Camping around Penistone means Pennine-edge, exposed terrain rather than sheltered lowland pitches, so a proper waterproof tent and warm kit matter even in summer. As with everywhere in England, wild camping is illegal without the explicit permission of the landowner, so stick to established campsites and certified sites in the surrounding countryside rather than pitching on the open moors above town. The gritstone moorland around Langsett, just to the west, is classic Dark Peak scenery, and several small campsites in the villages between Penistone and the Peak District boundary make good bases for walkers heading out onto the Trans Pennine Trail or up towards the reservoirs.

The best camping season here runs from late spring to early autumn, when the moorland tracks are firmer underfoot and the long evenings suit a walk up from the tent before dark. Spring brings fresh green to the Don Valley below the town, while a settled spell in summer gives the best chance of clear views out across the Pennine tops. Autumn can still be rewarding, with good colour in the valley woodland, but conditions on the higher ground turn colder and wetter much earlier than in the towns below.

For those who prefer a roof and a proper bed without leaving the landscape behind, glamping options in the wider Barnsley and Peak District fringe area range from simple wooden pods to more comfortable shepherd's huts, several with views towards the moors that make Penistone such a distinctive base. These tend to book up quickly for summer weekends, so travellers planning a Pennine trip around Penistone are advised to book well ahead, particularly if they want to combine a stay with the Trans Pennine Trail or a visit to Cannon Hall.
