Tent camping can be a great way to enjoy the outdoors with friends and family. With a little preparation, you can make sure your trip is fun and safe for everyone involved.
RV camping
RV camping is a type of camping in which people use recreational vehicles to sleep in and travel to different campsites. This type of camping can be done in a variety of ways, from renting an RV and driving it to your campsite, to towing a camper behind your car, or even just sleeping in your car at a campsite.
Backpacking
Backpacking is a form of camping in which participants carry all necessary gear on their backs, in contrast to car camping or base camping, where participants drive to a campsite and set up camp.
Car camping
Car camping is the most popular type of camping in North America. It is also known as roadside camping. You drive your vehicle to the campsite and park it next to your tent. Car camping sites are usually close to amenities such as bathrooms and picnic tables. Some campsites have hookups for electricity and water.
Glamping
Glamping is a combination of glamour and camping and is great for those who love the outdoors but don’t want to sacrifice their creature comforts. Glamping sites are often located in stunning natural locations like near a lake or in the woods, and they usually have amenities like electricity, furnished tents or cabins, and sometimes even private bathrooms.
Canoe camping
Canoe camping is a type of camping in which participants travel by canoe instead of by foot or car. Canoe camping offers a unique opportunity to explore waterways and to camp in remote locations that are inaccessible by other means. Canoe campers typically portage, or carry, their canoes and gear overland between lakes or rivers. Canoe camping is an adventurous way to enjoy the outdoors and can be rewarding for both novice and experienced campers.
Bike camping
Bike camping is a sub-category of camping in which cyclists use their bicycles as primary transportation to their camp site as well as using camping gear strapped to their bicycles.
Winter camping
Winter camping is a type of camping in which one takes advantage of the winter season to enjoy the outdoors, often with activities such as cross-country skiing or snowshoeing. It is important to be prepared for the cold weather when winter camping, as hypothermia and frostbite are real dangers.
