Build a better base camp – Why a gazebo is the way to go!

Once you’ve used a Gazebo on a camping trip you’ll quickly realise how handy they can be! It’s one of those bits of gear that you might not think you need – and we’re sometimes guilty of that same idea – however, we always pack it in our 4WDs when going away and it always gets used more than just about anything else! Whether you’re heading to the beach and need some shade or you’re expecting some rain or even snow, a strong camping gazebo is exactly what you need! Don’t believe us? The next time you go away take a look at other campers who have set up their Gazebo and you’ll notice that it’s always the centre of camp and the centre of attention! It’s the place where people get together, relax and stay out of the weather.

It’s obvious, but people tend to congregate under shade and shelter. If it’s a sweltering hot day then hanging out under a high quality gazebo is just about the best place you can be! The main reason is that a Gazebo will offer excellent sun protection and help to keep you much cooler – in fact Adventure Kings Gazebos are actually UPF50+ rated meaning they stop more than 98% of harmful UV rays. Whether you’re under a 3x3m or the roomy 6x3m gazebo you’ve got plenty of space to spread out and stay out of the sun. due to their open sides, gazebos allow all the breeze to come through too which will mean you’ll likely be the coolest campers at the campground! On the other hand if the weather turns, then you’ll be just as glad you packed a tough gazebo, they’re waterproof and perfect at deflecting rain away from you and your camp. Because of the high peaked roof a gazebo is even ideal in snow! It prevents too much weight building up and allows the snow to slide right off.

Because gazebos don’t need to mounted to a vehicle, they’re the perfect base camp. You can leave your camping gear set up, go for a drive, come back and all you need to do is sit back and relax! Just ensure you choose a gazebo that’s tough enough to be still standing when you return to it! The tough steel frame of an Adventure Kings gazebo is a good example of what a gazebo needs to be if you want it to survive remote trips and harsh conditions! Another key feature is the ability to peg each foot of the gazebo into the ground as well as use guy ropes on eyelets on each corner of the roof to securely tie the gazebo down. Following on from the Gazebo as an excellent base camp is the idea of using a large 6x3m gazebo as a central living space or central hub at your campsite. This is a great way to bring everyone together in the middle of camp without needing to squeeze in between vehicles, swags and camping gear. Set up the 6x3m gazebo (or even two!) and you’ll have the perfect space for everyone to sit under while keeping out of the sun or the weather. Whether you’re kicking back with some drinks or cooking up a feast everyone will love that you can hang out together in the one place.

Another reason Adventure Kings Gazebos are so popular is that there’s a wide range of genuine gazebo accessories and additions that you can fit to make your set up even better. There’s both 3x3m and 6x3m mesh floors which fit perfectly underneath most camping gazebos and help to keep your whole campsite much more clean and tidy. There are also gazebo walls, which you can position on any size of an Adventure Kings Gazebo which you can use to create more privacy or you can position them to benefit from more shade and shelter. If you do need more shelter then you can fit a Gazebo hub or a completely sealed gazebo tent which transforms your Adventure Kings Gazebo into a seriously comfortable living space. If you need to get away from the insects and pests, then a Gazebo Mosquito net is the way to go! you get the benefit of a UPF50+ shaded area, you still get the breeze, but the mozzies and bugs can’t get in and can’t get you! Finally there are plenty of other ways to make your gazebo an even better living space – LED camp lighting will make it much more usable of an evening, there’s a wide range of camping gear like swags and camp chairs to fully deck out your camp and don’t forget a set of sand pegs if you’re going to the beach – ideally the screw in type like the GroundGrabba that will bite in and make sure you’re covered!

Don’t think just because heavy duty gazebos are so solidly built that they are difficult to transport or setup. There’s a range of gazebo bag options available that make carrying, storing and transporting your gazebo easy. Whether you want a heavy duty canvas gazebo bag with tough securing straps or a clever wheeled gazebo bag with reinforced base you’ll love the fact you can rest easy knowing your Adventure Kings gazebo is protected, securely strapped down and easy to move from your house to your vehicle and from your vehicle to the middle of camp! Plus, whether you’re at home in the backyard, at the local park or at a remote camp site you’ll find that setting up your gazebo is so fast and easy, even with one person! You simply peg out one foot, drag out the opposite corner until it’s all extended, then lift and lock in each corner – in under a minute you could have a perfect place to relax knowing you’re protected from the sun and the weather!
