Camping is a recreational activity carried outside in the open. Campers are people who are involved in camping. Leaving their frantic and often chaotic urban life behind, these campers leave their place of residence and work during vacations. The destination they choose is often the regions that are either uninhabited or less inhabited. These are invariably areas where nature is in its pristine glory. The campers camp out for a few days and nights. Many sites where camps are set up are designated camping sites as the national parks. The camp sites could also be owned privately. The camp sites may also be publicly owned sites. These camp sites may offer basic facilities including cabins for people to stay. There are sites that sport modern facilities and comforts that are luxurious and expensive too. Some sites may have primitive or rudimentary structures or may simply have nothing. The campers, in this case, have to experience life as nature deems fit then. They will have to manage with what they have been able to carry with them.

Camping generally is a cheaper, but a more exciting form of recreation. Camping is usually combined with a number of other activities such as fishing, hiking, canoeing, climbing, hill hiking, swimming, or biking in the forests, meadows or mountains. There are different types of camping that are in vogue. Car camping is when one sets up a tent near the car. There are permanent camp sites with facilities for short duration stay during vacations. There are also some who live outdoors almost permanently out of necessity. But these are not the camping for recreation. Camping is really roughing it up.

Camping tent is an important camping equipment that campers bring them with them. Camping tents are available for different seasons in different sizes and shapes. They are available to accommodate one person to an entire family. A tent for the family is the Eureka Tetragon 1210 which has two rooms, six windows and two doors, mesh ceiling for ventilation, double-coated StormShield polyester fly and polyester bathtub floor.

Camp sites for camping may have such facilities as electricity, water supply, restaurants, bathrooms and laundry close by. Some camp sites may have none of these except what nature offers. Some camp sites offer such additional facilities as home theater systems, boats and canoes, bicycles, showers, kitchens, and hot water.
