I think it could simply be 'caravaning', as Gilda pointed out in her comment
I love to go camping and caravaning.

: "caravanning" is the UK English spelling. I think you could drop the outdoor as Sue comments.

RVing/RV camping

It is not simply "camping" as camping involves the use of a tent. RV camping is literally camping in an RV; I presume "caravanismo ao ar livre" means one parks outdoors rather than in a trailer park or campsite.

: IMHO ao'ar livre' is redundant, as you can only use a caravan outdoors, and 'ao ar livre' is translated as 'outdoors'

Thank you! Perhaps campsites are no longer considered the outdoors? :)

Discussion
"A prática do caravanismo, constitui igualmente um problema, generalizado por todo o país, devido á [sic] insuficiência de locais destinados ao aparcamento destes veículos"; that is, outside designated campsites/trailer parks.
