Challenger lightweight hiking tent

The Wilsa Challenger lightweight 2-person hiking tent offers an excellent balance of quality, low weight and price.

 

It is an affordable option for anyone seeking a lightweight, relatively spacious and comfortable tent.

The internal space is optimised by the pole arrangement. This lightweight hiking tent uses 2 light, strong aluminium poles: a large pole fitted diagonally and a small pole fitted across the middle of the tent to tension the walls and increase living space.

It offers good waterproofing thanks to its PU-coated ripstop nylon, with a 2,000 mm flysheet rating and 3,000 mm groundsheet rating, reinforced by sealed seams.

The Wilsa Challenger tent also stands out for its practicality:

- 2 side doors allow 2 occupants to come and go without getting in each other's way;

- 2 large porches shelter your gear;

- an open-flysheet stargazing system holds the flysheet doors open in fine weather while keeping the inner mesh doors closed if needed;

- a front vent ensures good ventilation when the flysheet is closed;

- internal pockets.

To save even more weight, consider the MSR Hubba Hubba NX lightweight hiking tent.
