Hauling camping gear on and off multiple forms of public transport sounds like a shit holiday, to be honest.
I've done it, was great would recommend.
Obviously I do think that there's a place for cars in the world. But most transport happens along routes that could easily be trains with good infrastructure. Camping isn't a good use of trains really tho lol
Public transport is great for commuting, or travelling between urban centres. The point of camping is usually to get away from urban centres.
The perks of sitting their without a care in the world while someone else drives the train is divine though.
People have different definitions of "camping", so this thread is going to be a hot mess.
For example: I've done backpacking ("camping"), starting the trek from a train platform, and ending up somewhere in the wilderness. It absolutely works, but is going to be impossible or not at all to taste for a lot of people. That and infrastructure limits where you can go.
Meanwhile, some people define "camping" as something more like "tailgating", which is where they pull up their vehicle right to the camping spot and may even sleep in the car. This fits with your take on things and I completely agree: this mode of camping would be a nightmare with trains, uber/lyft, and moving heavy a mile or more on foot.
The first example is a hiking trip.
