Looking to take a much-needed vacation but can’t afford the many expenses that are tagged along with traveling? Well, look no further. Here’s your answer: camping. While camping doesn’t seem as luxurious as a Hawaiian vacation, it’s actually an amazing experience and a great way to get away. With that, here are six reasons why you should go camping this summer.
1. Stargazing
Sure, you can stargaze from anywhere, but will you really be seeing the beauty of the millions of stars across the night sky? Being completely surrounded by tall trees, wild animals, and nature as a whole is the best way to see the gorgeous stars.2. Fresh air
Nothing, absolutely nothing, is better than being outside in the natural and fresh air. While this may sound ridiculous, the freedom that comes along with crisp air is unreal.3. The sights
While breathtaking views can be found practically anywhere you look, it won't compare to the views found during camping. Waterfalls, mounds of naturally carved rocks, hundreds of different kinds of trees, and wild animals are some of the greatest things to see while camping.4. Hiking
Obviously, you can hike anywhere, any day, at any time you want to. But hiking while camping is a completely different experience. Usually, there are not many other people around, there's freedom to explore anywhere you'd like, and there are endless opportunities to find new places and adventures!5. The feeling of freedom
Much like any vacation, you're basically free while camping. However, unlike many other vacations, you don't have to worry about finding a hotel, car rental, and finding activities to do. Camping is completely stress-free!
6. Campfires
Well, technically you don't need to be camping to have a campfire. But it's incredibly fun to be able to roast hot dogs and s'mores over the fire, knowing you get to sleep ten feet away from it and look at the stars all night long!
