I think author slept at some cottage every night. Taking sandwiches on through hike without resuply does not seem very practical..
I did wild camping in Scotland long time ago, but I would not recommend it today. Locals are not so welcoming now.
- pmyteh 3y agoIt's quite normal to stay in pubs and B&Bs doing the Coast to Coast - that's how my wife and I did it for our honeymoon. Wild camping is not lawful on any(?) part of the route, and organised camp sites are relatively scarce for most of it. Plus it's a pretty unusual through hike. It goes through three national parks, but it's nowhere wilderness and you're never more than about 10 route miles from a village. Resupply en route is fairly trivial.
- OJFord 3y agoGlobally unusual do you mean? I can't imagine where in England that would not be true.
- pmyteh 3y agoYeah, globally. Most long distance hikes seem to be a few hundred miles of mostly majestic wilderness, while the C2C is an unusually lovely and varied walk strung together from local footpaths...
- OJFord 3y agoIt's a small and densely populated country. Twice the population of Canada over a fourtieth of the area. Scotland has a places a bit more like 'majestic wilderness', so that goes even more so for England. If you want a pub walk though, no better place in the world!
