In this blog post, you’ll find a curated list that features our favorite and foolproof camping gift ideas of the year. No matter your budget, there is something on this list for every type of camper.
We’ve covered you from affordable knick-knacks and tools to cool, luxury items the camper in your life might never buy for themselves.
And no, these aren’t some products we randomly threw on the list. We selected these unique camping gifts based on our own experience with them or our desire to receive them as a gift ourselves!
How to choose the best gifts for camping lovers?
First of all, the best camping gifts are often camping gear upgrades.
For example, my friends’ family once needed a new camping tent because their old one had become too small for their growing family. They had always loved camping together and were disappointed when they realized they couldn’t fit everyone inside their tent.
I knew how much a new tent would mean to them, so I surprised them. I knew I’d get The North Face Wawona 8 Tent, an impressive super roomy 3-season tent for eight sleepers.
They couldn’t wait to try it out on their next camping trip and were confident it would be able to fit everyone comfortably. They said it was easy to set up, stayed dry in the rain, and was spacious enough for everyone to move inside. It made a massive difference in their camping experience. I was happy for them and knew I had given them a gift they would use and appreciate for years.
Everyone needs camp chairs too, but most outdoor lovers settle for uncomfortable chairs. A camp chair like the super sturdy YETI Trailhead Camp Chair or the excellent NEMO Stargaze Luxury Recliner is a can’t-go-wrong camping gift. If these chairs overreach your budget, you can still find affordable chairs like the Kjaro Dual Lock Portable Camp Chair.
Have they complained about sleeping performances? How about a camping cot? You can also look for camping gift hints.
Meanwhile, what are our favorite camping gifts?
For example, an ENO DoubleNest Hammock was one of the best camping gifts I have ever received, and I use it on most camping trips. It is lightweight and easy to pack, but it’s also super comfortable for relaxing after a long day of hiking. I love setting it up between two trees, kicking back, and watching the sunset. It’s a game-changer for any camping trip, and I always pack it in my backpack.
Below, we made our list of the 10 unique camping gifts every camper will appreciate + 19 categories to ensure you can find the perfect gift for your outdoorsy.
