The previous review of all sorts of interesting things for tourism interested many of our readers (more than 46,000 views!), So we decided to continue this topic and prepared for you another selection of new, interesting and original devices for outdoor activities, travel and tourism. I am sure that you can find something useful for yourself.

But before I start, I want to make a small warning for those who like to write angry comments about the fact that "nobody needs this", "we walk into the taiga with one knife" and "this was not the case in our time."

Guys! I really respect your opinion and experience of survival in the wild. But let's not forget that we are all different and our needs are different too. Someone goes to the forest with one backpack for a whole month, and someone leaves in a car with their family to fry sausages in nature. Someone overcomes on a bicycle 200 kilometers a day, and someone sits in one place for days with a fishing rod in their hands. Therefore, let's just take note of what is useful for ourselves and do not waste energy on angry emotions about those things that seemed strange or inappropriate to you.

Matador pocket blanket

If you are going on a picnic, at the sea or just in nature, then you will definitely need some kind of blanket, on which you can comfortably relax. It is large enough for two people to sit comfortably on it or one person to lie down, is waterproof and highly durable, which will not allow small branches and pebbles to pierce this blanket. But the most important feature of this thing is its compactness. Matador Pocket Blankets weigh only 88 grams and when folded easily fits into a jeans pocket!

Fuloon Car Travel PVC Inflatable Bed

Every person who has had a chance to spend the night in a car knows that there is little pleasure in this. If you are an avid auto traveler or a person who, due to the nature of work, often has to sleep in his car, then take care of purchasing. This inflatable bed takes up very little space in the trunk, but inflates in seconds and turns the car's backseat into a comfortable sofa.

Scrubba Wash Bag

During a long hike or trip, you will definitely have to wash your clothes. You can, of course, do it in the river, as our ancestors did. But it is much more convenient to use, which is a portable washing machine. You just put your clothes in this bag, pour water inside, add a little detergent and shake and wrinkle everything well. The inside of the Scrubba Wash Bag has a washboard-like coating to keep your belongings clean.

Hydrapak's Water Bottle

When you follow the route, some places may have ample water, while others will feel a lack of water. Therefore, it is important to provide for the possibility of making a supply of liquid, and this requires some kind of additional containers. A possible way out in this situation would be the Hydrapak's Water Bottle, which when folded takes up a minimum of space, but can - if necessary - hold about a liter of water.

Inflatable Solar Lantern

This strange thing is most easily described by the phrase "bouncy lantern." It doesn't look very serious, but it has a built-in solar battery, is able to shine for 12 hours on a single charge, can swim and is absolutely not afraid of falls. He's not afraid of anything at all. Perhaps I would buy one.

Pocket Shower

The problem of taking a shower on a hike immediately ceases to be a problem if you took this simple device with you. is a waterproof bag that can be filled with water, hung on a tree and taken in the field. The original design of the watering can allows you to regulate the water pressure, and the black color of the material will help the sun's rays heat the water faster.

Bindle daypack

Imagine setting up camp and taking a radial excursion around the area. Or in some city you leave your main backpacks at the hostel, and go sightseeing yourself. In all these situations, a light, small backpack is needed to store the most necessary things in it. ideal for this role, as it fits in a fist and weighs only a few tens of grams.

Firebox nano

The Firebox Nano versatile camping stove looks completely simple and hardly pretends to be the most high-tech gadget. But on the other hand, it is absolutely reliable, takes up very little space when folded, weighs 170 grams and can be equally well used with different types of fuel, including firewood.

Treo Camping Chair

This item can be useful, for example, for anglers. They usually have to sit in one place for hours, so choosing the right chair is of paramount importance. The chair is not only very comfortable and durable (withstands up to 113 kg), but also extremely compact. When carried, it takes up very little space, and unfolds in just a minute.

Chairless

People are so accustomed to sitting on some kind of dais that in those moments when they have to sit on the ground, they feel somehow uncomfortable. The back is looking for support, the knees part, the legs get in the way. Designer Alejandro Aravena came up with such a simple thing to solve this problem that when you look at it you want to say: "Yes, it's obvious!" Yes, Chairless is just a strap that supports your back and knees. But it really relieves stress and allows you to easily and comfortably spend as much time as you want in a sitting position.
