As we all know, many beautiful campsites are located deep in the mountains and forests, especially those at high-altitude camping areas. In addition to enjoying the fun of camping, because they are located in the high mountains, when the weather permits, you can see many beautiful scenery that you can't see in the flatland camping areas, such as: a night sky free of light pollution, the beautiful scenery of clouds and mist, etc. If you happen to be interested in high-altitude campsites, then come and take a look at the 11 high-altitude campsite recommendations that the editor has compiled for you!
The so-called high-altitude campsite refers to a camping location located in a relatively high-altitude area, generally referring to a campsite with an altitude of 800 meters (inclusive) or more.
Also because these areas are higher in altitude, compared to the plains, the unique geographical location and environmental conditions make the temperature lower and the air fresher, making them the first choice for many camping enthusiasts seeking cool summer retreats and enjoying natural beauty.
However, if you want to go to a high-altitude campsite, there are some related precautions that the editor also wants to remind everyone:
1. Temperature difference issues with large climate changes
High-altitude areas have more climate changes. The higher the altitude, the lower the temperature will also be. Even in summer, the mountains at high altitudes are still cool in the morning and evening, so it is recommended that you must prepare enough warm, but easy-to-wear and take-off clothing to cope with the large temperature differences in the mountains between day and night. If, like the editor, you are afraid of the cold, you must prepare warm gloves and a hat.
Editor's Warm Reminder: If you are going to the high-altitude mountains, you should pay special attention to the risk of altitude sickness. Because as the altitude increases, the atmospheric pressure and the partial pressure of oxygen inhaled by the human body decrease, it is easy to produce hypoxia. It is recommended that you carry it with you, such as: Rhodiola, Siberian ginseng, or a small oxygen cylinder. If necessary, you can also ask a professional doctor to prescribe relevant medications.
2. First aid kit
Remember to also carry a simple first aid kit and some common household medicines to deal with possible minor accidents or physical discomfort.
3. Camping equipment and food, drinking water supply
Because high-altitude campsites are usually very far from the city, it is very troublesome to go down the mountain to buy ingredients if you find that you haven't purchased them after arriving at the campsite, so remember to prepare enough camping ingredients, camping equipment, and drinking water. In addition to your own equipment, you should also confirm whether the campsite provides water and electricity, washing space, shower supplies, public refrigerators, etc.
4. Campsite selection
If you are new to camping, the editor recommends that you start with a campsite with a low level of difficulty for your first camping trip, because the higher the altitude of the campsite, the higher the difficulty, the more camping equipment you need, and the greater the test of your physical and mental condition, such as: altitude sickness, or other unpredictable acute diseases, will affect your camping experience and safety.
5. Tent pegs and campsite environment
Before setting up camp, be sure to check whether there are stones and sharp objects next to the tent area, such as: tent pegs left by previous campers, to avoid the tent being cut.
As long as you pay attention to these precautions, you can be safer and more comfortable when camping at high altitudes, and enjoy the fun of camping.
