There are tens of thousands of places to camp in the U.S., including national parks and forests, BLM land, state parks, state forests, county and city parks, and private campgrounds. Each place offers something a little different. Costs can vary greatly, as too can availability. Your needs and access will also be affected by your desire to car camp, walk-in camp, or RV camp. Each of these variations and how to successfully secure your site are discussed in this section.
