Here are 20 tips to help you have an unforgettable camping vacation.
It doesn’t matter whether you have a roof tent or a caravan – camping tips are always useful.

Tip 1: Invest in good equipment

Investing in good camping equipment can make your trip more enjoyable, safer and more comfortable.
High-quality equipment, such as a comfortable tent, a comfortable sleeping pad and a warm sleeping bag, can improve your sleep and thus increase your overall comfort.
Robust equipment can increase protection from weather conditions, animals and other hazards.
Reliability is also important.
High-quality equipment is worthwhile because it is more durable.

Some modern equipment is lighter and more compact than earlier models, making it easier to carry.
You should pay attention to this when buying your equipment:

  • Invest in good camping equipment
  • Good equipment improves comfort
  • Robust equipment protects
  • High-quality equipment is more durable
  • Modern equipment is often lighter & more compact

Tip 10: Avoid loud noises at night

Avoiding loud noises at night on a campsite is important so as not to disturb the peace and quiet of other campers.
Many people camp to relax from the stress of everyday life and enjoy a peaceful environment.
Loud noises can spoil this relaxation and lead to conflicts.
You should also be aware that there may be nature lovers at the campsite who use the night’s rest to enjoy the sounds of nature.
It should also be noted that many campsites have rules against noise disturbance at night, which you should be sure to follow to avoid penalties.

At a glance:

  • Less relaxation with loud noises
  • Avoid conflicts by being quiet
  • You can perceive nature in silence
  • Campsites have rules against noise
  • Therefore: speak quietly, turn down the music & switch off devices

Tip 11: Protect yourself and your equipment from the sun & rain

By following these measures, you can better protect yourself and your equipment from rain and moisture and make your camping trip more pleasant and comfortable.
Choose a campsite with well-developed infrastructure and shelters to protect you from the rain and wet.
Also use a waterproof tent or caravan with a sturdy roof and use good rain gear such as raincoats or ponchos to protect you from the rain.
Use a waterproof tarpaulin to protect your tent or equipment from the rain.
Store your equipment securely in waterproof containers or bags to prevent it from getting wet on the move.
Avoid using electronic devices such as cell phones or cameras in the rain.
Check your equipment regularly for leaks and damaged areas to ensure that everything is well protected from the wet at all times.
To protect yourself and your equipment from rain and moisture when camping, you can take the following measures:

  • Choice of campsite with well-developed infrastructure & shelters
  • Use of a waterproof tent or caravan with a stable roof

This will keep everything dry even when it rains: 180° awning side walls and 270° awning side walls.

Tip 12: Use running water with caution

If you have any doubts about whether the water is safe to drink, it is better to use purchased mineral water or contact the campsite staff for more information.
It is important that you have sufficient and safe drinking water to protect your health and comfort during your camping trip.
Fresh and drinkable water should not have an unpleasant odor.
Drinkable water should be clear and free of suspended solids and impurities.
There are simple tests you can carry out to check the quality of the water, such as water test sticks or kits.

Tip 13: Dispose of your waste properly

By following these steps, you can help keep the campsite clean and tidy and make the camping experience enjoyable for you and others.
Use bin bags to collect all waste so that it can be disposed of properly and hygienically.
Separate biodegradable waste, such as food scraps, from non-degradable waste, such as plastic, aluminum and glass.
Use the bins provided at the campsite for each type of waste to ensure that it is disposed of properly.
Avoid dumping waste outside of bins as this can pollute the campsite and the environment.
Dispose of your garbage regularly to ensure that the campsite remains clean and tidy.

Tip!
You can easily collect your waste with a bin liner holder like this: special bin liner holder.

To dispose of waste properly when camping, you should follow these steps:

  • Use bin liners
  • Sort your garbage
  • Use the right bins
  • Avoid game deposits
  • Dispose of your waste regularly

Tip 14: Avoid open fires when they are prohibited

By following these precautions, you can have a safe and enjoyable campfire experience while camping that protects the environment and enhances the camping experience.
Before lighting the fire, check the rules of the campsite and the location you are in.
Choose a safe place for your fire where it is not too close to trees, rows of tents or other buildings.
It may help to use a stone or concrete fire pit as this will keep the fire away from the surrounding ground and plants.
Only use dry wood to light and maintain the fire.
Damp wood produces smoke and can make the fire difficult to control.
Always monitor the fire when it is burning and extinguish it completely when you no longer need it.
Use water and a shovel to safely extinguish the fire and make sure it is completely out before you leave the fire pit.

Did you know?
You can even cook directly in the fire.
You can do this with a Dutch oven.
You can find them in different sizes here: Dutch oven ft3, loaf pan k4, Dutch oven ft4.5, Dutch oven 4.5 (without feet), Dutch oven ft6, Dutch oven 6qt (without feet), loaf pan k8, Dutch oven ft9, Dutch oven qt9 (without feet) and Dutch oven ft12.

  • Pain medication
  • Scissors & tweezers
  • Tick tweezers

Tip 16: Find out about dangerous animals and plants

It is important to recognize poisonous plants and animals and avoid them to prevent poisoning, bites and stings.
In the event of poisoning, a bite or a sting, it is important to seek medical help as soon as possible.
There are some poisonous animals and plants in Germany that you need to be aware of: You should watch out for these animals:

  • Cross spiders
  • Snakes (e.g. adder, asp viper)
  • Wasps, hornets & bees

These plants are poisonous even on contact with the skin:

Tip 17: Avoid camping in high-risk areas

You should inform yourself in advance about the specific dangers in the chosen camping area and take appropriate precautions to camp safely and minimize risks.
Wilderness areas and untouched natural landscapes have a higher probability of encountering wild animals.
If there are more wild animals in an area, you should stow food and waste well.
As a camper, you should also be careful here and not willfully damage nature.
You should generally be careful with open fires, but especially when it is hot, dry and very windy.
Especially in summer and in very dry areas, you should take care to avoid lighting fires or smoking.
On the other hand, you should also be careful in areas that are too humid.
Especially in rainy or stormy seasons, you should keep a safe distance from shores and coasts.

  • Avoid areas with lots of wild animals
  • Forest fire risk in hot, dry & windy weather
  • Areas near water during heavy rain & storms

Storage boxes are worthwhile so that you can store everything safely, keep animals away and protect your utensils from heat and moisture.

Tip 18: Keep the campsite clean & tidy

To keep everything neat and tidy, you should use separate bins for recycling and non-recycling waste.
You should also dispose of your garbage regularly and not throw it on the ground, as nobody wants to live on a dirty campsite.
When you are tidying up and cleaning, you should make sure that your cleaning products are biodegradable so as not to harm nature.
You should always treat green spaces and natural areas with care and not wantonly destroy them so that other campers can also enjoy the beauty of nature.

Also plan enough time for relaxation and recreation into your daily routine.
Avoid stress factors such as noise and overcrowding by being active at certain times and withdrawing at other times.

Material and processing.
The tent fabric of our trailer tents is made from a high-quality, 450 g blended fabric, also known as canvas. This unique combination of cotton and polyester combines the advantages of a natural fiber with those of a modern high-tech material. The result is a robust, breathable fabric that impresses with its pleasant feel and high dimensional stability.

The tent fabric, which is also used by the military, is impregnated and particularly tear-resistant thanks to the ripstop process. In this special weaving technique, thicker threads are woven into the fabric at intervals of around 10-15 millimetres, giving the fabric its characteristic tiled structure and exceptional tear resistance. It goes without saying that our fabrics are opaque and therefore offer optimum protection and privacy.
The basis of our trailer tents is a robust stainless steel frame with a thickness of 3×3 cm. A 1.8 cm thick, water-resistant wooden floor panel is securely fastened to this sturdy frame with stainless steel screws. The frame of the trailer tents is also made of galvanized steel tubing and special stainless steel components that ensure maximum stability. The modern surface finish not only offers a high level of corrosion protection, but also gives the material a pleasant feel and ensures a durable, weatherproof construction.
We rely exclusively on yarn from the German market leader Amann. Thanks to the combination of a cotton core and a high-tenacity polyester core, this yarn is characterized by a particularly high tensile strength and excellent water resistance.

On contact with water, the cotton coating swells and closes the seam holes created during sewing. For additional protection, all seams in the roof area are fitted with a transparent sealing strip to ensure maximum waterproofness.
Less is sometimes more.
We are often asked: What about the water column? For tent fabrics, the impermeability of the fabric is specified in the form of the water column. For cotton tents, this value is usually around 300 to 400 mm. However, our tent fabric offers an exceptionally high water column for cotton fabric of around 750 mm. This means that theoretically more than 75 cm of water can stand on the material before the first drops penetrate.

A major advantage of cotton as a natural raw material is its ability to swell when it gets damp, which provides additional waterproofing. In contrast, synthetic fabrics, which cannot swell, must have a much higher water column (between 3,000 and 10,000 mm, depending on the material) in order to achieve comparable waterproofness.
Good night.
The comfort sleep set consists of a high-quality visco foam mattress that adapts perfectly to the individual body shape, ensuring a restful night’s sleep. The set is complemented by the innovative Froli bed spring system, which guarantees an exceptional sleeping experience. Perfect sleeping comfort in a well thought-out overall package.
Premium mattress.
An excellent mattress is the basis for healthy and restful sleep. Just as every person is unique, their mattress should also be individually tailored to them.
Our premium mattress adapts perfectly to the contours of the body and promotes orthopaedically correct positioning of the spine. Thanks to targeted pressure relief, back muscles and intervertebral discs can relax optimally. The innovative construction and high-quality materials create an ideal sleeping environment.
There are no compromises at CAMPWERK: We rely on flexible visco foam with memory function. The unique combination of supportive foam core and relieving visco foam topper ensures maximum sleeping comfort.
  • Visco-elastic mattress.
  • High-quality Tencel® cover (38 % Tencel®, 62 % polyester).
  • Four practical turning loops.
  • Four-sided zipper.
  • Removable, divisible and washable.
  • Four practical turning loops.
Suspension.
Good ventilation is crucial for your well-being and sleep hygiene. To ensure maximum sleeping comfort, we combine our mattress with an innovative Froli slat base. The flexible spring elements form a comfortable slat base with individually adjustable firmness zones. This combination ensures orthopaedically correct positioning of the body and provides targeted, pressure-relieving support. This effectively prevents tension and one-sided strain. The open, air-permeable cells also enable optimum ventilation and create a healthy sleeping environment.
Are you allergic or do you have special health requirements? No problem! We cooperate with a renowned German mattress manufacturer to offer customized solutions. Simply contact us and together we will find the ideal mattress for your needs.
