What is backpack or wild camping?
If you can carry everything you need in your backpack as part of a Dartmoor walking expedition, you are welcome to backpack camp for one or two nights in some areas of open moorland, and out of sight from roads or settlements using a ‘no impact’ approach.
Planning and preparation is essential for this type of activity. This includes having the right equipment and navigational skills to survive safely ‘well away from civilisation’, and crucially, knowing where it is possible and best to camp. However you cannot camp everywhere in the National Park. It's vital that you know where it is best to go before setting off.

- 1. This case is about the extent of the public’s right of access to Dartmoor under section 10(1) of the Dartmoor Commons Act 1985 (“the 1985 Act”). The question the court has to decide is whether section 10(1) confers on the public a right to pitch tents or otherwise make camp overnight on the Dartmoor Commons (“the Commons”).
[…]
- 17. The starting point is the wording of section 10(1) itself. There are several indications that wild camping by individuals who have entered the commons on foot or on horseback is made a matter of entitlement by that provision. […]
(i) Section 10(1) states that “the public shall have a right of access to the commons on foot and on horseback for the purpose of open-air recreation”. In our view, as a matter of ordinary language, camping is a form of “open-air recreation”. Therefore, the provision confers on members of the public a right of access to the Commons, provided that it is exercised by going onto the Commons on foot or on horseback, for the purpose of camping there. […]
(ii) The right in section 10(1) is expressed to be subject to the provisions of the 1985 Act and compliance with all rules, regulations or byelaws relating to the Commons which are in force. […] The public right of access under section 10(1) is qualified by the requirement of compliance with those forms of public regulations, so non-compliance with them triggers the possibility of landowners being able to sue in trespass. […]
[…]
- 60. For the reasons set out above, we would dismiss the appeal.

B. Provisions concerning public access to commons
- 10.— (1) Subject to the provisions of this Act and compliance with all rules, regulations or byelaws relating to the commons and for the time being in force, the public shall have a right of access to the commons on foot and on horseback for the purpose of open-air recreation; and a person who enters on the commons for that purpose without breaking or damaging any wall, fence, hedge, gate or other thing, or who is on the commons for that purpose having so entered, shall not be treated as a trespasser on the commons or incur any other liability by reason only of so entering or being on the commons.
[…]
(4) Nothing in this section shall prejudice or affect the exercise of powers under any enactment whereby access to the commons may be regulated or prohibited; and, subject to subsection (8) below, the Park Authority may by notices posted in such places on the commons as they think fit regulate or prohibit for such period as may be reasonably necessary access by all, or any part of, the public to any part of the commons (including any footpath or bridleway thereon)—
