Despite that, there are still some items that have the ability to enhance their outdoor adventures that much more. Coming from someone who loves travel and the outdoors, these gifts are sure to be a hit.
Happy shopping!

The Best Gifts for The Outdoor Lover In 2022
YETI Rambler 14 oz Mug
No lie, people love getting gifted YETI products. The YETI Rambler 14 oz. Mug is the toughest, most over-engineered camp mug out there. It’s no wonder why there’s such a huge following for YETI and its incredibly high-quality products.
The full-loop Triple Grip Handle is comfortable for wider hands and the thick gauge 18/8 stainless steel makes for stronger, more durable drinkware to resist dents and dings. And of course, its double-wall vacuum insulation keeps cold drinks cold and hot drinks hot until the very last sip.
Rumpl Outdoor Blanket
The Rumpl Puffy Blanket is a high performance indoor/outdoor blanket that provides optimal warmth in a variety of conditions and climates.
It’s meant to handle the outdoors, meaning it’s lightweight, durable, waterproof and resistant to odors, stains, and pet hair. How is it so warm? It’s made of the ultra-warm synthetic materials found in premium sleeping bags and insulated puffy jackets.
Foldable Portable Solar Charger
If you need battery life for any reason on your hiking or camping trip, this foldable portable solar charger is a powerhouse of a tool to have with you. It’s slim, lightweight, easy to pack, and is able to power up everything from a phone to even a laptop. The coolest feature is that it comes with carabiner hooks so you can clip it to the outside of your pack during your hike to get it powered up.

United States Scratch Off Map
Discover the treasures of the country, from sea to shining sea! National parks, major landmarks, highways and Route 66. The perfect gift so the road tripper in your life can track their travels and show it off to the world!
JBL Flip Waterproof Speaker
Photo Lens Kit
There are a lot of amazing sights to capture outdoors, and your phone camera can only go so far. Why carry around a bulky and extremely pricey digital camera which can be lost or broken? This 4-in-1 cell phone camera lens kit is super compact and has everything you need to mimic those DSLR shots. The telephoto lens takes great long-distance shots; and the Fisheye, Macro, and wide-angle lenses are fun closer shot lenses.
Multisport GPS Watch
Combine style and adventure with the new Garmin Fenix 5, one of the best multisport outdoor watches on the market. Complete with a wide range of tracking capabilities, plus built-in GPS and smart notifications, this versatile, lightweight device has you covered no matter the travel adventure. It’s already elegant looking, but they also have QuickFit interchangeable bands to take it one step further (in premium leather, metal, or silicone).
Portable Wash Bag
GoPro HERO7
Share experiences you can’t capture with your phone. HERO7 White is tough, tiny, totally waterproof—and up for any adventure.
Joby GorillaPod
My photography life changed for the better after I discovered this genius tripod. It easily attaches to different objects, so you can shoot photos from the side of a balcony or hanging off a tree. It’s bendy so packing it with you will be a breeze. Works with GoPro’s too!
Flip Belt
A travel belt is a smart traveler’s best friend. They are the best thief-proof tool for airplane travel, public transportation travel, walking around abroad, and just about everything else in between. I always, always use a Flip Belt to carry around identification, important documents, and money that I want to keep safe and right by my side.
Another benefit of the Flip Belt? It’s supposed to be a running belt. I swear, this thing doesn’t budge or jiggle at all when I run, plus it’s super comfortable!
Jetboil Flash Cooking System
This is Jetboil’s fastest-ever stove, a backcountry cooking system that cuts a full minute off of Jetboil’s best boil time. I personally love whipping my Jetboil out while camping to boil water in under 1 minute.
Fjallraven Kanken Mini
A super iconic backpack that any outdoor lover would be happy to get their hands on! This is the perfect mini travel backpack, sized to fit water, snacks, phone, and a travel camera. It’s adventure-ready, since it’s dirt-resistant, water-resistant, and easily wipes clean. Looking for something larger? Check out their full-sized option as well.
ENO Travel Hammock
A hammock is a great gift for travelers and outdoor enthusiasts. This can be strung up in the woods, between palm trees on the beach, on boats, and even on balconies. The ENO Hammock is extremely strong, lightweight, and easy to pack into a travel bag.
Teva Hiking Sandals
The ultimate adventure sandals! They can be worn for lounging, traveling, light hiking, showering, and even with socks.
The best part is that because Tevas have grown in popularity over the past few years, they come in a huge variety of colors and patterns.
Leatherman Wave+
I can’t tell you how many instances I’ve needed a nail clipper, wine opener, or knife while I was camping/traveling. Well, this is the solution. Make someone’s life easier with this 18-in-one tool.
Foxelli USB Rechargeable Headlamp Flashlight
A headlamp is whatever, but a headlamp that is rechargeable by USB? Super cool. This model is a lot brighter than their cheaper version and provides 100 hours of constant light (as opposed to 30 hours for their cheaper model).
