Highlander Forces 2

£65.00

The Highlander Forces 2 2-person tent is part of Highlander’s specialist Military range of outdoor products. It is the heaviest tent here, but it does come in at the lower end of the price range. It might be good enough for the forces, but is it good enough for a hill-walker stepping out from civvy street to the hills? ...

Robens Summer Wind

£80.00

How much shelter do you need? Maybe a simple single-skin tent is enough? Use your trekking poles to hold the shelter up, and you get acres of space inside plus plenty of mesh vents to allow good airflow without letting the bugs in. Well, that is exactly what the Robens Summer Wind has been designed to achieve. The big advantage ...

Jack Wolfskin Gossamer 2009

£90.00

The Jack Wolfskin Gossamer is essentially a large hooped bivvy bag, but it has many regular tent features and some of its own that make it stand out. Pitching is straightforward with two short poles attached using the secure ring and pin system, and there are lots of guy and peg points available to get it stable. Inside there’s plenty ...

Lafuma Active 2 tent (2008)

£100.00

ReviewA very lightweight tent that pitches very easily as you just slip a couple of poles into the sleeves around the outside of the outer, and a couple of guy lines and pegs finish the task. Ladder-lock adjusters around the base allow easier tensioning too. This is a single-skin tent without a porch, so once you open the outer door ...

Alpinus Ararat

£119.00

A sizeable two-person tunnel tent from Alpinus, but one that is fiddly to pitch (inner-first), and which doesn’t seem to hang very well at all, no matter how many different adjustments you make. It has two good-sized porches – room for storing all your kit – and plenty of sleeping space. Ventilates well, too.

GoLite Shangri-La 2 tent (2008)

£120.00

ReviewThis is a lightweight twist on the classic ridge tent. It has no poles, so you have to use trekking poles. Pitching is easy as you just peg out the groundsheet at the corners, clip the flysheet to the same pegs then dive inside to fit a trekking pole at each end. There is room for two, with ample space ...

GramCounterGear Litehouse Solo 2011

£140.00

The GramCounterGear Litehouse Solo is an unusual design: in effect it’s a tent/tarp hybrid as it’s single-skin and has only a partial groundsheet floor with a mesh perimeter. It pitches as one and comes with no poles, as it uses a pair of trekking poles for support. The detailed instructions look complicated, but it’s easy and quick to set up ...

Nordisk Pasch Si 2000 2011

£145.00

The Nordisk Pasch Si 2000 is a roomy one-person tent, very long and wide with an average height, which is fine for sitting upright at the door end. This means plenty of room for internal gear storage, which you’ll need as the porch is quite small, but there’s still room enough in the porch for reasonably sheltered cooking and leaving ...

The North Face Rock 22

£150.00

For two campers there is nothing better than a 2-person tent with lots of space in both the inner and the porch areas, and that is exactly what the Rock 22 provides. The tent is pitched inner-first with clips linking the outside of the inner to the two poles, after which the fly goes over top, while colour-coding and ladder-lock ...

Marmot EOS 1P

£160.00

The EOS is a 2-person sub-2kg tent that pitches very easily inner-first, thanks to all the poles being interlocked with shock-cords to form one single frame that simply clips to the inner. The outer goes over the top, and ladder lock webbing clips make adjustment very easy. To allow variable peg placements the webbing tabs around the base have a ...

Exped Scout Tarp Extreme 2011

£165.00

Exped kit tends to be robust, functional and ready for the worst of conditions. Expeditions need low weight too, and this tarp has a good balance between all these points, as well as being a multi-person shelter. DesignThe Exped Scout Tarp Extreme has the familiar plain rectangular outline of a tarp, but it’s actually quite complex. The edges have regularly ...

The Vango Force Ten Helium 100 is a proven one-person tent design that stands up well to the worst of UK weather.

Wild Country Trisar

£190.00

This 2-person backpacking tent was a classic design for Wild Country (before it changed its name to Terra Nova in the early 1990s). The Trisar was discontinued several years ago but was brought back under the new Wild Country banner for 2005. It is 3-pole geodesic design, so it is very stable and very spacious. It is pitched inner-first with ...

Vango Colorado 600

£200.00

This family tent from Vango is huge, with a tall and spacious dome-shaped living area and tunnel extensions for sleeping compartments. It’s a bit fiddly to put up, but would make a wonderful base for longer trips. Plenty of windows, skylights and vents make it feel light and airy inside.

Vango Nitro 200 2009

£200.00

Vango has a wide range of low-priced tents that compete on virtually equal footing with those costing twice as much. The Nitro 200 (like most Vango tents) benefits from the Tension Band System to add extra stability. A weight of only 2300g coupled with good dimensions and that all-important price tag of £200 makes this a strong competitor. DesignThe ...

Terra Nova Bivi Tarp 2011

£200.00

Terra Nova has a history in expedition and mountain tents, but as the holder of the Guinness World Record for the world’s lightest tent with the 560g Laser Ultra 1, the brand is no stranger to lightweight shelters. They recently added several tarp models to their range, and the Bivi Tarp is something a little different. DesignThe Terra Nova Bivi ...

Mountain Hardwear Viperine 2

£200.00

The problem with most tunnel tents is that the shape is so tapered that there is limited usable space. The Viperine gets around this problem by using a unique pole configuration, which provides incredible inner space far exceeding that of similar designs. Pitching is easy, thanks to the clear instructions and the hand-friendly pegs. It is inner-pitched-first with the flysheet ...

The North Face Mica 1 2011

The The North Face Mica 1 pitches inner-first, but the poles are colour-coded and use a simple but effective clipping system, so the inner goes up easily and the flysheet attaches at the end points of the hubbed pole assembly for a quick pitch.

Big Agnes Seedhouse SL2

£215.00

This is an amazingly spacious 2-person sub-2kg tent for the weight. The secret of the success is the incredibly thin materials, which allow you to see the grass through the groundsheet for example, while the inner tent is completely made from mesh! It pitches inner-first with the poles forming an external skeleton from which the inner is suspended. The outer ...

£250.00

The Macpac Microlight is a long-standing, reliable design that is made tough for extended trips into the wilderness. Pitching is simple with a single pole that slips into a single-ended pole sleeve. Pegging out smoothes the low-profile shape even more to create a wide footprint that is very good in the wind, while multiple guy points add further stability and ...
