Sleeping Bags

Being comfortable and warm at night is important if yo are going to get the most from your camping holiday, a good sleeping bag is a key piece of equipment for any camping trip . It's hard to appreciate a beautiful dawn when you've spent most of the night shivering in an poor sleeping bag [view range of sleeping bags].

Here are a number of things you should consider when choosing your sleeping bag.

  • A sleeping bag must keep you warm .
  • You also need a bag you can stretch out and curl up in rather than one that feels like a strait-jacket.
  • The filliing in the sleeping bag is important. There are three types
    • down- best warmth for weight ratio packs up smallest and is long lasting, but loses warmth when soaked and is slow to dry.
    • polyester fill - quick drying, resistant to damp and reasonably priced but bulkier and heavier than down
    • fibre-pile - is warm when wet, quick drying, long lasting and inexpensive, but again bulkier and heavier than down for equivalent warmth.

Whatever the fill, sleeping bags come in various weights and warmth ratings.

Today there are as many varied ways of camping as there are campers. Camping becomes a personal thing. Even though you may be away from the warm confines of your cozy bedroom at home, you still want to get just as good a night's sleep.
