking boots that you've worn before
• Proper walking socks
• A backpack (around 40-50L)
• Hat and gloves
• A spare warm top (e.g. a fleece) in a plastic (waterproof) bag
• At least 2L of water
• Two decent sized packed lunches
• Snacks (chocolate bars, sweets, nuts etc)
• A plastic bag for litter
• Cash for the bus and the summit cafe (if you want)!
* I may be able to help you out with this kit. Let me know what you need.
