In this digitally savvy world where attachment to internet has become commonplace and problematic, taking time to unplug is critical. And for many, unplugging does not simply mean turning off their mobile phones and reading a book. For these people, unplugging is going out with their backpacks to some of the best campsites in the country!

Yosemite National Park (California)

Yosemite camping is one of a kind. Established in 1864, Yosemite is one of the most visited campsites in the US. And there’s no wondering why. With its iconic scenery and mountains, along with 800 miles of trails, this park gives you a bit of solitude, fun and adventure. It’s also a home to some of the tallest waterfalls and sheer granite cliffs in North America. There are also coffee shops and gift shops around. But because the park can get crowded, it’s advisable to book in advance to make sure you get a good spot at the campsite.

Assateague Island National Seashore (Maryland)

Perfect for beach and nature lovers – the Assateague Island National Seashore in Maryland is the best getaway if you’re in the East Coast. The island offers lots of fun activities for you and your family, from swimming, paddle-boarding and surfing to fishing, hunting, cycling and bird-watching. That should be plenty to keep you busy, even if you go camping for a week. The Assateague Island features ocean-side and bay-side campgrounds. Wild ponies are also a must-see. But they can be a nuisance. Make sure you keep your food and dispose your trash properly so they don’t go chasing your tent!

After a day of hiking and other physically challenging activities, wandering, and admiring breathtaking views, it’s time to huddle around a campfire with your friends or family, crack open a beer, roast hotdogs and marshmallows, play a guitar, and gaze up at the glowing stars. Then, you go inside your tent, zip it up for a deep, restful slumber. The next morning you are awakened by the sound of chirping birds and dazzling sunlight, feeling renewed and energized – ready to go back to the hustle and bustle of the city life. Oh yes – that’s what camping is all about!
