There are few things better than camping and spending the night out in the open underneath the twinkling stars and camping sleeping bags are one of the absolute necessities you will need for your trip. Whether you are camping with the family, taking a long hike in the woods, or traveling with a base or car camper, you will want to keep your gear light with as little camping stuff to pack as possible. Camping sleeping bags can be found in three basic types, rectangular, mummy style, or tapered with each having its pros and cons to consider.

One of the most often used types of camping sleeping bags is the rectangular shaped bag which is also the widest kind. These sleeping bags can be zipped or unzipped completely creating a blanket effect and when two are zipped together, they are large enough for two campers. Rectangular camping sleeping bags are also usually lightweight and roll up nicely leaving room left for other camping stuff. And if you have claustrophobia, you may prefer this type because of the ample room it provides.

Mummy camping sleeping bags, on the other hand, are the smallest types of sleeping bags available in the market. They are designed to be narrow and snug from the shoulders down to the feet.They may also come with a hood, enabling you to wrap yourself completely like a mummy. These sleeping bags retain heat better than rectangular bags. Some of them can be rolled up, others cannot.

Another style that is similar to the mummy style of camping sleeping bags are known as tapered sleeping bags, which are slightly wider in size but they are also easy to roll up and transport. Tapered sleeping bags also retain heat well as they stay close to the body.

There are several different points you will want to keep in mind when shopping for camping sleeping bags. Before you buy one particular bag over another consider where you will be camping and the time of year. What type of temperatures do you expect? Naturally, camping sleeping bags that are intended for use during the spring or summer will be made of a lighter, more breathable material. Always check the sleeping bag's temperature rating, which can be found on the label, before buying.

Another factor to consider is the portability of the bag. Are you going to carry it in a backpack, or are you carrying it by caravan or car? If you are using a rucksack, the sleeping bag you use should be compact enough to fit into the sack without taking in much space. The fill material of the sleeping bag is also important. Camping sleeping bags with down fill are the warmest but the most expensive and easily absorbs water, thus taking long to dry. Those with synthetic fill, on the other hand, are cheaper, dry faster if wet, but are not as warm as down fill camping bags.

You will also want to consider the type of zipper the bag has, who will be using the bag, and whether or not it has a hood. Wherever you are going there are definitely camping sleeping bags for everyone to use comfortably during your trip to the wonderful outdoors.
