I go camping all the time, so I've had a lot of opportunities to explore this conundrum. I would strongly recommend bringing a cooler, a cast iron pan, a bacon press, tongs and oven mitts. You tend to have a fair bit of "chill-out" time when camping, especially if you're going with sugar-eaters who will need to rest after basic activities. So you may as well eat tasty stuff.

And while a gas stove is nice, it's hardly necessary. Find a clearing without grass, gather some rocks, dig a shallow pit if you have the implements, and you've got a fine campfire. Use rocks to set your pan on. If wood is scarce, you can google some easy low-fuel types of pits. You can also make your cold-stored food last WAY longer if you can dig a hole in the ground for your cooler. This will roughly double the lifespan of your ice.

>3 days or less: Tasty and nutritious. Assuming you have a big cooler and coconut/olive oil, as well as cast iron pan, tongs and oven mitts. All of this stuff is easy-as-pie to make over an open fire or campfire stove.

  • Bacon and eggs! Cook your bacon over open fire, take it out to drain, then drop your eggs into the bacon grease and scramble. Easy-peasy.

  • Frozen/fresh spinach/kale. Get yo' macros on. Fry it up in your pan, goes with everything.

  • Steaks. Little trickier to cook properly, you might need to improvise a little. Are you a grill master? If you didn't grunt cockily as a response, you may want to consider a different option.

  • Turkey drumsticks. Wrap em in tin foil with some coconut oil, set em on the edge of the grill for 30-or-so.

  • Fresh broccoli/cauliflower. If you want, use your pan with some olive oil to make cauliflower rice.

    > More than 3 days, especially in hot weather where cold-stored food will spoil, or if you can't get your hands on a cooler/cast iron pan.

  • First, Ix-nay on the trail mix as others here have suggested. Like 75% of trail mix is too carby and will definitely knock you out of ketosis. Almonds are good... brazil nuts are alright... cashews and peanuts are okay in extreme moderation... everything else is too carby to sustain yourself on. Make your own trail mix using mostly almonds, a small amount of sesame/pumpkin seeds, and some brazil nuts. A few dried cranberries are alright, but it's always better to err on the side of caution. Use peanuts and cashews only if you have a 30-50g daily carb limit... if you rock the <20, avoid them.

  • Second, reconsider beef jerky. Most of the stuff you buy in stores has way too much carbs from the sauces/sugar they use, so check the back. In my experience, the only ones that have an acceptable carb-level are the reduced-fat varieties, which kinda defeats the whole purpose. Jerky is also expensive as fuck to live on. If you can afford it, and you can find local-smoked kinds without carbs or with very few carbs, go for it. Otherwise, avoid.

  • Pepperoni sticks are okay, if you can find a low-carb variety. Do your maths and only buy ones that hit close to 65-30-5.

  • Hard cheeses are good. Aged cheddar has virtually no carbs, a good ratio of protein and fat, and keeps pretty well.

  • Baking! Make yourself some almond-flour/butter muffins and biscuits. Use a little extra salt and/or double bake them if you're going longer than a week, so they'll stay preserved.

  • Pork rinds. If you can stomach them, personally I find their texture gross.

  • These are my keto-camping secret to success. MCT is key, key, key.

  • It's fairly difficult to go even a week in the woods on keto, especially if you keep to under 20 carbs a day. But it's definitely possible! If you rock a campfire, dig a pit for your cooler, make sure you're fully prepared, and there's no reason for keto to have any negative impact on your camping experience whatsoever.

    > Booze. Most important of all!

  • If you enjoy spirits neat or on the rocks, you're pretty much good to go. Scotch, bourbon, rum; all great camping drinks, well-accompanied by a cigar. Gin and soda is another good option if you don't like your drinks quite so strong.

  • Music festival or drunk hiking? Get yourself a 3L camelbak, drop in a litre (or half if you're a little guy) of vodka, and fill it up with water and a carbless electrolyte mix (I recommend this one), and proceed to get hammered without depleting your potassium and magnesium.

    Don't be tempted to take the easy route and use carbs for energy. You'll crash, you'll more than likely feel sick, it's just gonna be a bad time. Keep calm, keto on, and you'll not only have an awesome camping experience -- you'll be able to take pride in overcoming a challenge. Good luck!
