With a tent you have the freedom to sleep in incredibly beautiful places in nature; on a mountain summit with a view of the mountains, at a campsite with a view of the sea or in the forest with the treetops as a canopy. Regardless of what you choose, you will find a variety of hiking and camping tents from well-known brands with us at Outnorth. The range includes classic hiking tents from Hilleberg, quality camping tents from Nordisk and Outwell and light dome tents from MSR.

A quality tent is the base for a successful hike or camping trip, and what we mean by a quality tent is often highly individual. Tents can be found in different standards, and when we’re talking about the correct standard, it’s not always the highest quality that is best for you. Picking the right tent is all about choosing something fitted for the area you are going camping in and what types of activities you have planned.
Camping in the mountains
If you are going camping in the mountains in summer, we recommend you to go for a lightweight tent with several guy-wires, to make the tent stable even in windy conditions. It is also important for the tent to have good ventilation and a mosquito net in the entrance. You will need a tent that will shelter you from both wind, rain and mosquitos.
For those who want to go camping in the mountains during winter, it is a good idea to go for a dome tent which can stand by itself, or a tunnel tent which is steadier and easier to put up in the snow compared to old-fasioned ridge tents. You could also invest in some extra long tent pegs, to really fasten the tent into the snow.
