Recreational camping is an outdoor activity where individuals or groups set up temporary shelters, such as tents or campers, in natural settings like forests, mountains, or near lakes. This activity allows people to enjoy nature, engage in outdoor activities, and spend quality time with family and friends. Common camping activities include hiking, fishing, and cooking over a campfire. Many campgrounds offer amenities like restrooms, picnic tables, and fire pits, making it easier for campers to enjoy their experience. Popular camping locations include national parks, state parks, and private campgrounds. Equipment such as sleeping bags, portable stoves, and lanterns are often used to enhance the camping experience.
