Here is a backpacking gear load out with all the hiking gear and camping gear I took with me to complete the Cumbria Way. I completed the 78 miles thru hiking trail in 3 days so I took ultralight backpacking gear with me.

The backpacking kit and wild camping gear I took is listed below:

I buy my 3F UL Gear tents from Camperlists who stock all variants. All prices includes VAT and Duty and they're all genuine unlike many copies on AliExpress and Amazon.
