Call it what you like – a microadventure, mountain bike overnighter or just an off-road escape! Bikepacking on Dartmoor is unique in the UK (or more accurately England) as it’s the only place where wild camping is actually allowed. In this video, i ride most of the Dartmoor route from the book ‘Bikepacking England’ on my hardtail mountain bike. Whilst it could be ridden on a gravel bike, the mtb makes more sense

Morning! 🌻
Great looking camp spot 🚲⛺👌
Thanks!
Amazing! Looking beautiful Juliet!
Beautiful route around War Horse country 😊
Not sure about that scone protocol though
Good recommendations for books thanks! 🙂 looked a lovely camping spot and very envious of that mountain bike!
Should always be Jam 1st 😮😂
What a lovely neck of the woods you live in… love Devon!
We managed to get some wild swimming in near AUPS in France after visiting the Verdun Gorge. The river water was freezing but given the high 34 degrees temps it was excellent! Joy.
*oh that cream tes looks the best. I love that. #1 tea.
Nice of England to pick a beautiful place to allow wild camping.
Looks like an amazing ride. What's your tire width? I was surprised when you said you're not on a mountain bike!
Good video but the music's a bit intrusive
Thanks for sharing Juliet, when I lived in Cornwall Dartmoor was my favourite getaway – and you reminded me why I love the place – just a little different than Oregon!
Oh my god why is the UK so utterly beautiful. I keep saying that on many of your videos, but I promise one day I HAVE to go bikepacking there.
Loved the music, very chilled
🤘👌🚲Very nice 🌷
Great Video well enjoyed it, you could do the same route on your EMTB 😉
Good morning. I am a new subscriber in your channel. Nice to see you. My dear
👍
Evening!
Fabulous ride – thanks for posting. Dartmoor is absolutely my favourite place ❤
Route looks really lovely – glad you mentioned sending the route to someone "just in case". I sometimes forget this and know I'd feel pretty stupid if anything were to happen.
Love this!
Two things:
Get a flextail pump for the sleeping pad. You wont regret it!
Please bring back your ill fated series of the cake stops and reviews! Even if one a year😎
Talk about a bikepacking trip, well done ! Quite the abrupt ending..lol
