Dear LLTNPA,

I spotted these tents at Bein Glas campsite on Sunday 26th June at 9.30 am.  They looked abandoned to me and sure enough they were still there late afternoon.   When you published all those photos of abandoned tents by the lochshores you implied that banning camping outwith controlled areas would stop these problems – that’s clearly untrue.   Campsite owners still have to clear up mess or belongings left by a small minority of campers and so should the National Park Authority instead of trying to remove the rights of the responsible majority.

Incidentally could the LLNTPA not arrange for any abandoned camping equipment that is still useable to be sent to organisations working with refugees?

Happy camping!
