Etymology

The word 'camp' originates from the Latin 'campus', meaning 'field'. Dating back to the 14th century, it referred to a military encampment or a place where troops would assemble for training or battle. Over time, the meaning evolved to encompass any temporary outdoor shelter or gathering place, often for recreational purposes. The modern sense of camping emerged in the 19th century, reflecting the growing popularity of outdoor leisure and nature exploration. The industrial revolution and increased urbanization created a desire for urban dwellers to escape the city and reconnect with nature, leading to the development of campsites and established recreational areas. Today, camping is a widespread activity enjoyed by many people, with various styles ranging from roughing it in the wild to setting up at recreational vehicle parks.
