Practice pitching your tent at home
Not everyone is a camping pro, and you won’t want to test your camping skills when you’re in the woods with only a few minutes of sunlight left.
Instead, pitch your tent in your living room or backyard a few times before you head out. This can help speed up the process of setting up your tent so you don’t waste valuable camping time dealing with tent poles.

Go during the week, not the weekend
If your schedule allows, go camping during the week. The campgrounds on any summer weekend are usually packed – everyone is looking for a small place to stay.
So if you’re looking for a quieter and more relaxed camping trip, check to see if you can fit a mid-week time into your schedule.
Choose your campsite ahead of time
