[Closed] Anyone got or done any good bivi trips in the Lake District

High or low?
North, South, East or west?
The possibilities are pretty endless!

Did this last year:

Day 1 Ambleside to Boot with the night at Burnmoor Lodge:

To be honest, I wouldn't plan a route / bivvy places in much detail. Go with a rough plan in mind but take a map and make it up the detail as you go along. In The Lakes you're rarely more than a couple of hours from civilisation if you suddenly need to bail out or get hungry / thirsty / wet.

Angle Tarn above Patterdale has a lovely little peninsula, which is perfect for camping or bivvying.

Cheers guys I like the idea of the map and see what happens.

Angle Tarn is a cracking spot

STW did a mag feature the other year.

Windermere to Keswick is a good route with plenty of options for high or low and places to camp.

Wast water is a cracking place to wake up.
