Off road campers are designed in a way that allows the owner to venture out into the wild without concern about safety or shelter.  Every element,Off Road Campers – The Rugged Solution Articles from the towing of the trailer to the expansion of the shelter, is created with convenience and durability in mind.  Many who enjoy the rough elements of camping are hesitant to consider the use of towed RVs, but want to bring a lot of equipment with them to increase their stays.  Off road campers provide the perfect blend of amenities, durability, and yet maintain the aspects of camping that lure so many into the wilderness each summer.  If you have a 4x4 tow vehicle, then you likely want to get “outside the box” a bit when selecting your holiday destinations.  Get a model that gives you what you really want, allowing you to bring the entire family on a trip that they’ll remember for years to come.
Off Road Suspension
Probably our favorite aspect of camper trailers involves the off road suspension that is utilised.  Your towing vehicle likely can handle just about any reasonable terrain, but if you don’t have a camper trailer that can do the same, you’re severely limited.  With tires and a suspension design that is specifically tailored to rugged terrain, you can take your entire camping set-up wherever your tow vehicle can go.  It is always recommended that one of the key purchase decisions when comparing various camper trailer models is the suspension.
Accessibility Compared to Larger Units
Towed RVs are very nice to have when you consider how much shelter they can provide when out in the wilderness.  However, because they are large and tend to be very heavy, they will not follow you wherever you’d like to go.  It is much easier to make travel choices based on the areas that your towing vehicle can reach.  Nothing can be more frustrating than having to account for your trailer, and knowing that certain places are beyond your means because the terrain to get there is simply too much for your travel trailer to endure.
Weight Management
Another unique aspect that makes off road camper trailers so versatile involves the weight distribution.  Because so much of towed RVs weight comes in insulation, a feature that spring and summer camping trips simply don’t require, you can bring more equipment with you and make the most of the towing capacity of your vehicle.  Instead of glass windows and insulated walls, you instead of tent fabric and screens - this ultimately reduces the strain on your towing vehicle and allows you to venture deeper into areas that were previously unavailable.
Off road camper trailers are specifically designed to handle intense terrain.  Many other camping options will either limit the amount of convenience you have at your disposal or limit where you can travel.  Many off-road enthusiasts don’t like limitations and we tend to agree!  Because there are so many areas that remain relatively untouched by human hands, these are the camping locations that allow you to truly relax and make the most of your holiday. 
Children may want specific comforts to reduce the amount of “shock” experienced when camping for the first time.  These units can help to bridge the gap between RV or home living and camping, giving you the freedom to teach proper camping techniques, encourage safety, and allow everyone to enjoy the experience.  Remember, as we mentioned previously, always scrutinize the tires and suspension on  towed campers.  This will determine where the trailer can go, how you can get it there, and the amount of time you can spend away from home!
