Camping packing list: With these essentials you are ready for your next camping adventure
Camping season is just around the corner! With our camping packing list, you'll be ready for your next camping trip! What should you absolutely have in mind to fully enjoy the tranquility of nature? Whether it's a tent, sleeping bag, gas grill, or emergency gear—in this article, you'll find all the essentials you need for your next camping trip.
Tent – there’s something for everyone
For campers traveling without a motorhome or caravan, a reliable tent is essential! It offers protection from wind, weather, and, last but not least, insects. To ensure your tent is spacious enough, it's a good idea to choose a larger model. If you're traveling with two people, a three-person tent is best. Late risers and those sensitive to light are best served by a Coleman tent with BlackOut Bedroom™ technology. Especially for longer camping trips, it's a good idea to choose a larger tent with separate sleeping and living areas. This provides a sheltered spot in bad weather. Don't forget to pack a hammer—otherwise, it will be difficult to peg the tent!
Without an air mattress it will be uncomfortable
Camping doesn't mean having to forgo a good night's sleep! To ensure nights in a tent don't become torture, you need the right equipment. An air mattress is the best choice for ensuring a good night's rest at the campsite. For those who want to make things extra cozy, it's best to pack a fitted sheet for the air mattress. Important: Don't forget your air pump and always check that all the valves are still connected!
Sleeping bag – because nobody likes to freeze
Even in summer, it can get really cold at night, especially when you're hiking in the mountains. But don't worry, with the right sleeping bag, you won't have to freeze! A Coleman blanket sleeping bag offers extra space and can easily be used as a blanket if it gets too warm.
Camping chairs are indispensable
Whether you're sitting around the campfire or just want to relax and read a book, you need one to make yourself comfortable at camp! Especially luxurious models also have a cup holder and even a practical storage area. Most camping chairs are foldable and easy to transport. They're also made of robust, weather-resistant material and can be left out in the rain without a problem.
Camping cuisine: gas grill
Grilling and camping simply belong together! With a portable gas grill, you can conjure up delicious meals even in the great outdoors. Especially practical: The grills from the Campingaz Party Grill™ line are not only perfect for grilling, but can also be used as a gas stove and, thanks to the lid, can even be used like an oven. Flip the lid over and you have a wok ready for use!
Cooler box – always fresh on the go
A good cooler is a fundamental part of camping equipment. It keeps grilled food, drinks, and everything else you need for a tasty camping meal cool. If you want to be popular with your neighbors at the campsite, you should opt for an electric cooler with a quiet night mode. Even if you don't have electricity at the campsite, you can keep your drinks and food fresh with a passive cooler. Unlike actively cooled versions powered by electricity, your food stays fresh thanks to their special, thermally insulated construction. They work best when combined with ice-cold ice packs.
Let there be light
To find your way in the dark, you need light! A proper camping lamp makes camp especially cozy at night. It's also a good idea to pack a headlamp for the nighttime walk to the washroom.
Safety first, a first aid kit is a must!
Even if it's ideally never needed, a first aid kit should be with you on every outdoor activity. In addition to bandages, gauze pads, first aid bandages, and safety pins, such a kit should also contain small scissors, tweezers, and alcohol wipes or other disinfectant. If you have room, you can also pack an emergency blanket and some cough drops. Since you often spend the entire day outdoors while camping, it's especially important to have sunscreen with a high SPF.
Prepared for everything: camping toilet
If there aren't any restrooms nearby, or if you simply need to use them urgently, it's good to be prepared. With a portable camping toilet, you don't have to go without your own private restroom even on your camping trip.
A well-thought-out packing list is the key to a successful camping adventure! With the right essentials, you'll be prepared for unforeseen situations, and nothing will stand in the way of a stress-free outdoor vacation. Whether you're traveling alone or with family and friends, a well-organized packing list will help you make the most of your outdoor adventure.
