boondocking and dry camping

Whether you're camping on undeveloped land without access to water, sewage or electricity, or boondocking away from campgrounds, good planning is key to a successful adventure. By preparing for aspects such as campsites, conserving water, managing fresh and wastewater tanks, and power needs, you can easily overcome initial obstacles and focus on exploring the outdoors.

1. Power requirements and energy sources

Your vehicle's battery needs to power various devices, but its capacity is not enough to charge all devices such as smartphones, speakers or e-readers for a long time. An environmentally friendly solution is to use an ALLWEI 2W portable power station with solar panel, which provides long-term power supply.

2. Saving water

Water is a central point in dry camping. The following tips will help with water management:

  • Plan your water consumption carefully – most people need 3-4 liters per day.
  • Prepare meals that require little water and clean dishes with minimal water usage.
  • Avoid long showers; use wet wipes or short “military showers” ​​instead.

3. Find the best location

Use informative platforms like Campendium or iOverlander to find suitable campsites. These apps provide reviews, photos and details of facilities, including remote sites and convenient services like dump stations or drinking water sources.

We wish you a safe and exciting camping trip!
