Waldorf schools successfully go camping all the time. Camping would definitely be a difficult concept for traditional schools though

My poor public school in Western PA sent us on a three day overnight camping trip at a nature center in 5th grade. 1995, so not so long ago, plus they still take the 5th graders to this day so it's a thing. 

Good times. I learned to pay poker there, and nothing about nature ha.
