The wild camping code:
- Camp high on open hills away from main tracks, houses and farms
- Minimise numbers of people and tents - Pitch your camp late in the evening and leave early in the morning
- Don't dig drainage ditches, trample plants or move rocks - If asked by a landowner move on, do so respectfully and without argument
- Don't light any fires; use a proper camping stove for cooking - Toileting should be well away from any water source or path (30m or more)
- Paper and sanitary items should be bagged up and carried out, not buried - Do not use streams or rivers for washing with soaps or detergent
- Maintain the peace by aiming to be as quiet as possible during your camp - Don't remain in the same spot for more than two nights maximum
- Bag up and carry out all litter, including food scraps - Leave no trace that you've camped
