Top tip: if you're going to stealth camp, you need to use equipment which is earth-toned. So green-, tan,- and brown-coloured tents / tarps etc. This will help you blend in and remain hidden. You don't need to camo up and look like a deserter from the army, but it's better to blend into nature than it is to stand out.

Great tip, thank you! Forgot to mention it in the video. That's why we always prefer using the tents in neutral colours like grey, brown and dark green

In Scotland we can wild camp with the right to roam except for some over used areas HoweverEngland only jas wild camping on Dartmoor and nowhere else. In Ireland I can vamp in some national parks like Wicklow but other areas no. So, in the British isles, head for Scotland.

Very valuable info, didn't know that the wild camping is quite restricted in England. Scotland sounds nice!👍🏻

@@WalkingNatureWorldBest time for Scotland is end of April or May. That way you won't get swarmed by midges and the weather can be surprisingly good. There are some great trails - The Cape Wrath trail, West Highland way, East Highland way, The Great Glen Way, The John Muir trail, The Caterans way, The Southern uplands way, The Ayrshire coast walk, The Arran coastal trail, The Borders Abbey trail, The Rob Roy trail, The Fife, The Speyside way, The Fife coastal trail and the Scottish National trail, amongst others. In England you are best stealth camping unless on the high mountain tops and even there with discretion. Scotland has the right to roam. There are rules though which any responsible wild camper would follow anyway.

Thanks, an excellent, clear, useful video. I’m soon starting the Camino Norte and taking a light tent for flexibility and to avoid crowded bunk rooms. Sounds like finding camp spots was a problem. Were there many campsites?

Glad it was helpful! It was a bit problematic, especially due to the season when we hiked, as some of the campgrounds have already closed by the middle of September. But there are quite a few campgrounds on the way and we stayed in them whenever possible. We actually have a list of campgrounds on the Camino published on our blog: walkingnatureworld.com/2021/03/11/the-list-of-campgrounds-campings-to-stay-at-on-camino-de-santiago-del-norte-in-spain/ Best of luck to you! And enjoy your Camino!
