Camping 2.0: easy holidays thanks to AI apps

Finding the perfect campsite is often the first step to a successful holiday. Today, artificial intelligence (AI) makes this search easier by analysing reviews, services offered, proximity to activities and even the local weather to help you select the ideal site. Once you've made your choice, you can easily book your pitch or mobile home via specialised platforms, while planning your stay in an optimised way thanks to technology.

1. Simplified planning and preparation

Once you have chosen your campsite, AI can help you prepare for your stay:

  • Personalised packing lists: depending on the season, duration and type of campsite, you won't forget a thing.
  • Reliable weather forecasts: Weather AI sends you personalised alerts for rain, wind or extreme temperatures.
  • Meal planning: apps such as CampChef AI offer recipes tailored to the ingredients available and the type of cooking (campfire, stove, etc.).

This smart preparation allows you to set off with peace of mind and enjoy nature to the fullest as soon as you arrive.

2. Safety and navigation in the great outdoors

Getting lost or encountering danger can quickly ruin your adventure. AI makes navigation and safety easier:

  • GPS and smart routes: apps such as AllTrails recalculate your route in real time if a trail becomes impassable.
  • Application GPS

  • Plant and animal identification: PlantNet helps you identify species, avoiding risks associated with dangerous plants or animals.
  • Health monitoring: some connected devices track hydration, body temperature and sun exposure to prevent incidents.

This means you can explore nature with complete peace of mind.

3. Enriched activities and discovery

AI isn't just about safety: it also makes your stay more interactive and fun:

  • Nature and sky observation: PlantNet for flora, Star Walk 2 to identify stars and constellations.
  • Activity suggestions: hiking, swimming, fishing or games according to your preferences and the weather of the day.

Every moment becomes an opportunity for learning and discovery, even for experienced campers.

Technology can also help you limit your environmental impact:

  • Optimisation of water and resource consumption.
  • Sorting and managing waste.
  • Advice on adopting environmentally friendly practices.
  • Sort plastic waste

Enjoy nature to the fullest while preserving it for future adventures.
