backcountry camping

Remote trail sleeping

Backcountry camping is outdoor camping in remote, undeveloped areas far from roads, facilities, and established campgrounds.

Unlike car camping or staying at designated sites with amenities, backcountry camping typically requires hiking or paddling to reach your spot and packing in all supplies.

We got permits for backcountry camping in the national park.

The practice appeals to those seeking solitude and a more immersive wilderness experience, though it demands greater self-sufficiency and leave-no-trace ethics.
