The tent guide

by Robert Selberg

Choosing the right tent is an important part of preparing for your outdoor adventures. Here are some tips to keep in mind when considering tents like the Hilleberg Allak 2, Bergans Trollhetta 2 and Bonfus Duos. They have different advantages and you will learn what suits you with experience. Therefore, we recommend that you rent before investing in a tent that you will have for many years.

  1. Weather resistance:

    • Hilleberg Allak 2: Hilleberg is known for its tents of very high quality. Allak 2 is a stable tent that can withstand most weather conditions, including snow and rain. Dome tents like this are self-supporting and can also be used on surfaces where you cannot put ground pegs, for example on a cliff in the archipelago. It is a good option for those who are interested in outdoor life all year round or prioritize good safety.
    • Bergans Trollhetta 2: Bergans Trollhetta 2 is also designed to cope with tough conditions. It is waterproof and windproof, making it suitable for three-season use. Barrel tents like this are also a proven construction for strong winds but a little more sensitive to the direction of the wind.
    • Bonfus Duos: Bonfus Duos is a tent that has a robust construction and is designed to withstand both wind and rain. It is a reliable option for different weather conditions. Backpacking tents like this are cleverly designed to withstand harsh weather and this model has 16 attachment points for anchoring the tent. The tent fabric is completely waterproof.

  2. Weight:

    • Hilleberg Allak 2: Hilleberg tents are generally robust but can be slightly heavier than some lightweight options. This model has an extended apse with more space for your equipment. This may be worth considering if weight is a determining factor for your hike.
    • Bergans Trollhetta 2: Bergans Trollhetta 2 are designed for a relatively low weight, which suits you like us to have a lighter pack and convenience in combination.
    • Bonfus Duos: Bonfus Duos is a distinctly lightweight tent with a focus on minimalism. Despite its extremely low weight, it offers plenty of space and a generous seat height. Suitable for those who prioritize low weight and high quality in combination.

  3. Ease of use:

    • Hilleberg Allak 2: Hilleberg's tents are known for their simple setup and ease of use. Allak 2 is no exception and can be set up quickly and efficiently, which is especially important if the weather changes quickly. You travel both inner and outer tents together, which is convenient. The tent is suitable for those who want plenty of space and the best possible indoor climate.
    • Bergans Trollhetta 2: Trollhetta 2 has a user-friendly design with simple and quick set-up. This tent is also designed to easily travel inner and outer tents together. This makes it a good choice for those who want to avoid complicated procedures when out on an adventure.
    • Bonfus Duos: Bonfus Duos also have a smart design that makes it easy to set up and take down. Instead of tent poles, you use hiking poles to set up the tent. It's generous with space and you'll find it easy once you've set it up a few times.
