There’s something about that sound of the tent door opening after a hike. ⛺️

Although I probably should have given the inside of the tent a good hoover before this trip! 😂

The Robens Pioneer 2EX is one of my favourites for wild camping because of the space it gives you inside. Plenty of room to relax, get the kit out and keep everything nice and organised.

Keeping this camp simple, and honestly, the simple camps are usually the best camps.

Rucksack off and time to get camp set up. 🎒⛺️

Tent of choice is the Robens Pioneer 2EX, and we’ve found a near-perfect pitch on Slemish.

There’s a slight slope, but I think we can live with that. We are on a mountain after all! 😂

Not a bad place to call home for the evening.

There’s something satisfying about finally getting that rucksack off your back. 🎒

It may have been a relatively short climb, but it’s always a good feeling when you reach camp and can put the bag down.

Tent of choice is the Robens Pioneer 2EX, and we’ve found ourselves a pretty decent pitch on Slemish.

There is a slight slope… but hey, we are camping on a mountain! 😂

Time to get the tent up and enjoy the evening.

Summit of Slemish reached. ⛰️

It took us around 25 minutes to get to the top, and just as we arrived the sun started breaking through.

The views were opening up all around us, making the climb well worth it.

First time on Slemish for Stephen and myself, and so far we were liking what we were seeing.

Next job… find that perfect pitch for the evening.

25 minutes from the start and we’ve reached the summit of Slemish. ⛰️

The sun started breaking through just as we reached the top, and the views began opening up in every direction.

Not a bad welcome to a mountain neither Stephen nor myself had climbed before.

But now we had another decision to make…

Where do we find that perfect pitch for the evening? 👀

Slemish Mountain in the Antrim Hills. ⛰️

Another wild camping adventure with Stephen, but this time somewhere completely new for both of us.

The walk in from the car park gets straight to business, heading upwards for roughly a mile towards our camp.

It’s always good exploring somewhere neither of us has been before.

A new mountain for Stephen and myself… Slemish Mountain in the Antrim Hills. ⛰️

We’ve never been here before, so neither have you seen us take on this one before.

The walk from the car park starts with a serious bit of climbing, with roughly a mile heading upwards towards our camp.

No easing ourselves into this one!

Another wild camping adventure begins. 👀

Have you climbed Slemish?

Leave No Trace And Head Home 🏕️⛰️

The tents are down, the rucksacks are packed and our pitch has been left exactly as we found it.

You could easily stay up there all morning when the sun is shining, but it’s time to head home.

On the way down we met Keith, Darren and James, who were starting their 7 Sevens Challenge. A great achievement and it was lovely to have a chat about their plans and experiences on the hills.

It’s always good meeting people outdoors and sharing a few stories along the way.

Leave no trace, look after the mountains and have a good day.

Thanks for coming along on this magical wild camp. See you’s on the next one. 👋

Breaking Camp And Leaving No Trace 🏕️⛰️

Probably the most important part of the whole wild camp.

It’s time to pack everything away, clean up our pitch and leave no trace behind.

When the sun is shining and the views are like this, you could easily stay up here all morning, but eventually it’s time to head home.

On the way down, Stephen and I bumped into a group starting their 7 Sevens Challenge. A fantastic achievement ahead of them, and it was great having a chat with Keith, Darren and James about the hills and their experiences.

That’s one of the great things about being outdoors. You never know who you’re going to meet, and it’s always nice to share a few thoughts and stories along the way.

Leave no trace, look after the hills and have a good day.

See you’s on the next one. 👋

Thanks for coming along on this magical wild camp on Slieve Binnian.

Breakfast With A View 🥣☕️⛰️

After an early start for sunrise, it’s time to get some food into us.

Porridge pot, Freddo bar and a cup of tea. That’ll do nicely.

Then it’s time to relax for a few minutes and watch the world go by from above before finishing off with a power juice shot to really get the blood going. 😂💥

A pretty special place to start the day.
