How to unlock the Night Walker achievement in The Long Dark - Definitive Guide

This is really quite simple (depending on difficulty), but the most important thing to remember is to make camp somewhere where you are protected from the wind, so that your campfire won't die out. Gather enough lumber and food, and you have food, water from snow, and warmth and safety from the fire.

15 sticks and 5 cloth will let you create a snow shelter from the campcraft menu, this helps a lot against cold, but you still need to camp out of the wind. If the wind turns, just move camp.

Another good tip is to bring coffee (or tea, if you don't have coffee). This will warm you up and reduce your fatigue.

Also: You don't need to camp far out in the wilderness; just outside your home base is just fine, in case you're worried that things might get rough.

Go find a cave and camp there for the night. Not much else to it.

As long as the place isn't indoors (needing a loading screen to enter) or any of the watch towers, you should be good

Spend a full night outside. You don't have to sleep but you can, though do note that caves doesn't count as being outside. If you decide to sleep outside in an unknown area, sleep against the wall and make a fire between you and the map to hold off wild animals. You will get this during the nomad challenge as one of the locations you have to visit is outside.

You just need to not sleep, if you sleep, they won’t count, I advise you to collect firewood at night, go fishing, etc., and sleep during the day)!
PS You can't go into houses!

You can sleep. The point of the trophy is to spend the night outside the shelter.
