Choice of the basic equipment for encampments

by Lilian Canen

The choice of the equipment changes in accordance with the type of area which you are going to camp on, or even the way that you intend to arrive at the camping place. If by foot or by bus, it worths remembering that there will be a certain weight to carry, therefore, it's nice to "take it easy" a little when preparing the luggage. If you won't stay in a place with enough infrastructure, it will be necessary to get at least an improvised kitchen and a bathroom.

Some basic items of the backpack:

• Tent;


• Specs (props of setting of the tent, spit);


• Lantern and batteries;


• Knife, machete or penknife;


• Sleep bag or long cushion;


• Pans;


• Rope;


• Little pharmacy (aspirins, band-aids, adhesive tape, gauze, anti-septic etc);


• Bags - to keep the garbage.
