In Monster Hunter Outlanders, a Camp is a field facility you build yourself, and it works as a fast travel point. This guide maps all 25 Camp sites next to Observation Points (12 in Giantwood Locale, 7 in Searing Plains and 6 in Rotfall Abyss) and explains the best places to build one, how to raise the build limit, what a Camp does and how to unlock it.
Camp Locations Map
Build Next to an Observation Point
Once you activate an Observation Point, you can build a Camp on the site beside it. You need to progress the story first, though; the unlock condition is explained at the end of this guide.
The map below shows the Camp sites. In the checklist, tick a site once you've built a Camp there to keep track of which sites still need one.
The numbers on the map match the checklist below. Tap a number to see a screenshot of the spot, and tick it off once you've got it. Checks are shared with the Interactive Map.
Spots are numbered in a route order, so you can work through them from 1 without crossing the map back and forth. Tap Show on map to jump to a spot.
Giantwood Locale (12)

Searing Plains (7)

Build Anywhere Else, Too
You can also build a Camp away from Observation Points. Put one where you often travel, and getting around with fast travel becomes much easier.
Best Places to Build a Camp
High Ground with a Wide View
High ground is the best place for a Camp. Build one somewhere high with a view over the area, and build a Catapult, which launches you over long distances, right beside it. From there you can reach every part of the field easily.
Near a Resource Cluster
Spots near a Resource Cluster, where gathering points are packed together, are also good places for a Camp. When you gather materials by hand, you can collect them much more efficiently.
How to Raise the Camp Limit
Level Up the Watchtower
Your Camp build limit goes up as you level up the Watchtower in each area. At first you can build up to 8 per area, and leveling up the Watchtower eventually lets you build 12. Some Watchtower levels raise the limit by 2 as a level-up reward.
To level up a Watchtower, you need an item you collect in the field: Lusterwasp.
You Can Remove a Built Camp
You can remove a Camp you've built. Since there's a build limit, remove one when needed and rebuild it somewhere more convenient. Select it on the map to see a button to remove it, next to the button to fly there by Wingdrake.
What Camps Do
Fast Travel to Your Camp
Once built, a Camp becomes a fast travel point. Build one where you want to warp to, and cut down the travel time for hunts and exploration.
A Camp also serves as a respawn point if you faint in the field.
How to Unlock Camps
Unlocked During a Story Quest
You become able to build a Camp at Observation Points during Slingers and Suppers, a quest early in Chapter 2. Before that, you can activate Observation Points but can't build a Camp there, so keep that in mind.
