A camping tent for all seasons

When choosing accessories to take with you on an expedition into the great unknown, one of the most important choices that you will make is which camping tent to purchase. It is not merely a question of whether to take one camping tent or several, but also to choose the right type of tent for the climate.

Weight is, as always a critical factor in choosing the right camping tent for your trip. Part of the decision will revolve around whether the tent needs to stand up to extremely adverse conditions, such as wind, rain and severe cold. This will, in turn dictate the approximate price bracket that the tent falls into.

If the camping tent can be split across several loads, then this will also carry an advantage – each member of the party can carry a bit of it, which means that, as a whole, each person will probably have to carry less weight.

This will mean, though, that the camping tent will potentially need to have several different compartments, so that all members of the camping party can be accommodated, and will also be a slightly more expensive model than the smaller, single skin, versions.

The final important point to look for in finding a camping tent which will be durable and comfortable is that the groundsheet is of the bathtub variety. This means that the groundsheet is folded up at the edges, and water will not leak in, spoiling everyone’s night. It is one of those little advantages that put some tents head and shoulders above the others.
