In the heart of Edinburgh, the fastest animal in the world – the peregrine falcon, now graces the sky on a daily basis. A pair have recently started raising a family here, an example of this flagship species’ return from the brink of extinction in the 1960s. Further out in the suburbs, other animals are adapting to the urban environment too. By the Water of Leith, a family of foxes have made a home, their tiny cubs starting to explore the world outside their den, learning the skills needed for independence. But there’s still plenty of time for play. Across the central belt in Glasgow, lives a hardy colony of water voles, nowhere near water. They are the only population known to live in burrows in open grassland anywhere in the UK, and were only discovered here in 2008, initially thought to be rats. Further North lies Scotland’s longest river, the Tay, journeying for over 100 miles from source to Sea. As it passes the mighty Tay Reedbed, the river slows and widens dramatically. The reedbed stretches for more than 20 miles along the north shore here and is home to Scotland’s largest population of the rare bearded tit, which only arrived here in the early 1990s. Further upstream in Perth, Scotland’s first urban population of beavers can now be found. These industrious rodents have recently returned from extinction, after an absence of over 400 years. More than 1000 of them can now be found throughout the Tay catchment, shaping wetlands that are teeming with life though also sometimes coming into conflict with farmers.

Both Stagecoach and Citylink operate regular bus services to Aviemore. You can reach Aviemore via the Express Coaches from London Victoria and all over the country, or there is also a Scottish Citylink bus service which has limited stops at the park. Even if you don’t have a self-contained unit and you just want to experience what wild camping is all about, it’s a good idea to just give it a go for one night. Is it safe to wild camp in Scotland? From the Shetland Isles in the North to the Inner Hebrides in the South, these isles are teeming with life. In the North-West, sitting low in the Atlantic, are the remote Monach Isles, they’ve been uninhabited since the 1940s when the last people left these shores. And now every autumn the white sand beaches host the largest breeding colony of grey seals in Europe. More than 10,000 pups are born each year and they have just a few short weeks to get ready for independence. We were protected by the wind, the spot was quiet, and there is room for 2 or 3 vans.

Best wild camping spots near Stirling

This is one of the best wild camping spots in Loch Lomond because it’s been set up for motorhomes and campervans. Scotland is a big place and there are a few ways to find great wild camping spots across the country. There is room for 5-10 vans, but because this place is popular with locals for dog walking, I would recommend leaving early in the morning so you aren’t taking up valuable parking space for them. There are the Forestry Commission area and the non-forestry Commission area which is right by the lake.
