After a very complicated year due to the Covid-19 pandemic, we all want to enjoy nature. And there are few better options to do it than to go camping, so this is going to be the star plan of the Spanish holidays this summer. If you are also going to go camping in a tent, you should know that planning is key. There are some things that you should take with you to enjoy a few days with your friends or family outdoors.
Flashlight
Considering that currently all Smartphones can be used as a flashlight, it is very easy to forget to bring a flashlight to use. But what happens if your phone runs out of battery? Don’t forget to bring a flashlight and several battery packs .
Utility knife
Whenever you can, it is advisable to carry a utility knife . You will get a lot out of it when camping because it is used to open packaging, cook … A world of possibilities!
Toilet paper
In Spain free camping is not legal, so you must set up your tent on a camping site. Therefore, surely you have a toilet nearby. However, it doesn’t hurt to take several rolls of toilet paper with you .
Extreme battery
At the campsite you will have a plug, but it is advisable that you carry an external battery so that you can charge your Smartphone at any time. Yes, the holidays are to disconnect, but surely at some point you need to use the phone. It might even help you call for help if you have an emergency .
String
There is something that many people forget to take when they go camping in summer: the rope. Yes, you are not going to survive in the middle of nature, but surely on more than one occasion you use the rope: to improve the hold of the tent if there is strong wind , to hang the lantern from a tree and illuminate the table where you dine …
Sunscreen
And finally, the sunscreen. If you are going to go camping in a mountain place and not on the beach, you may think you don’t need it. Nothing could be further from the truth. In the forest you are also exposed to UVA and UVB rays from the sun , even on cloudy days. Therefore, do not forget about a cream with SPF 50+ (high) adapted to your skin type.
