Camping Stoves

Are you a lover of the great outdoors? Do you need to escape to nature to recharge your batteries? If so, camping’s the right way to go. For your adventure to be successful, you’ll need to pack all the essential equipment. The gas stove is one of the necessary accessories you’ll be taking with you. With this equipment, you won’t need to worry about finding an electric socket. At Decathlon, we considered all the issues you face while camping, and came up with these gas cooker models.

How does a gas stove work?

A camping gas stove is a must-have friend for campers and picnickers. It’s an essential tool for heating your water and food. As its name suggests, its hobs run on gas. This device is supplied with gas canisters and cartridges. You can choose between different types of gas such as propane, butane or a gas mixture.

A gas stove has adjustable power settings, enabling you to cook all kinds of food: the perfect device for camping. If you’re going to get the maximum benefit from your stove, you’ll need to have a sufficient stock of gas; it’s easier to stock up in advance than find a power outlet.

Convenient, easy-to-use gas stoves

Brands such as Decathlon offer a variety of gas stoves. Simply choose the one that meets your needs. The following criteria may help you to make the right choice.

Portable, lightweight models

Size and weight are the first criteria to consider. A camping stove should be light and mobile. These features are supplied by a one-burner camping stove. You’ll have no difficulty fitting it into your pack. It takes up little space, and is suitable for outdoor activities.

To accompany your stove, we recommend that you choose smaller gas cartridges. This will give you much more freedom to move. For activities such as cycling, backpack camping and hiking, weight is an important consideration.

A remote-canister gas stove is suitable for this use. As well as being lightweight to transport, it is stable. You can prepare your lunch quickly and easily. The remote-canister model offers great stability. It’s also easy to fit into your backpack.

A powerful gas stove

The power of a camping stove is generally around 2,000 watts. However, depending on the type of cooking you plan to do, you may need more heating power. This power also needs to be adjustable for efficient gas consumption. For example, you won’t need to adjust its power to the maximum to cook food.

For this reason, we offer the twin-burner 400S camping stove. This device is for all campers looking for a high-performance device. With its two burners, you can quickly prepare your dinner or lunch. This model is one of the most powerful offered by Decathlon. The device is supplied with a built-in regulator.

Choose your gas stove according to its use

The choice of a gas stove depends on its use. Our catalogue contains a traditional gas stove that looks like a stove, a remote-canister stove, a stove with a gas cylinder and a stove with burners. If you’re looking for comfort and an easy-to-use device, the traditional stove will satisfy your expectations. With this model, all you need is a flat surface to place the device on. Whether you’re looking for one or two burners, you’ll find the right model in our catalogue.

The freedom of a gas stove

When you’re camping or hiking, you may not have access to electricity for several days. That’s why it’s important to bring equipment that offers considerable freedom. A gas stove is one such item. Before choosing a specific model, you need to establish your daily consumption during your adventure. Simply calculate the amount of daily usage time to determine the number of cartridges to bring.

Because some camping stove are equipped with a burner and a windproof stand, the burner produces fairly small flames that are shielded from the wind. Similarly, the windproof stand acts as a barrier around the burner, reducing the impact of the wind. The combination of these two functions saves on cooking time and reduces gas consumption. That gives you more time to enjoy camping.

During your camping holiday, you may want to prepare some tasty food for your friends or family. Maybe you’re planning to serve up some grilled fish, sausages or toast? If so, we can offer you a camping stove with a multi-cook hob. It’s equipped with a grill, a barbecue, a hot plate and a wok. You have a wide choice of options with five types of cooking.
