Australia is a land of extraordinarily varied natural beauty, from rugged vistas in the centre of Australia to the lush green-lands along the coast. This beauty has attracted tourists from all around the world and, of course, from within Australia. Tourists fly, go by rail and most popularly, drive all over the country, but for those that want the most authentic experience, the only way to truly explore Australia is by going off-road. The only problem with this is that going off-road really limits your choices for a comfortable nights sleep. For those that love the outdoors and travelling across every nook and cranny Australia has to offer, then there is no better option than a hard floor camper.
What Is A Hard Floor Camper?
A hard floor camper differentiates itself from other campers with its eponymous hard, and usually raised, floors. The camper transforms from a trailer into a raised platform with all the amenities associated with luxury hotels; thick mattresses, comfortable seating, a kitchenette and electricity for lights and charging your devices. Then, when you are ready to move out the next day, you simply pack the trailer back up, and you're ready to go. If you really want to enjoy the outback in comfort, a hard floor camper is your only choice.
Aren't They More Expensive Than Other Camping Trailers?
Generally, a hard floor camper is more expensive than some of the lower range camping trailers, but there are several important reasons for this. Firstly, a hard floor camper has a much better construction quality than your baseline camping trailer, and they are prepared to last decades with minimal upkeep. They also provide a level of comfort that is much greater than soft floor campers, which have all the beds, seats and other areas situated on the ground. This also means that a hard floor camper is generally easier to keep warm in winter and has more protection from bugs and wildlife. So yes, there are cheaper options, but there is a reason for the price difference, and that quality difference will show over time.
Long-Term Gain
While it may seem like a big purchase, a hard floor camper has the potential to be part of the history of your family for years to come. Not only does it give you the chance to go camping with your kids in style, but it also allows you to reach secluded areas that they could only dream of in their wildest dreams. When you consider you can get 20, 30 or even 40 or more years out of a hard floor camper, all the while enjoying the outdoors in comfort, the initial price seems very reasonable.
