Vegan camping guide

Our vegan camping guide equips you for an excursion into the great outdoors by providing information on topics ranging from cruelty-free sunscreen to s’mores and hiking gear.

Camping provides the ideal setting for getting in touch with nature and living a more simple life, away from the hustle and bustle of modern civilization. You shouldn’t leave your vegan principles behind when you go camping, regardless of whether you like to rough it in a tent and sleeping bag or go glamping in an RV with air conditioning. We are showcasing a few of our favorite foods, supplies, and staples to guarantee that you have a stress-free weekend in the great outdoors so that you can have the most enjoyable cruelty-free camping trip you’ve ever been on.

How to Gear it Up?

If you are going to be camping in an area where the temperature drops at night, you should bring a warm sleeping bag with you so that you won’t be shivering the whole time. You can get sleeping bags that are stuffed with down or wool, but REI has a range of sleeping bags that are simply constructed from synthetic fibers that will keep you warm and comfortable throughout the night.

A robust pair of hiking boots is an absolute must if you intend to go out on the route. If you don’t wear shoes that fit properly, you put yourself in danger of spraining your ankles and experiencing foot pain because your arches aren’t properly supported. As a solution to this problem, we recommend that you get the All Terrain Pro Waterproof Hiker from Eco Vegan Shoes, the Approach Mid from Vegetarian Shoes, or the Merrell Men’s Zion FST Mid Waterproof Hiking Boot if you want your feet and ankles to be supported while hiking in the wilderness.

When you go hiking or camping in the great outdoors, you should have a cruelty-free backpack to carry your drinking water, snacks, and any other items you might require. Both Mountain Smith’s Clear Creek Backpacks and Osprey’s Backpacking Packs are completely free of animal products and are designed to withstand an extensive number of hikes.

The cuisine

Camping food is all about low-maintenance meals that don’t require kitchen facilities and can be tossed up with a few simple ingredients. Nevertheless, this description does not have to connote an unending supply of peanut butter and jelly sandwiches and protein bars. Bring some JUST Egg in a cooler with you so you can make a memorable scramble or sandwich for breakfast. This will make your mornings more exciting and less complicated.

You can satiate your need for coffee in the morning with BruTrek’s French Press, which features a durable external casing and was built specifically for use when brewing coffee away from home. Make sure that you include a few packets of Nod Food’s powdered oat creamer in your pack so that you can enjoy a delicious swirl of additional creaminess.

Make this Campfire French Toast, which needs to combine only a few ingredients before you leave on your journey if you want to go a bit more gourmet as you fuel up for the day. This recipe can be found here. When the day’s activities come to a conclusion and your stomach is grumbling for something to eat, rev up the bonfire and throw some kebabs made of tofu and vegetables onto the grill. On a hiking excursion with a backpack? Try some of Readywise’s plant-based meals that have been dehydrated. Our own favorite? Risotto made with wild rice.

As the sun begins to drop, break out the honey-free vegan graham crackers, your favorite fair-trade vegan chocolate bar, and a bag of Dandies marshmallows so you can make s’mores while you tell scary ghost stories.

Other Necessary Components

Because camping is about more than simply food and clothes, you’ll need to bring a few additional camping essentials along with you if you want your vacation to be as fun as it can possibly be. First, when you set up a hammock at your campground, don’t forget to apply some cruelty-free sunscreen to your skin to protect it from the sun so that you won’t have to deal with the discomfort of a sunburn in the future.

Mosquitoes can be a nuisance when camping in the summer, especially if you set up camp close to a body of water like a lake. Use a vegan bug spray or a mixture of essential oils such as citronella, peppermint, lavender, and eucalyptus oil to repel insects in a manner that does not involve the use of any products that are tested on animals.

Are you going to have a swim in the river or the lake today? If you’re looking for an earth-friendly approach to dry off, drying off with a sturdy Nomadix towel is the way to go. Because thirty recycled plastic bottles from post-consumer waste go into the production of beach towels, you can feel very good about the decision you’ve made.

Last but not least, you should bring some plant-based hand soap or hand sanitizer with you on your vacation. This is because your bathroom options may be limited (or less than optimal), and your journey will be much more pleasurable if you can maintain a clean and comfortable environment throughout it.
