Wild camping in the Lake District - the best way to experience the great outdoors: Top tips

There's nothing quite like a wild camp - it's an experience I'd recommend to anyone who loves walking and the outdoors. When everyone else has left the mountains you have the place to yourself - and the chance to see spectacular sunsets, sunrises, mist filled valleys and the most amazing dark and stary night skies you'll ever see if you are lucky. In the Lake District you are allowed to camp high in the fells above the highest fell wall and there are plenty of spots for that!
