Camping season is here. When you’re out on the trails, it’s almost always best to keep your kit as simple and light as possible. If you’re a newbie to the great outdoors, or you’re trying to convince yourself to give camping a shot, these products can make roughing it just a little less rough.
Maybe it’s because you’re always hungry after a day of hiking, swimming or canoeing, but there’s nothing like a great camp meal. You don’t want to lug around your heavy everyday kitchen supplies to your campsite so keep things light with a camp cooking kit which packs everything you need.
After a pre-dawn wakeup, there’s nothing better than coming back to camp for a nap. After hours of basking in the hot sun, the inside of your tent can feel like a car in a parking lot. Up your game with a camping hammock like the ENO. Paired with excellent straps, you can set it up between a pair of nearby trees, hop in, then drift off to sleep.
If you’re a hiking to stay fit and healthy, it’s great to have something that tracks your progress. TomTom’s new Adventurer is a health-tracking watch purpose built for the outdoors. It has a durable design, on-board music storage, long battery life and GPS connectivity. Pairing it with TomTom’s app offers insights about your hikes, from a mapped route to altitude gains and drops.
Chances are your campsite won’t have built-in seating and it’s unlikely you’ll want to sit on the floor. Put a few REI Flex Lite chairs around the campfire and grab a bag of marshmallows. The chairs are incredibly light, making them ideal for camping.
