The benefits of tent camping
Here’s why tent camping is great:
- It’s more comfortable to spend time in a tent after dark (but before you want to go to sleep)
- It’s easier to organise all your stuff in a tent
- You are better protected in windy and stormy conditions
- You don’t need to rely on the presence of trees or anchor points
- You can camp above the treeline or in desert and moorland areas
- Some people feel more secure and protected in a tent
- You can easily share a tent with your camping partner or dog, and snuggle up for extra warmth
- Keeping flying bugs out of the tent is relatively easy
- You can zip up the doors and get some privacy if you need it
Camping in a tent is the perfect option for:
- Those looking for sheltered liveable space
- Families or couples
- Those who don’t mind searching around for the perfect camping spot
- Backpacking above the treeline
