When going on a hike or fishing, do not forget to bring a tent with you. It is useful for any sorties on the nature, especially if you plan an overnight stay.
However, all tents are different, and today there are many varieties of them on sale. From this article you will learn what trekking tents mean.
Trekking tent - features of choice
So, the main characteristic of such a tent is its light weight. Trekking tents are very light, as they are designed mainly for walking or cycling. They are made of ultralight nylon or other synthetic materials with similar properties, compact and easy to transport.
The downside of the medal is that such a tent is not designed for heavy rains and winds, since its design does not provide for a special "skirt" or other protection from the weather. For this reason, you should not take it to the mountains or to complex long trips on rough terrain. Trekking tents are bought for rest along hiking trails, and nothing more.
Many non-professionals are interested in what is the difference between a camping tent and a camping tent. It is necessary to know that the camping version is characterized by a higher level of comfort, as well as larger sizes. The very word "camping" suggests that you will get to the parking place by car, which means that the weight of the tent is not decisive.
Among the most popular trekking tents, it is possible to mention the products of such manufacturers as Red Point, Tramp, Sol, Terra, etc. They belong to the middle class both in price and quality. However, there are more expensive models - for example, the tent "ION-2" from the company "Force Ten" or, say, "Green Hill Limerick 3". This design can boast water resistance with compact dimensions and light weight, the presence of a "skirt", several tambours, etc.
