What is Glamping?

Glamping means camping in style. It often involves staying in pre-set tents, yurts, or small cabins equipped with real beds, fireplaces, and sometimes even bathrooms. It’s a way to connect with nature while still enjoying a high level of comfort. More and more people are choosing glamping as a way to combine relaxation with outdoor experiences.

Whether you're traveling solo, as a couple, or with family, glamping can be tailored to your needs and preferences. Many glamping sites also offer added luxuries like hot tubs, breakfast baskets, and electricity for charging your devices—making it possible to enjoy nature without giving up everyday comforts. Glamping has become a great option for those who wouldn’t normally consider traditional camping, but still long for time outdoors.

Planning Your Glamping Trip

Planning a glamping trip starts with choosing the right location. Maybe you want to wake up to birdsong in the forest, hike in the mountains, enjoy a lake view, or breathe in the fresh air of the archipelago. Websites like camping.se and First Camp offer a variety of options depending on your preferences. To make your glamping experience even more memorable, consider combining it with activities like hiking, paddling, or fishing.

It's also smart to think about the level of comfort you want. Some glamping sites offer full service with made beds and meals, while others require you to bring most things yourself. Consider whether you need access to electricity, running water—or if a beautiful view and peace and quiet are all you need. Whatever your needs or budget, there’s something for everyone. Planning ahead ensures you get the most out of both the adventure and the relaxation.

Glamping Gear – What You’ll Need

A successful glamping experience often comes down to what you bring. A portable camping stove or outdoor cooker makes it easy to prepare great meals right in the heart of nature—and if you're planning for longer or colder stays, a multi-fuel stove is a flexible choice.

Add pots, pans, knives, and other practical kitchen tools, and you’re ready to create meals with a homey feel—just with a better view.

To boost the cozy factor, it’s worth investing in vacuum bottles, insulated mugs, and tea or coffee accessories like a compact French press. That way, you can start your day with a hot drink and enjoy warm meals long after the sun goes down.

Don’t forget smart packing—bags, storage, and the right type of fuel are essential for both safety and comfort. When it’s time to dine, add the finishing touch with durable plates, cutlery, practical meal sets, and a lantern to set the mood.
