If you need to, you can always play a little music to help you fall asleep.Īlthough camping solo at a campsite with other campers is perfectly safe, here’s a few helpful things I’ve learned along the way.

Be prepared to calm your mind with a little mantra or pep talk. A passing-by squirrel or a rush of wind can seem off-putting to the overactive imagination. You might get nervous your first night if you hear a rustle in the woods. While I am all for disconnecting and putting away technology while camping, it’s nice to know when you’re starting out that if you had to get ahold of someone you could.Īnd if you have trouble sleeping at night in the quiet, you could turn on some music or watch a movie in your tent before bed to help ease the transition into sleeping alone outside! Be prepared to calm your mind. If you want to ease yourself into camping solo, picking a campground that has wifi or at least cell service will put your mind at ease. If anything went wrong, all you’d have to do is walk a few steps to your car and drive away.Ĭamp at campground with wifi if you’re scared about going solo. If you’re feeling nervous at all, having your car right there will eliminate a lot of your fears. Rather than a cart in site (which would mean you are carrying your gear from a parking spot down a trail to the campground) opt for a drive-in site for your first time!
