this months C+CC mag has run an artical about a proposed ban on wild camping in certain parts of scotland.
i believe this is aimed at tenters but may also apply to wildcamping motorhomes in some situations.
the national parks authority have proposed the ban in response to the amount of abandoned camping gear and rubbish left by a minority of tent campers.
they will be providing informal campsites as a replacement for the present scottish outdoor access code which allows people to camp freely practicaly anywhere in scotland.
if the ban comes into force the first affected areas will be Sallochy Bay, Balmaha and Rowardennan early next year followed by lochs Lubnaig and Venachar by 2011.
