With the wide choice of styles and colours available on the market it can be a bit confusing on which type of tent to purchase, in this article we will endeavour to give you information about the type of tent you will need for your camping or hiking trip.
When going on a hiking trip the weight of the tent should be a major factor in your choice of which two person tent is the right one, a two person tent can be around the 3.5kg range, but this can vary because of the different types of material used by manufactures to make the tents. The actual weight of the tent is in relation to the actual size of tent, they come in various sizes for you to choose from, so you should do some research on the internet to find out which one is the lightest and most durable to best suit your needs when hiking. Tents can suffer from condensation at times so it is important when looking for a tent that you make sure that it has a vent at the top, also there should be a flap attached to the tent so that you can cover the vent opening to stop the rain entering the tent, this will also let the air circulate while sat in your tent in bad weather.
You will also require a fly sheet for your tent, if you expect doing a lot of hiking on your holiday then you should look for a silicone nylon fly sheet. This type of fly sheet is extremely durable and very light to carry and is slightly more expensive than other types, but the weight you will save with one of these is worth the extra cost. You should also consider the height of the tent when pitched,you should be able to sit up without your head touching the tent, this makes it much more comfortable if you ever get caught out in a long spell of bad weather. Another consideration when choosing your tent is how easy it is to pitch up, if you get caught out in a sudden downpour then it is an advantage to get your tent up quickly. If it is pouring down with rain you need a tent that is very easy to set up so you can quickly get shelter. You should also make sure your two person tent has a vestibule added to it, because you will need somewhere to store all your wet gear instead of bringing it inside the tent.
Going on you're first camping trip can be exiting and loads of fun, the tips above can help you make the right decisions on choosing the right, two person tent to make you're camping trip in the great outdoors a wonderful experience
