The air fills with the smoke from your campfire. The stars line the heavens. A cool breeze reminds you just how fresh the air can be. You’re camping!

There’s nothing quite like camping.Take the most confirmed city dweller into the woods for a weekend of campsites, tenting, hiking, cooking over an open flame… and even the most tender of tenderfoot urbanites will be talking about their “camp out” for years to come.

Take your kids camping, and you’ll have memories to last a lifetime.

The GettingOutside.com Community is dedicated to helping one another have more fun outdoors, especially through camping – and all the outdoor activities that go with it: hiking, canoeing, fishing, sleeping under the stars, etc.

We’ll help you make the most of your next camping experience. Share your favorite campgrounds, camp adventures, and camping tips with the rest of the GettingOutside Community.
