It may not be the perfect time to pitch up your tent, but with the Black Friday sales in full swing, it is the perfect time to upgrade your camping kit. Go Outdoors has started its Black Friday sale with up to 65% off and, as you can imagine, there are plenty of brilliant bargains on camping kit, outerwear and more!

However, instead of focusing on the best tent and sleeping bag deals— because we know that unless these have significant wear and tear you probably won’t be hunting for a new one— we’ve rounded up the best camping gadgets on offer instead. After all, these can make all the difference to your outdoor adventure.

Just remember, you have to become a member to access the low prices (even during Black Friday). However, this only costs £5 for the entire year, and buying anything will get you more money off, so it really is a no-brainer!
