>>1044415Did the GR11 with some variations through the HRP (a trail that goes mostly between the GR11 and GR10 and tries to follow the highest path possible).
I wild camped most of the way. never had an issue even when camping just outside villages or refuges (I did ask for permission if I was literally in their back yard, happened once).
Generally, and it's true for most of Europe, as long as you camp late, and up and packed early. No one gives a fuck.
>do any of these trails get to experience any decent "wilderness" as far as being away from any type of civilization?There is indeed some wilderness. Less so near the coasts, and way way more people in the national parks you pass through. Indeed for the GR11, the parts before and after Andorra are some of the least traveled and populated areas.
As wild as Europe gets, perhaps aside from the Nordics.
>>1044942>It's illegal here in Spain, tho legislation changes from one autonomous community to other so check for the ones your gonna go throughDidn't have a problem camping anywhere, though I guess in the national parks you are supposed to camp by the refuges or out of park boundaries.
>>1044959I hitchhiked some, to towns and back multiple times without an issue. but no long distance hitch hiking.
