<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\nWhen you are planning for a camping trip there are many things you’re going to need. Here I have listed things which you might need. From my experience forgetting a little thing might ruin your whole camping experience, so don\u2019t forget to brainstorm the things you might need.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I have divided the list into must get it and optional. The must are the things you\u2019re going to need the most. while the optional things you might need.<\/span> I hope you will find the list helpful.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/th> Tent<\/th> RV<\/th><\/tr><\/thead> Sleeping bag<\/td> \u2714<\/td> \u2718<\/td><\/tr> stove<\/td> –<\/td> –<\/td><\/tr> backpack<\/td> \u2714 <\/td> –<\/td><\/tr> knife<\/td> \u2714<\/td> \u2714<\/td><\/tr> compass<\/td> –<\/td> –<\/td><\/tr> sleeping pad<\/td> \u2714<\/td> \u2718<\/td><\/tr> tarp<\/td> –<\/td> –<\/td><\/tr> heater<\/td> –<\/td> –<\/td><\/tr> tool kit<\/td> \u2718<\/td> \u2714<\/td><\/tr> cord<\/td> \u2714<\/td> \u2714<\/td><\/tr> hammock<\/td> –<\/td> –<\/td><\/tr> light source<\/td> \u2714<\/td> –<\/td><\/tr> stake<\/td> \u2714<\/td> \u2718<\/td><\/tr> cooking material<\/td> \u2714<\/td> \u2714<\/td><\/tr> power bank<\/td> \u2714<\/td> –<\/td><\/tr> GPS<\/td> \u2714<\/td> \u2714<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<\/th> Cabin<\/th> primitive<\/th><\/tr><\/thead> anti-bacteria<\/td> –<\/td> \u2714 <\/td><\/tr> water filter<\/td> –<\/td> \u2714 <\/td><\/tr> knife<\/td> \u2714 <\/td> \u2714 <\/td><\/tr> hammock<\/td> –<\/td> \u2718 <\/td><\/tr> GPS <\/td> \u2718 <\/td> \u2714 <\/td><\/tr> backpack<\/td> \u2714 <\/td> –<\/td><\/tr> matches<\/td> \u2718 <\/td> –<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<\/span>Gears all camper needs<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\nFirst aid kit<\/strong>– Having a first aid kit while camping and hiking is a must. Anything might happen so it is good to be careful, you might trip, or you may bleed from something so it\u2019s wise to get a basic first aid kit. When I say basic I mean like bandages, pain and anti-inflammatory medicine, tweezers, scissors, safety pins. And optionally you can bring sunscreen, hand sanitizer, wipes and many things of your choice.<\/li>Water filter<\/strong>– You might be out of water while you\u2019re camping so you might need a water filter. There are water filters specifically designed for camping, you can easily fit them into your backpack. And they have a reasonable price so is good to get one for yourself.<\/li>GPS<\/strong>– This is a must when you go camping or hiking because you go out of track and get lost so these will help you to track your way back. You need these especially if you are going to a primitive camping or tent camping it is a must.<\/li>Phone<\/strong>– Your phone is very important for many things and one of them is for emergency cases anything might happen so it is also another thing that you have to have.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<\/span>Tent camping essentials<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\nSleeping bag<\/strong>– It\u2019s obvious that you have to get a sleeping bag when you\u2019re planning to go out on a camping trip. Depending on the place you are going and what makes you the most comfortable you can choose any sleeping bag from Walmart or any online store. When choosing a sleeping bag you will have to check its temperature rating and some other factors like quality. The best thing when buying a sleeping bag is there are many companies to choose from so just make sure to get the best price and the best quality.<\/li>Tent<\/strong>– Tents are another must when camping I mean if it\u2019s not RV camping. Tents might be a little expensive depending on what you want, but there are many low priced tents the only thing you have to check is their quality because there are many cheap priced tents with very low quality. The big tip am going to give you is buy a big tent, I mean if you are alone, buy a 2 person tent, if you are 2 buy a 3 person tent and so on because of false advertising if it sold for a 4 people tent it is going to be hard to fit 4 people. So be careful about that<\/li>Camping stove<\/strong>– Stoves might be optional depending on what you want to eat. If you want to eat fresh food you might want a stove if you don\u2019t want to get stove you can eat dehydrated food or snacks. but it is not a secret that fresh food is healthier and tastes better than packed food so it is nice if you get on for yourself. are camping stoves expensive? depending on what you want you can get them from $45 to $300 or more.<\/li>Sleeping pad<\/strong>– Sleeping with just a sleeping bag might be very uncomfortable so you most likely need a sleeping pad. Sleeping pad comes with many varieties, like air-filled sleeping pads and sponge sleeping pads and so on don\u2019t get overwhelmed by the different choices the sellers will give you just pick the most suitable for you. I suggest you get air sleeping pads I found them the most comfortable and they don\u2019t need big space not to forget they have a very small weight. What about their price? not bad, you can get any air sleeping pad for under $25 and depending on the sleeping pad you want you can get them for a reasonable price, but you might get premium ones for over $150.<\/li>Light source<\/strong>– This not big like the others but don\u2019t underestimate the effect it will have on your camping trip daylight doesn\u2019t stay 24 hrs so you need light source at night. You might need to go to the restroom or your tent might be leaking and you need to fix it anything might happen so trust me you need some kind of light it might be a torch or a lamp. It is good to have a solar rechargeable one because you might run out of power. I don\u2019t think I need to comment on the price it depends on what you want you might get very cheap or very expensive.<\/li>Camping pillow<\/strong>– personally I don\u2019t sleep with pillows, but that‘<\/span>s me you most likely need a pillow. There are many models you can choose from, so what you have choose have to be lightweight, comfortable and reasonably priced. You can find camping pillows for $10 or more.<\/li>Camping chair and table<\/strong>– This is also not a must but I bet you will find them necessary, they will make your camping trip comfier. You can eat and play games on them and you need a place to rest.<\/li>Tarpaulin<\/strong>– if you don’t know what they are, tarps are protective sheets which you can use as a tent and also as a cover for your tent they are usually made from stretchy materials and covered with polyester coated with polyurethane.<\/li>Tent stakes<\/strong>– if you have ever been to a camping trip before you know what these are if not they are tiny made from metal with a hook at the top end which is used to hold your tent in place.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<\/span>RV camping essentials<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\nExtra car battery<\/strong>– Imagine if your battery died while you are 10miles far from any kind of civilization it would be a complete nightmare. So it is nice if you have an extra battery.<\/li>Fire extinguisher<\/strong>– It is a car you are driving and so you know fire might happen which can burn the car into unusable trash and it can even start forest fire if it is not under control for a long time so it is a must that you have one.<\/li>Tire pressure monitoring<\/strong>– I love this technology it is a handy and inexpensive item you must-have for your RV. If you don’t what a tire pressure monitoring system is, it is an electrical system designed to control the presser and gives alert when something unusual happens.<\/li>Tool kit<\/strong>– You might not be super handy nor am I but you have to have some kits like a screwdriver, a hammer, and some other accessories.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<\/span>cabin camping essentials<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\nfood<\/strong>– some cabins are equipped with a cooking place and utensils and most cabin rentals provide breakfast. you have two choices: one is to cook the other is to bring ready-made foods, personally, I love cooking and I would rather eat fresh food if you are also like me take a recipe book and your recipes with you.<\/li>water filter<\/strong>– this is also another necessity for cabin camping some cabins do have water supply and some don’t but it is wise to have a water filter.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<\/span>Optional things you can take for your camping trip:<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\nKnife<\/strong>– You might use it for cutting things which you often do while camping.<\/li>Cooler<\/strong>– It will help you to keep your food for longer which is very important if you are planning a long time stay.<\/li>Cords<\/strong>– Cords are multipurpose and they don\u2019t hold big space and they have infinite use from stretching your tarp to tying sticks for different purposes.<\/li>Water bucket<\/strong>– You might want to hold water especially if there is a good source of water in your campground you might end up using gallons of water every day but that is impossible if you don’t have a bucket.<\/li>Camping fork<\/strong>– you need this if you are going to do a barbecue.<\/li>Hammock<\/strong>– You will have a good time on them and they are not expensive so why not.<\/li>
