Most of us love traveling, but some of us take traveling to a whole new level, and it is called backpacking. As much as we’d love to show our enthusiasm and support to our backpacking friends and family by joining their trip, some of us cannot go to great lengths to travel, or if you are a homebody, this just might be the support you can give to your backpacking loved ones.
Check out this list of backpacking essentials you should get to make your loved ones ready to conquer the world.
1) DJI Osmo Pocket 4K Camera Bundle
Never miss a moment in any travels! Get them a reliable and impressive camera that can capture amazing sights around the world. There are three things you must keep in mind when shopping for a travel-friendly camera for your backpacker friend. First is durability, it must withstand rigorous travel and heavy usage. Second is stability, the camera should be stable enough to capture perfect videos even while walking. And the most important thing is the camera’s portability. It should be handy or travel-friendly enough to bring around wherever you go. DJI Osmo Pocket 4K Camera Bundle checks all these boxes!
2) Leatherman Wingman Multi-Tool
Being a backpacker is equivalent to being a boyscout/girlscout. Any traveler must be ready for anything and equally prepared with their tools. Unfortunately, backpacking means you can only bring so much. Traveling means one must also be on the go, and it’s not really advisable to bring more than the essentials because this can slow the trip down. Leatherman Wingman Multi-Tool is the perfect solution for your friend’s every tool need. It is safe to use and easy to stash in your backpack while traveling, especially when they are in a sticky situation during the trip and they need a couple of tools to solve the problem.
3) Portable Hammock
Never miss an adventure worrying about accommodation or where to stop by in the middle of nowhere. This Portable Hammock is the lightest solution for your resting needs while seeking adventure in a deserted island or forest. Comfort, durability, and safety all in one. This hammock is lightweight, but it’s incredibly durable as well due to its 400-pound capacity. It’s travel-friendly as well; simply pack it in the small attached sack and you’re ready to go! This hammock saves up a lot of space in your pack so you won’t have to bring bulky sleeping bags with you on your trip.

Convenience is our top priority when traveling. Same with everything we take with us. How about giving them these Bose SoundLink Headphones that they can use for their next trip? These wireless headphones are more than just an upgrade from your regular headphones. Aside from losing the frustrating wires and cords, these headphones are soft to the ear and it blocks out sounds from the outside, perfect when you are resting after a day’s travel. In a single charger, this can last for up to 15 hours of continuous use, allowing them to enjoy their favorite tunes throughout the trip without worrying about a dead battery.
5) Snorkel Set

Are they fond of going to the beach? If so, swimming and snorkeling are definitely some of their favorite things during the trip. How about getting them their own Snorkel Set? While it’s possible to rent snorkeling equipment, having their own set allows them to reuse the equipment on future trips. Besides, some rentals reuse equipment so it’s not really a hygienic option. What’s more, a personal snorkeling set means they get to choose which type and color they want to have! ZEEPORTE offers blue and grey options, so you can simply ask them which one they prefer, so they can look good in underwater pictures with equipment that they personally chose.
