Reddit reviews Camping on Shabbat: How to: Build an Eruv, Bake Bread, go to the Toilet, and More

I'm with you. I used to go camping all the time as a kid, but I've never tried shabbos camping since I've been frum.

I know you build your own eruv, since it's certainly not a rishus harabbim. I have a rough idea of how this works, but I need to read up more.

That's pretty standard when tent camping. I put my tent up first thing when I get there and taking it down is the last thing before I leave.

I'm mostly uncertain how to approach the cooking, especially if one wants to make sure they have hot food shabbos day.

Here's a book I've been meaning to pick up on the subject.

I found this on Amazon. It's called "Camping on Shabbat: How to: Build an Eruv, Bake Bread, go to the Toilet, and More"

Just did it two weeks ago, over Shabbat+Shavuot. The Traveling Rabbi published a short book you can get on Amazon with a lot of useful tips.

A racoon broke in to the tent and ate my Eruv Tavshilin bread, so you might want to be careful with that.

Edit: Light source - in my case it was a solar panel with string of LEDs that turns on automatically at sunset, available here.

I highly recommend the book Camping on Shabbat by Rabbi Ben Tanny. Covers basically every topic you need to know about camping over Shabbos.
