remote camping

Far-from-roads sleeping

Remote camping is camping in wilderness areas far from developed facilities, roads, or other people.

Unlike campground camping with designated sites and amenities, remote camping means carrying everything you need into backcountry locations: We packed in five miles for some remote camping by the lake.

The appeal is solitude and unmediated contact with nature.
