A good rule to follow when you pack your backpack for camping and hiking is to pack in three parts: bottom, middle and top.
Always pack the bottom first, balance the weight by putting heavy things in the centre and stash your essentials for the trail on top. This way the things you need are always within reach and don’t require taking off your pack and digging through the whole thing.Â
Here’s a breakdown of how to pack a backpack for camping and hiking.
Tip:
- Roll your garments to save space and to avoid wrinkles
- Use travel sized toiletries to save space and weight
- Quick dry garments are perfect when travelling. You can easily wash or rinse them during the trip
