Camping around Hoddesdon means the Lee Valley, and specifically the stretch of river and parkland just outside town at Dobbs Weir and Rye House. This is gentle, flat river-valley terrain rather than wild countryside, so pitches tend to be well-drained grass or hardstanding rather than rugged or remote, and sites are set up with families and touring caravans in mind as much as tents. Lee Valley Caravan Park at Dobbs Weir is the obvious base, sitting right on the River Lea with direct access to the regional park's towpaths, fishing lakes and cycle routes, and within easy reach of Rye House Gatehouse and Paradise Wildlife Park for day trips.

As with anywhere in England, wild camping without the landowner's permission is against the law, so pitching up informally along the riverbank or in the wider Lee Valley parkland is not an option; stick to licensed sites, which in this area are well established and geared up for exactly this kind of short countryside break. Glamping options in the wider Lee Valley and Hertfordshire area have grown in recent years too, with pods, safari tents and static options offering a more comfortable alternative for those who want the setting without the tent-pitching.

Late spring through to early autumn is the best window for camping here, when the river paths are at their busiest and driest and the regional park's watersports centres and lakes are in full use; the flat, low-lying ground either side of the Lea can get waterlogged after heavy winter rain, which makes it a fair-weather rather than year-round camping destination. Given how close Hoddesdon sits to the M25 and the A10, it also works well as a one or two-night stop for those touring further into Hertfordshire, Essex or Cambridgeshire, rather than only as a long-stay base.
