Not everyone is cut out for camping, and even fewer enjoy cold-weather camping. However, this is an excellent way to try something new and build memories with your family. Below, we will show you our favorite RV tips for improving your cold-weather camping trip.
Prepare Your RV for the Cold
Before you plan a cold-weather camping trip, you’ll need to make sure your RV is capable of camping in the cold weather. All-terrain tires on your RV are a must, especially if you expect snow or ice at your destination. You will also want to ensure your camper has Fourseason insulation or something similar. If it is not properly insulated, you may need to add insulation wherever you can. Lastly, make sure you understand you’re RV’s plumbing system and how to keep it warm on especially cold nights.
Look for Off-Season Pricing
Camping in the off-season is an excellent way to save big bucks on your stay. Most campgrounds feature heavy off-season discounts, especially in the coldest months. Ask about off-season discounted pricing when booking your stay.
Pack Plenty of Warm Clothing and Gear
Don’t forget to pack plenty of warm clothes for everyone. Even if the days at the campground are warm enough for everyone to be comfortable, it’s always a good idea to plan for the unexpected. We recommend bringing hats, gloves, scarves, coats, and thick socks.
Get Out and Get Moving!
Start your days at the campground off by getting up and getting moving. This can be a quick walk around the campground to get your heart pumping or a nature hike through one of the trails. Whatever you do, getting up and moving first thing in the morning is an excellent way to make the most of your cold-weather camping trip.
