Few UK backpackers and wildcampers will be unaware of the recent furore surrounding the incredible, unfathomable, decision in the courts that wildcamping is not recreation, so should be banned on Dartmoor. Three Points of the Compass had hoped we might slowly be moving toward increased access to, and enjoyment of, outdoor spaces. Instead, we are headed in the opposite direction. Protest, action, share, fund, or at least talk about it…
Thank you for supporting this important campaign, John.

I wasn’t aware of this until I read this post. I just wonder why the government saw the need to introduce this legislation? Might it be due to large, irresponsible groups with no countryside manners? I suspect it may well be.

Not quite sure we can blame the government in this particular instance. There is, after all, supposed to be a separation of government and the judiciary. Though not at all happy with their pulling back from the promised Right to Roam review
