    This one's already a pretty popular spot so I doubt revealing it will make it much busier! Llyn Bochlwyd (below Tryfan) in Snowdonia. Very atmospheric, being surrounded by Tryfan's western and Glyder Fach's northern faces, and you get a good view of the sun setting over Y Garn in the summer.

    Several on the Cambrian Way, walk it and find them!
    Don't roll with a pig in poo. You get covered in poo and the pig likes it.

    My Cambrian Way journey included a night on Cadair Idris. I understand that makes me a madman or a poet. I have never written a poem...

    I will not divulge my favourite on the CW - as Molehill says, walk it and find them!

    One of my favourite places is by the loch at Ungashader on Lewis, it involves a good long walk in and you just have red deer for company and the occasional watcher. Also Luskintyre on Harris. In fact most of my favourite wild camping spots are in the outer Hebrides although the banks of Loch Sunart at Arnamurchan is another.

    For non-wild camping, we've just had a brilliant few days at Red Squirrel campsite in Glencoe and Applecross campsite and I love the camping next to the bothy on North Uist, swimming with seals before breakfast

    I dunno, in the pissing rain beside the 'no camping' sign in the car park at Dale on the Pembrokeshire coast path was a top spot too

    Happy days!

    That little bay at Trefin was pretty good though.

    Codale tarn is a nice spot, with views to the east theres a chance you will see sunrise. Last time I was up there we saw the moon rise over kirkstone pass - very eerie. Maybe it was the effect of the alcohol we took up there with us.
    See the light in the night
