Women And Camping Safety

Women camping alone without being lonely, It's your call. Time for some dutch courage! speak to local people find out what you can about the area. You will be surprised how nice people can be and what they offer in tips and advice. Be friendly with the other campers on the campsite you can meet some cool people. Other people may ask you when they know your alone if you would like to visit somewhere with them for day. Its happened loads of times for me,it just offers a day trip with others to spilt the time up alone.

When you eat out, eat at cafe's or a place that's busy. Maybe ask a new friend you have made to come along. I take something to read if i dont make conversation with someone.

Bring the books you meant to read and some new tunes on the mp3 player. Great to occupy your mind on something positive, a distraction.

Unwanted attention , pesky blokes
Most guys are fine. Some men may just be attracted to you and are just testing the water to see if you respond. If you feel a guy is strange then follow your instincts, you are probably right. If someone is asking questions, a stranger, then lie about who your with and dont let them know about any of your plans. Tell them your brother or boyfriend is arriving today. Even say something like thats just reminded me i need to call them now to see what time they are arriving, then say goodbye. If you are being pestered by someone go into a shop or speak to someone and tell them about this guy, even point at him to make him realise you know and now someone else knows that he is a creep. If you are legally allowed to carry mace buy some cheap from Amazon If you have to call the police,just do it. If you have a bad experience explain to someone on the campsite and maybe spend the day with them or put your backpack on and try new pastures for peace of mind.


Dont be afraid to talk to strangers, they can offer so much advice and experiences. I have spoke to someone and ended up spending days or weeks with them having a ball. The backpackers scene is much better for this. I love the backpacker community of solo travellers.


Theft Risk
Leave expensive jewellery and unnecessary items at home. Leave the wardrobe at home ladies. Insure the items you carry. I use a comparison site like MoneySupermarket.com ans similar. .

Keep your items zipped away in your backpack, camera, purse etc, for the day. Dont leave expensive items in your Tents For Camping  .



You have one more important thing to do , HAVE FUN. Be prepared and then just enjoy the adventure. You may meet me one day on your adventure, please dont spray me with mace I am friend not foe.
