PRACTICAL CAMPING TIPS

ADVENTURES WITH NATURE

 

 

 

Whether camping in the damp rainforests, on sunny beaches or atop mountain peaks, there are a few easy environmental tips to keep in mind to protect and preserve Malaysia's camp sites.

 

Always choose a clear camping site free of debris and away from rotting trees.

 

Never cut down vegetation in order to make way for a camp site.

 

Whenever possible, try to avoid overusing popular camping sites and select an alternative location in order to prevent soil compaction.

 

Bring along reusable plastic cups and plates.

 

Minimize the use of detergents for washing and bathing and be sure to do this downstream from water collection areas.

 

Pit latrines are to be dug well away from any water sources and the camp site. It is to be filled in before you leave the area.

 

Rubbish is to be collected and carried away to be thrown away when you leave, not simply buried.
