Comfort is the key to a good night’s sleep, and the right camping mattress can make all the difference. It’s also an essential component of the perfect camping backpacking kit, and it’s important to choose one that fits you and your partner well.
When it comes to picking the right camping mattress, there are a few things to consider: How warm you need it to be (R-value), how much weight you want to carry, and how easily it compacts. Once you have these factors figured out, you can start shopping for your new camping pad.
R-value: A higher R-value means a camping mattress will insulate better and keep you warmer. It’s especially important when camping in colder weather or if you plan to use your pad in a very snowy environment.
Foam: Another popular choice for campers, foam pads are lightweight, inexpensive, and durable. They also offer consistent insulation in all conditions.
Self-inflating: These mattresses automatically inflate with their own built-in pump and can be rolled up and packed into a small bag. Some models have alternative inflation methods for convenience, but you should always use the pump when inflating a self-inflating pad to prevent damaging the open-cell foam.
Air: Inflatable mattresses are incredibly comfortable and packable, but they’re more prone to punctures than foam pads. You can minimize this risk by using a repair kit for any holes or tears you encounter, but it adds weight to your pack and may not be as convenient to use if you have to carry it on the outside of your backpack.
