Helm Compact One | Hints and Tips | Wild Camping
Back out in the Helm compact one this week, Stephen has pitched up in his Lanshan 2 tent. On this weeks outdoor adventure I decide to break down the camp into hints and tips on how to make wildcamping easy.
Stephen has scouted out a perfect spot for the evening on Percy Bysshe just overlooking the town of Annalong and nestled in between Slieve Binnian and Slieve Lamagan.
A massive thank you to @stephensophietracygrace626 for producing this weeks thumbnail.

My advice would be to do the hike we done but on the way back down do as much of the st Kevin’s trail as possible, we stumbled across it on the way back down but missed half of it, you get some amazing views down into glendalough from there.

    Thanks for taking me down memory lane! Been there a few times with visitors and friends and definitely better with good weather and crowds. Not sure how a wild camper like yourself can have fears!! I'm not great with heights either but the bridge for me was no problem. Were NT members so for us it's free but £15.50 is ridiculous, fiver would be fair. We parked last time in Larrybaine so looks like they don't use that any more. Games of Thrones is not for the faint hearted, brutal, and violent but it brings in tourism up there, coach loads of followers. Ballintoy Harbour is really special though and the cafe is good! Great video, Geoff, but different, but good! Regards, Ashley
