Camping in National Parks USA



mountain man gear list



There are important things you should remember when camping in national park. Safety is the number one concern. Large predators such as bears can pose a significant risk, so it is important to store food, supplies, and waste appropriately. A good idea is to purchase bear-resistant food storage containers to put in your vehicle or in the trunk of your car. It is also a good idea to leave these containers at least 15 feet above the ground.

There are rules for camping in national parks. Yellowstone is an example. It requires that you treat your dog with respect. They shouldn't be allowed to roam free, and they shouldn't pose any danger to wildlife. To avoid unwanted attention, you must pick up after your dog. Furthermore, you should follow the "leave not trace" principle: Leave campsites as they are found.

Before you go to a campground in a national forest, verify that reservations are possible. Some national parks allow reservations online, while others don't. You should always try to secure reservations before arriving, because you can be turned away if you don't have a reservation. It is best to book your reservation well in advance to avoid any problems with the first come, first served system. Book at least one year in advance to ensure a smooth trip.


You should choose a campground with amenities when you are planning a camping trip within a national park. You may find a designated campground within the park, or an undeveloped area where you can camp. It can be tricky to dispersed camp in a national park. National parks have more regulations and protections than other campgrounds. It's therefore a good idea that you check these regulations before you set up your tent.

Consider whether you would prefer to camp in a campground in the front or in a park in the backcountry during your trip. Some national parks can't be reached by cars so you may need to drive a bit to get there. It's also important to decide whether you would prefer a campground near a park bathroom or one that is more crowded. A campground closer to a bathroom will be more private than one farther away.
