Wild Walk Index

I choose to define a Wild Walk as a multi-day unsupported walk which relies on a wild camp to make it possible. Such walks open up routes not readily possible if you have to return to a road end or campsite at the end of each day. I have valued the indexes of others, especially the Backpacking in Britain site written by V & G over the past 20 years.
