You'll hit ranges like this as you level, some camps feel like they take forever to get to (and some really do). If you want to avoid the ride you'll need to find a group of mobs to grind on, it'll be slow and, for me, its sooo boring. I just do the leves and use the ride back to camp as a little break. If you find you need a change of scenery then by all means go do some leves in uldah/limsa. they're just a short little airship ride away ^^
