FAQ

: Communities for campers and RV enthusiasts to share trip tips, gear advice, and campsite recommendations. Covers dedicated membership clubs for full-time RVers, app-based communities for finding campsites, and Facebook groups for families living the road life.
: Hive Index lists 3 Camping subreddits on Reddit. Most listings with size data are huge (67%) or massive (33%). We only have a handful of listings so far, so treat these numbers as directional. The main Camping topic page covers every platform we track for this topic.
: Forum is the most common feature (100% of listings).
: All 3 listings on this page are free to join (no paid membership or application gate listed). Access rules can still change on the community side.
: On Hive Index, the default Popular sort surfaces r/WildernessBackpacking, r/boondocking, and r/motocamping first. Popularity reflects visitor interest in communities on the site, not a universal quality score. Use the sort menu for Ratings, Largest, or Newest.
: Listings are submitted by community builders and researchers, reviewed for topic relevance, and updated with platform, feature, member, review, and traffic data where available. Member counts are approximate. Popular reflects visitor interest in communities on the site, with richer profiles breaking ties. Ratings, Largest, and Newest use review scores, reported member counts, and listing age instead.
