In recent years, camping has quietly taken off in people's lives as a great way to relax and unwind. Camping is a leisure activity in which campers usually take a tent and leave the city to camp in the wilderness for one or more nights. Camping is often associated with other activities such as hiking, fishing, or swimming.


Camping can be divided into three types



Regular camping


This is the most common type of camping activity and is done on foot or in a vehicle, usually in a valley, on the shore of a lake, or by the sea, where the camper can build a campfire, have a barbecue, have a picnic, or sing.


Trailer camping


A special type of vehicle, also known as a mobile home, is used for camping in the wilderness, usually a trailer like a house, with heating or cooling, electricity, and even a kitchen.


Special forms of camping


This refers to camping for special activities, such as long rock climbing, which can take several days, and for rest, campers hang their tents on the edge of cliffs to camp, which can be very dangerous and exciting.


Camping has many benefits


1. Breathing fresh air


Being outdoors and close to nature allows you to breathe fresher air, and the feeling of well-being we get when we take our first breath of fresh air at a campsite reduces stress.


2. Promote relationships


Bringing your family and friends with you on a camping trip is not only fun, but it can also enhance your relationship with them.


3. Improves mood


Many campers often feel that their mood seems happier in the first few days back from camping.


4. Reduce stress


The fast pace of life makes stress invisible. Camping can be a great way of releasing stress.


5. Physical exercise


Another great benefit of camping is physical exercise.


6. Enjoy the sunshine


Enjoying the sunshine outdoors also provides vitamin D and promotes the absorption of calcium and phosphorus.


7. Get a good night's sleep


Assuming you have good camping gear, this will allow you to enjoy a quality sleep after a day full of outdoor activities.


8. Enjoy food


If you like to fish, you can also eat fresh fish while camping, consuming protein and healthy fats, freshly caught without any preservatives, so you can enjoy the best.


Camping can bring many benefits and we need to be aware of some issues.


Six things to note about camping in the wild


Firstly, choose a campsite that is close to water or a stream, in a flat area with no rocky hillsides, and with good drainage to avoid waterlogging.


Secondly, the campsite should be located in a bright and dry place with sufficient sunlight, not in a dark and humid place.


Thirdly, when setting up your tent in the chosen location, make sure that the exit of the tent is in a leeward position.


Fourthly, when camping in the wild at night, you should pay attention to safety. You can build a fire near the tent and sweep the ashes around the tent to repel insects and mosquitoes.


Fifthly, camping in the wilderness should be prepared with some medicines such as cold and flu medicine, fever medicine, and some common medicines to stop bleeding and treat bruises.


Sixth, camping in the wild must pay attention to the protection of the natural environment, and must not damage the environment. Remember to deal with rubbish. When ready to leave, you should remember to put out the fire to ensure that the fire is completely extinguished after leaving.
