We've rounded up top sales on camping gear, grills, and hiking essentials to help you save big. Shop the deals now.

Summer may be winding down, but for outdoorsy folks and adventurists, the fun is just getting started. Whether you're planning one last camping trip, a fall hiking adventure, or hitting the road in an RV, the long weekend is the perfect excuse to snag some new gear. Tons of retailers are hosting Labor Day sales events, and we’ve found the best deals on outdoor equipment to make your next adventure more comfortable, safe, and enjoyable.

While Amazon has some pretty good deals right now, you can often find even better ones outside the e-commerce giant. Specialty retailers like North Face, Backcountry, and Cabela’s are offering discounts of up to 60% off on a wide selection of outdoor gear and apparel.

Here are our top picks for the best Labor Day deals on outdoor gear.

Best camping deal

Why we like it

If you’re planning to pitch a tent in the wilderness or set up a comfortable base camp, you'll need a high-quality tent that can withstand the weather. Our top pick is the Mineral King 2 All-Season Tent with Footprint, a four-season, two-person backpacking tent. Right now, you can get it for $374.99 at Backcountry, a 25% discount from its usual $499.99 price.

This tent is built to withstand Mother Nature, using the same expedition-quality flooring and canopy materials as Mountain Hardwear's high-end Trango tents. It's packed (pun intended) with thoughtful features, including two large doors for easy entry, a built-in gear-hanging system (to hang clothes, lanterns, toiletry kits, etc.), five interior storage pockets, and two dry-entry vestibules designed to mitigate condensation. Plus, the fly rolls back so you can gaze at the stars on clear nights.

Best emergency preparedness deal

Why we like it

Official guidelines for a basic emergency kit recommend packing a multi-day supply of food and water, a flashlight, a first aid kit, local maps, backup batteries, and a whole lot more. That's a lot to assemble on your own, and often too much for a one-day hike. For a grab-and-go solution, our top pick is the 2 Person Emergency Kit / 72 Hour Backpack by Stealth Angel Survival.

Right now, it's on sale for $119.29, a $180.66 savings from its regular $299.95 price. (It’s a damn good deal for peace of mind.) This comprehensive kit has enough supplies to get you through multiple days, including not just emergency blankets, food, and water, but also a tube tent, a survival whistle, a compass, and even a full hygiene kit with toothbrushes, deodorant, and more.

Best backyard deal

Why we like it

Believe it or not, Home Depot has some pretty good Labor Day deals going on right now, especially if you're looking to upgrade your outdoor living space. The best grill deal we found is on the Weber Genesis E-315 3-Burner Gas Grill, which is currently $100 off, marked down to $799.

That's a solid discount on a high-quality grill just in time for your last-minute cookouts. This model features Weber's PureBlu burners for even heat distribution, a pull-out grease tray for easy cleanup, warming racks, side tables, and a spacious 513 square inches of cooking area. That's more than enough room to host family and friends without scrambling from the grill to the kitchen.
