Packing for a camping trip can be intimidating, which is why we make it easy with our camping packages! We've grouped together everything you need for a trip off the grid - we're talkin' tents, sleeping bags and pads, power stations, lanterns, coolers, furniture, and even gear for the ultimate camp kitchen. Of course, all our camp gear rentals are available a la carte as well, so you can build your own camping package too! Visit our Novato store or reserve your camping rentals online today. All rentals can be found in our rentals department in the back right corner of the store (except racquet sports).

Online reservations have a minimum lead time to ensure your gear will be available at the store you choose. Many same-day rentals are available in store, but the selection may be limited.

SB's Guide to getting Camping permits

"Picking your ideal park is no easy feat, so we recommend narrowing your choices down to a few, at least in these early stages. That way, you're leaving yourself with backup plans if your top spot sells out faster than you can book it. At big National Parks like Yosemite, reservations open can anywhere from 1 to 5 months in advance..."

Backpacking meals are flying off the shelves as people get ready for trips or prep emergency kits. While the idea of boiling water and pouring it in a bag is pretty simple, there are still some important considerations to make to ensure you get a tasty meal. Rachel Leung, SB Alumni and knowledgeable backpack enthusiast, has created a short checklist to guide you through your backcountry cooking experience.
