Top 10 best tents for tourism and recreation



best tents for hiking and camping

Contents:

  •  Spacious, comfortable and multifunctional tents are designed for comfortable outdoor recreation. Many of them offer enough space to put up cots or even chairs and a card game table on a rainy day.

  •  After studying user reviews and ratings of various models on Yandex.Market, Ozone, Wildberries and Sportmaster, I have compiled the top 10 best tents for tourism and camping in 2021.

How to choose a camping tent: a buyer's guide

Internal dimensions and capacity

  •  It is desirable that each person should be 60-80 cm wide. And it is worth taking a model with a margin of space, especially if it does not have a vestibule. After all, shoes and backpacks also need to be stored somewhere.

  •  You also need to take into account the dimensions of the floor and the height of the ceiling.

  • Paying attention to the dimensions of the floor will give you a better idea of how many sleeping mats will fit in your tent.
  • The height of the ceiling may seem unimportant – until the weather changes and you find yourself squatting inside the tent, for about 5-6 hours. At this point, you will be happy that you can at least sit comfortably and maybe even stand in a large family tent.

Weight and size per package

  •  If you plan to transport the tent in a car, then its weight and package size do not matter much. In this case, it would be wise to give up light weight in favor of the strength and durability of the product.

  •  Tents weighing up to 3 kg are a great option for hiking or cycling. But because of the lightweight materials, they are not as strong as heavier tents and are easy to scratch or pierce with anything sharp. Store them carefully.

Resistant to weather conditions

  •  This is one of the main reasons to invest more in a tent. Inexpensive models do an excellent job with short-term rain and wind. But if you are going to an area where heavy rains often fall and winds blow from four sides, then you should not save on a good tourist tent. She must be:

  • two-layer – from an external water-repellent layer and a light internal one,
  • three-season (spring-summer-autumn), with a dense awning and a reinforced frame,
  • with a frame made of anodized aluminum or strong and lightweight carbon fiber or fiberglass,
  • with water resistance of the awning and bottom from 3000 mm of water column.

  • single layer, geometry: hemisphere
  • outer frame, fiberglass poles

  • water resistance of the awning: 1000 mm w.st
  • bottom water resistance: 10000 mm w.st
  • external dimensions (LxWxH) 150x205x105 cm

  •  If you're planning on camping once or twice a summer, then you don't need big, fancy tents. But Lite Dome 2 is an ideal budget option.

  •  This tent has a versatile hemispherical shape that can withstand both wind and rain, equipped with a mosquito net and internal pockets for storing small items. You can hang a lantern inside the tent. The bottom is made of reinforced polyethylene and does not allow water to pass from the ground. A handy carrying case with two handles makes it easy to carry the tent rolled up.

  •  What are you sacrificing by choosing such an inexpensive tent? Users have found that the awning material cannot handle heavy rain. And if it is cool outside, then condensation forms on the ceiling of the tent, which can drain onto things.
