The recent warm, dry weather has led to an increase in wildfires that are devastating to wildlife and habitats. 🔥🚒

With the sunshine set to continue over the weekend, we’re asking countryside visitors not to light fires or fly-camp. ❌🔥

1/4🧵

Disposable BBQs are the cause of many wildfires. They should only be used at designated places where signs allow them, then be disposed of responsibly after the ashes are cold. 🚮

Fly-camping is staying overnight in vehicles or tents without the landowners’ permission. It increases the risk of starting wildfires from campfires, BBQs and discarded litter. 🚐⛺

If you are planning on camping in #Wales, please book ahead at an official campsite to protect the countryside. 📲

Enjoy the great outdoors responsibly by following the #CountrysideCode
