wild camping
Tent without campgrounds
Wild camping is camping outside of designated campgrounds, typically on public land or wilderness areas without formal facilities.
The practice is legal in some countries and regions, restricted in others.
Wild camping appeals to those seeking solitude and self-reliance: We wild camped along the trail for three nights.
Also called backcountry camping or dispersed camping.
