Ultralight Wildcamping on St Cuthbert’s Way | THE START! - Day One

Join me on one of Scotland’s Great Trails. 65-miles along St Cuthbert’s Wat. Starting at Melrose Abbey in the Scottish Borders and finishing on the tidal island of Lindisfarne (Holy Island), this long-distance hike takes me through farmland, open moorland, rolling hills, and incredible wild camping spots. I’m carrying an ultralight wild camping setup, keeping my pack weight down for faster miles and more freedom on the trail. I battled tough terrain, changing weather, and some unexpected events — but the rewards were unforgettable views and a true sense of adventure. If you’re interested in lightweight backpacking gear, wild camping in the UK, or planning your own St Cuthbert’s Way, this series is for you.
