Leave No Trace: seven habits for happy hosts and happy guests

Hosts rely on guests to look after their land; guests rely on hosts to share it. The seven Leave No Trace principles keep it that way.

• Plan ahead and prepare: know the rules and carry what you need.
• Travel and camp on durable surfaces such as marked pitches and paths.
• Dispose of waste properly: pack it in, pack it out, and never empty grey water into streams.
• Leave what you find: shells, plants and fruit stay where they grow.
• Minimise campfire impact: use fire pits and buy firewood locally.
• Respect wildlife: observe from a distance and never feed animals.
• Be considerate of other visitors: keep noise down and share the view.

Leave the pitch cleaner than you found it, and the host will be waiting with a smile next time.
