Romantic & Fun Camping Activities For Couple to Try

There are a lot of fun and romantic activities you can do with your partner, from having dates to travel. All of these range from simple to complicated when it comes to planning, and almost all of these could cost quite a bit.

But do you know that you could also have a fun and romantic trip without spending too much camping?

Fun and Romantic Camp Tips

1. Have a Picnic



What's very exciting about camping out is that you get to do a lot of various activities that you otherwise won't think about spending time on in the city. An example of this is having a picnic. This seemingly normal activity is amplified by the experience of preparing all the food necessary and is culminated through the picnic itself.

Bonus points if you get to prepare the sandwiches, drinks, other food, and plan the entire picnic with your partner. It becomes a good bonding experience before you travel out and get to eat what you prepared.

2. Choose a Theme



As a couple, you can choose the theme for your camp out. Want something fun? Aiming for something romantic? Do you want a nature-oriented campground? Or do you want something simple and homey?

This is an excellent way to create an atmosphere for you and your partner, making your camp out more meaningful and eventful.

You can plan on what kind of base you'll be setting up. You and your partner can choose the different decorations and plan how you'll build up your campgrounds to meet your chosen motif.

Have fun in the planning and decision process and make sure to choose the one that fits best for both of you. This would ensure that both of you would love the theme for the camp night.

3. Make Camp Rules



There are a lot of ways to make the camp out fun and interesting. You can make camp rules to go by for the entire trip out.

You can make this in relation to the theme that you set out with your partner. These rules don't have to be strict nor should they be too much, just some that you can set to make the whole event interesting and even romantic as well.

A popular and common camp rule is phoned off. You can both decide to keep your phones away for the duration of the trip, with the exception of emergency messages or calls. You can also try making a rule when it comes to cooking. You can both try different rules that can make everything interesting and romantic.

4. Set the mood with music



Along with having a theme and setting out some rules, you can amplify the setting with some fitting music. Anything will do, but it's better if the music will be something that you both like. You can also try for romantic tunes to set the mood, you can go for something lively to start a pace, or you can go for some instrumental music to softly set a background.

Bring a radio or some Bluetooth speakers. This is definitely a recommended tip, because as the night unfolds, the scenery may get a bit repetitive and you might get bored with no music along with you. Besides being good background music, it can even be a major part of your night out. Sing along, dance along, or play along with the tunes for a fun night.

5. Follow a trail.



The whole camping trip doesn't have to start and end when you pack up the campgrounds. It can already begin when you arrive at the site. Plan out a good trail to follow if you have time. You can even do this in advance so you can simply enjoy the travel as you go to your destination. You can map out existing landmarks that are worth the travel, and you can make your own path to follow if you have some places in mind. As long as you both get the most out of your travels, it's definitely a good plan.

This doesn't mean you have to pre-determine your tracks. You can also make it interesting and a bit unpredictable by trekking without a pre-determined trail. It can even be part of the activities for the trip. But it's more recommended to have it all planned out so that more time can be spent enjoying the whole scenery.

6. Find a good spot for you two.



After traveling for your location, you have to make sure that you have the best site for your campgrounds. It doesn't have to be the perfect one, but you can opt for one that ticks off a lot of boxes from your checklist. You can choose someplace where it's comfortable, beside the river, in a circle of trees, or at a relatively quiet and remote place.

First and foremost, you have to choose the spot where you think it's safest. It's important to choose a place where you'll feel safe as you and your partner will be spending the night at the campground. It would also ruin the mood if you're not comfortable there. You can also choose a place that both of you agree upon, whether it's by the riverside, or in a lush forest.

7. Bring what you need




You can make the most out of your camping trip with several activities. But a good tip is to have the perfect equipment and camp gear to make the experience better.

Double camping bags are romantic, wine glasses for drinking sets a good mood, a sleeping bag fitting both of you is sweet and cozy, foam sleeping pads are indispensable items, cards and some board games make a fun night. All of these individual things create an overall scene, one that is both fun and romantic at the same time.

A Romantic, Fun, and Eventful Camp Out

Camping out with your loved one is a special occasion. It can be as simple as requiring little preparation, or as grand as requiring a week of planning. It all boils down to how you and your partner want to spend the night out with nature and your partner. Along with these tips we presented, you can make the night a moment to remember as long as both of you agree on the set-up, location, and specifics of the travel.

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?
