Camping enthusiast? Our team has curated 6 must-haves to pack in your bag and turn your next outdoor weekend into a glamping getaway! Thoughtfully chosen for their practicality, style, and eco-friendliness, these essentials let you enjoy nature in comfort—no compromises needed.
1. A biodegradable dish soap… that smells divine
Because a true nature escape extends even to the little daily routines. The SOJA&CO. biodegradable dish soap is made for those who want to stick to their eco-friendly habits — even miles away from the city.
Highly effective and gentle on the environment, it rinses easily with minimal water, making it perfect for off-grid use. And that’s not all: with refreshing, calming fragrances like Eucalyptus + Grapefruit, Lilac + Rosemary, Lemon, Sage & Rosemary, or Melon + Salty Air, doing the dishes becomes a sensory (and luxurious) moment.
2. A mosquito-repelling candle that actually works
Nothing spoils a night under the stars like a swarm of mosquitoes. Luckily, the SOJA&CO. mosquito-repellent candle is here to keep your evenings comfortable and bite-free.
Formulated with essential oils of citronella, palmarosa, and eucalyptol, it naturally repels insects while leaving a fresh, herbal aroma. Its minimalist amber jar is perfect to slip in your bag, making it the perfect little luxury to bring along.
3. A stylish rechargeable lantern
When the sun sets and the stars appear, the right light can help keep the magic going. This compact, rechargeable Snow Peak lantern, available from Altitude Sports, brings a soft, ambient glow to your campsite.
It features multiple brightness levels to suit any mood — whether you're reading in your tent, cooking at dusk, or simply soaking in the night air. With its sleek, modern design, it strikes the perfect balance between tech, style, and functionality.
4. The perfect duo for your morning coffee ritual
There’s something special about sipping hot coffee as the forest comes alive. With the 295 ml YETI Rambler mug, your drink stays piping hot for hours — ideal for cool camping mornings.
Sturdy, stylish, and adventure-ready, it’ll follow you from the campfire to the trail. Want a true barista-worthy experience? Pair it with a manual pour-over coffee maker — compact, lightweight, and electricity-free — for a cozy wake-up ritual you’ll actually look forward to.
5. A practical, stylish outdoor bag
Good organization can make or break a camping trip. The DryPeak utility tote by ciao totes, is spacious, sturdy, and made to last.
Built with weather-resistant materials, it fits everything from your spare clothes to your bug-repelling candle. Its wide opening and solid handles make it ultra-functional around camp, while the sleek, trendy design will delight any style-conscious adventurer.
6. A game of Mölkky to unwind and have fun
Luxury in nature also means making time to play! The Mölkky, a Finnish outdoor throwing game, is the perfect way to wind down at the end of the day.
Easy to carry, simple to learn, and surprisingly strategic, it’s a fun, friendly competition that gets everyone involved. Bonus: its beautiful wooden pieces appeal to nature-loving design enthusiasts. Even better? You can grab this game from Rossy, a proudly Canadian retailer.
You don’t have to sacrifice style or comfort to enjoy the outdoors. These thoughtfully chosen essentials, combining practicality, sustainability, and a touch of luxury, turn every camping moment into a little wellbeing escape.
