    Hilltop Overlooking A Castle, Dorset | Dutch Army Hooped Bivvi

    Early July 2024

    I’ve been wanting to camp here for a long time and I finally got around to it just before the busy summer holidays.

    I bedded down in the soft long grass with a view of the castle. I camped on this hill as opposed to the other because I wanted to catch the sunrise from behind the castle. Due to the cloud, that didn’t…

    Chalk Cliff Tops, Jurassic Coast Dorset | Dutch Army Hooped Bivvi Camp

    7th July 2023

    An awesome solo bivi camp on a dull and windy night. I’ve walked this section of the SW Coastal path many times and I’ve always wanted to camp here.

    On a spur of the moment thing, I took the opportunity on an overcast Friday evening.

    Views east, west and south didn’t get boring or disappoint. This place was lovely…
