The t2 trek is a very spacious two-person tunnel tent designed for backpacking, trekking and camping in most areas and seasons. There is plenty of room to spread out in, making it ideal for extended stays at base camp, or for camping in winter where extra-bulky sleeping bags and clothing seem to take up all the space. In fact, there is enough room to sleep three – albeit cosily. For all its roominess, the t2 trek still weighs less than 2.5 kg, has a good balance of strength and durability, and comes at an affordable price. It is a four-season tent suitable for most climates and regions, although in extreme conditions secure pitching and anchoring are obviously imperative. The porch area is generous, but those wanting more storage or cooking space can choose the extended vestibule version – click here for the t2 trek xt.
