Owning the Wilderness: The Latest and Greatest Camping Gear and Gadgets

Travel Tips - Ross French - February 2, 2017

Camping is one of the most enjoyable ways to spend your time. Head out into the wilds, pitch up your tent and be at one with nature.

But these days, camping involves taking lots of gear and gadgets to make the experience more comfortable. If you want to camp in comfort, here are some of the best items you can take with you on your next camping trip.

Portable Air Conditioning Unit

Camping can sometimes be uncomfortable, especially if you are trying to get to sleep in a hot tent in the middle of summer. That’s where a portable AC unit can come in handy. There are a few models to choose from, and they come with powerful battery packs so there is no need for a generator. Some even double up as gadget chargers. It’s not the sort of thing you want to carry in your backpack, but it could be useful if you’re taking the car.

Fold-Up Shower

If you’re camping out in the back of beyond, getting a good shower is not easy, so take one with you. Fold-up showers have been around for a while, but the latest models are better than ever.

This Sea to Summit pocket shower could be just what you need. It weighs only 4.25 ounces, it’s tiny enough to fit in your pocket, and it provides up to eight minutes of showering.

Mobile Phone

Most people would never want to be far from their phones these days, and the same is true when you go camping. You can use your phone to call for help in emergencies and keep in touch with people back home.

But you can also use it to get access to useful apps. For example, you could download this weather app to get up-to-date weather forecasts or a GPS app to navigate your new terrain.

Solar-Powered Charger

If you’re taking your phone with you, or any gadgets for that matter, keeping them charged is a challenge. That’s where a solar-powered charger becomes essential. Get one of these, and you never have to worry about powering up your phone again.

Portable Sink

Washing up your pots and pans can be less convenient when you are camping, but a portable sink can help. These days you can buy a fold-up sink that you can fill up with water when you need to use it. It will stay sturdy when in use and can fold up small when you don’t need it.

Wind-Up Radio

You might not be able to access the internet, but you can still pick up radio signals. So take along a wind-up radio and you’ll be able to listen to the news and even some songs wherever you are, and you won’t have to worry about it running out of power. Some wind-up radios also work as torches or lanterns, like this one.

Camp in Comfort

These are some of the gadgets that you might want to take with you on your next camping trip. New gadgets are coming out all the time, and they can make the experience of camping a lot more enjoyable, and certainly more comfortable. So go shopping for gadgets and see what you can find to make your camping trips more enjoyable from now on.
