Most people in Hong Kong have been hunkering down and staying home since January&nbsp;this year —for obvious reasons. With overseas travelling out of the picture,&nbsp;staycations have been trending.&nbsp; Although, relishing in&nbsp;the comforts of a five-star hotel is often enticing, it may not appeal to families with active lifestyles and adventurous spirits. But worry not —Hong Kong has plenty of&nbsp;green lands and open seas to revel in that could equate to a holiday in Thailand or the Philippines. Here are some ideas for planning an exciting staycation for the adventurous family:

Equipped with Bose sound systems, a BBQ grill, and accommodations that vary between two to four cabins, you can enjoy the luxury of quality and space away from the city.

Adventure Weekend: A guide to exciting staycations for the family

Cramped quarters, shared body odours and long, dark treks to the nearest chemical toilet are just the headline unpleasantries that are seen as the true hallmarks of any camping holiday. All that, though, may be about to be consigned to the past thanks to a new line of innovative smart tents all rolled out under the reassuring <a href="cinchpopuptents.com">Cinch!</a> branding.
<img decoding="async" loading="lazy" class="aligncenter wp-image-37655 size-full" src="//www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/07/Cinch-pop-up-tents-offers-home-tech-comforts.jpg" alt="Cinch! pop up tents offers home tech comforts" width="700" height="466" srcset="https://www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/07/Cinch-pop-up-tents-offers-home-tech-comforts.jpg 700w, https://www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/07/Cinch-pop-up-tents-offers-home-tech-comforts-200x133.jpg 200w, https://www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/07/Cinch-pop-up-tents-offers-home-tech-comforts-421x280.jpg 421w, https://www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/07/Cinch-pop-up-tents-offers-home-tech-comforts-120x80.jpg 120w, https://www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/07/Cinch-pop-up-tents-offers-home-tech-comforts-500x333.jpg 500w, https://www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/07/Cinch-pop-up-tents-offers-home-tech-comforts-400x266.jpg 400w, https://www.gafencushop.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/07/Cinch-pop-up-tents-offers-home-tech-comforts-600x399.jpg 600w" sizes="(max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px" />
Originally launched back in 2009 by Jake Jackson, a UK-based outdoor enthusiast, the line has proved a runaway success. With his initial concept now having undergone four substantial upgrades, each more tech-savvy than the last, this latest generation is said to make good on his promise that camping doesn’t necessarily require you to forsake all of your technological home comforts.
In line with this, each Cinch! tent – when fully-equipped with all the recommended accessories – sees life under canvas given a truly 21st century makeover. LED ceiling lights? Check. Climate control? Check. USB charging capabilities? Check. Better yet, all this electro-connectiveness is powered by the hyper-efficient solar panels lining the tent roof, with 13,000mAh portable battery pack available as a handy back-up.

Given that these tents can ‘pop-up’ and be dismantled in mere seconds, all of those truly opposed to getting back to nature are going to have to work far harder on their excuses in future.
