Places to camp
What nicer method of experiencing the beautiful nature than camping in the summer when the weather is sunny and pleasant? We look at the best places to camp that every outdoor enthusiast ought to put on their bucket list, that you must make sure to visit and tick off.
Ladakh, India
Ladakh, the northernmost tip of India, is home to the pristine Pangong Lake, a number of important mountain passes, and Buddhist Gompas. Camping here can be challenging due to the high elevation, cold weather, and challenging terrain. The friendly locals and the varied flora and fauna stand in stark contrast.
Masai Mara Reserve, Kenya
The River Mara and the local Masai tribe are responsible for the reserve’s name. You may camp in this reserve and experience the best animals. Hippo pools, big cats, and the wildebeest migration to and from the nearby Serengeti may all be visited. Make your camping trip truly unique by choosing activities like a hot-air balloon ride, skydiving, and a visit to a Masai tribe.
Miyajima, Japan
Explore this island of the gods, which is located just over an hour from Hiroshima. Miyajima is the Shinto sect’s model. You will detect religious influence wherever you set up your tent when camping, from the existence of several temples to the prevalence of deer that are adored.
Laugavegur, Iceland
The Laugavegur links Thorsmork and Landmannalaugar, two well-known natural reserves, and is regarded as the best hiking trail in Iceland. Camping is an option along the entire 55-kilometer course. You will travel through a diverse terrain that includes ice caves, volcanic valleys, colorful hills, and amazing places to camp.
The Isle of Arran, Scotland
Because of its gently rising peaks and lowlands covered with forests, the Isle of Arran is frequently referred to as “Miniature Scotland.” Activities for campers are many, ranging from bicycling along the gorgeous Firth of Clyde to discovering the island’s prehistoric roots in the settlement of Brodick. If climbing mountains sounds like the ideal adventure, make the ascent to Goat Fell, the island’s highest point.
Haleakala National Park, Hawaii
The name of the dormant volcano that dominates the island of Maui is “Haleakala,” a Hawaiian phrase that means “House of the Sun” in English. There are two campsites, both of which are trail-only and surrounded by wilderness. One of the finest ways to enjoy the bleak volcanic terrain surrounded by lush vegetation is to go camping. For camping elsewhere on Maui, see some of our other posts here.
Simien Mountains, Ethiopia
Setting up tent in Ethiopia’s Simien Mountains should be on your list if you enjoy the outdoors and are physically healthy enough. Hikers must be guided by an experienced local guide because this is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Plan your trip to take place between October and May during the cool, dry months and travel through the vast valleys and towering peaks that are home to walia ibex, bearded vultures, and gelada baboons.
Skane, Sweden
Skane, located in the southernmost point of Sweden, is frequently disregarded by travelers. Simply choose a good location to set up your tent, such as one of the many wide, sandy beaches or the many lush, green fields sprinkled with beautiful flowers. The people will accept you as a camper since they uphold the “Allemansratt,” or freedom to travel.
