Criminalising (wild) Camping

[mercalia]

The Government is currently consulting on whether to make ‘intentional trespass’ a criminal offence – but because of vague wording, we are concerned that this could be interpreted to include wild camping. Cycling UK’s national off-road advisor Kieran Foster explains what’s going on, and what it means for cycle touring and bikepacking.

I won"t be worrying, manifesto or whatever.
But i promise to leave no trace, bury my deposits and soiled manifesto.

The Government's consultation was only about the legislation in England and Wales.
