All 47 Pop-up Camp coordinates
The list counts discoverable fixed sites, not the smaller number of camps you can keep active at once. Safety can be revised by the live game, so read the current setup prompt if it differs from this verified field list.

How to set up a Pop-up Camp
- 01Progress until the system is available.
The official starter guide describes Pop-up Camps as a feature unlocked as you progress; it does not publish one universal quest name for every current route.
- 02Find a suitable fixed site.
Pop-up Camps are limited to designated locations, so an attractive open space is not automatically a valid placement point.
- 03Use the Camping Kit prompt.
Confirm the site, read its current safety information and establish the camp.
- 04Test the route immediately.
Fast travel to the camp, mark the target or resource and check whether the real approach is shorter than the map suggested.
Camp risk, destruction and repair
Large monsters can discover and destroy a Pop-up Camp. The game assigns a risk rating based on the probability of that happening, so the most convenient site is not automatically the most stable one. A destroyed camp can be repaired for a small amount of Guild Points.
| Site profile | Best use | Trade-off |
|---|---|---|
| Near a repeated target route | Short farming loops and quick re-entry | Monster traffic may raise destruction risk |
| Near gathering branches | Ore, plants and route-based material runs | May be less useful for the next large monster |
| Safer peripheral site | Stable fallback and preparation point | Longer approach after fast travel |
What can you do at a Pop-up Camp?
Official PlayStation guidance says Pop-up Camps provide the same options as a base camp. They are fast-travel destinations, tent access points for item and equipment management, places to start quests and return points after fainting.
- Fast travel to shorten a hunt or gathering route.
- Restock items and change equipment through the tent.
- Start quests from a closer field position.
- Return after fainting when the camp is available.
- Customize the tent and furniture as the game permits.
How to choose the best camp location
- 01Name the job.
Target hunt, repeated material loop, exploration branch or safe fallback.
- 02Measure the final approach.
A nearby map icon can still require climbing, a detour or a different layer.
- 03Read the risk.
Decide whether the saved travel justifies possible repair and downtime.
- 04Keep a fallback.
Know which base camp or safer Pop-up Camp preserves the route if the preferred site is unavailable.
Pop-up Camp FAQ
Why can't I place a camp anywhere?
The system uses designated suitable sites. Find a valid location and use the current Camping Kit prompt rather than trying to place a free-form tent.
Can I fast travel to a destroyed camp?
A destroyed camp must be restored before it can serve the route again. Use the current map and camp state, then pay the shown Guild Point repair cost.
Should I always choose the safest camp?
No. A moderately risky camp can be the better operational choice when it removes enough repeated travel. Keep a safer fallback and review actual repair frequency.
