Is there a "right way" to camp?

Imagine you’re preparing for a camping trip. Which option best describes your approach?

A) Reserving a spacious teepee tent in the wilderness, complete with all modern conveniences.

B) Packing a large family tent that offers ample room for various in-tent activities.

C) Tossing a swag and a pillow into the back of your four-wheel drive.

D) Stashing a hammock in your backpack, ready to hang wherever you end up.

E) Hitching up your caravan and booking a site at a Discovery Park or Big 4.

F) Maybe you’re preparing for the unexpected, permanently securing a roof top tent to your vehicle ensuring you’re always ready for a spontaneous camp.

What kind of camper are you? Or are you a combination of these?

Do you enjoy the wilderness with the luxury of a king-sized bed, gourmet meals, and a hot shower within reach? Or do you prefer a more traditional approach, camping in a spacious tent that provides shelter while allowing you to feel close to nature? Perhaps you embrace the simplicity of swag camping, with nothing but a thin layer between you and the earth, and the vast sky above. Maybe you love the freedom of traveling light. Or do you prefer the comfort of towing a cozy caravan, combining the open road with the convenience of having your home on wheels?

The key message here is that camping isn’t about following a specific path; it’s about finding what suits your spirit. There’s no single right way to camp. It’s all about discovering what resonates with your love for the outdoors.

Regardless of how you choose to camp, we all share a passion for experiencing nature and creating memories around campfires. Whether it's starlit nights, the sound of a crackling fire, or stories told under the night sky, these moments bind us together.

May your next camping trip be filled with awe, laughter, and the joy of connecting with nature in your unique way, whatever that may be!
