I really love this wild, pure way of camping—heading into the mountains on weekends!
Tired of the concrete jungle and overcrowded campsites in the city, I prefer the raw, unfiltered connection with nature that bushcraft camping offers ✨
No fancy or delicate gear needed—just bring some basic tools into the woods. Set up a shelter, gather firewood, start a fire, brew a hot drink, and watch the light shift through the trees. Time itself seems to slow down.
Every time I go into the mountains, my Mardingtop 35L tactical backpack handles the load perfectly. This capacity is so friendly for lightweight bushcraft needs—it easily fits essentials like a machete, tinder box, portable cookware, and a sleeping bag. The built-in MOLLE webbing also lets me attach a water bottle or an entrenching tool sheath externally, so I can grab tools without digging through the pack. Plus, its suspension system hugs the back nicely, distributing weight evenly even on winding forest trails. After hiking several kilometers, my shoulders still feel fine. It really is the perfect partner for bushcraft camping.
On weekends, I just disappear into the mountains—to feel the wind, the firewood, and the scent of nature. That’s what camping is truly about
