If it isn’t obvious, this is a tent I highly recommend for three season (spring, summer, autumn) wild camping for multi-day expeditions where weight is an important consideration and weather is expected to be relatively mild. Lightweight, spacious and well-priced – you can’t go wrong with the Mongar. Additionally, campers love the tent’s waterproofing and durability. Users also appreciate that the Mongar 2 is easy to set up and that taller people can lay flat without touching the walls. What I Love About the Naturehike Mongar 2 Le seul inconvénient c'est que l'on doit installer impérativement l'habitacle avant de mettre le toît. Quand il pleut il serait plus adapté de mettre la couche imperméable en premier et de pouvoir installer tranquillement l'habitacle au sec. Technical specs are the usual: 20d ripstop nylon with a PU4000mm waterproofness, 7001 aluminum poles, and stakes.

The rainfly can resist up to 4000mm of water, while the bathtub-style floor will help prevent any water from seeping up through the ground. So long as you respray the waterproof coating after each heavy rainfall and use the included tent footprint, this tent should last you for many camping trips in the great outdoors. Fire Making Equipment Making a Fire can be one of the most important parts of Bushcraft or Camping, Not only does it generate heat and enabling cooking of a great meal it is also one of the most social parts of the trip sitting around with your friends. Read MoreLike many Chinese brands, Naturehike started as a manufacturer and supplier for western brands that delocalized their production to China. You can get an upgraded version with a second vent, which I highly recommend you do. It will be worth it in the long run because you won’t end up having to buy a better-ventilated tent as you progress in your camping journey. This is luxurious space for one person, and cozy for two, but still livable with having two separate entrances and vestibules. There is plenty of headroom to sit up and change clothes.

However, I've read enough positive things about the Chinese clone tents that I'm willing to try one out given the huge savings to be had. Currently looking at the Naturehike Mongar 2 (Hubba Hubba clone), but wanted to ask if anyone had experience of this and/or would recommend a different Naturehike model instead.To the best of my knowledge, Naturehike is born out of a Chinese company producing tents for MSR, that’s why some tents are very similar to those by the American brand ( Chinese law obliges foreign manufacturers to share the intellectual property of the design). Walking Gaiters Walking gaiters offer a range of benefits that can help improve your walking experience. They are designed to keep your trousers clean and prevent rain and moisture from creeping up your leg. Read more It isn't just lightweight, it's versatile; free-standing or fully guyed-out; it can be pitched inner only, flysheet only, inner first or, at push, fly first; it's lightweight enough to serve as a spacious one-person hiking tent, and spacious enough to use comfortably as a two-person tent. On top of all that, an additional vestibule is available to expand the tent further, giving additional shelter or gear storage. Not to mention how great the pole system is. I absolutely love that I didn’t have to push the poles through the wall. Just a few clips and the tent is immediately attached. It makes a world of difference! Setting up the Naturehike Mongar 2 takes significantly less time than with other models. With a waterproof coating of up to 3000mm, the Cloud Up 2 is slightly less water-resistant than the Cloud Up 1. That said, 3000mm is more than enough for most camping conditions, especially if you correctly pitch out the guy lines to prevent moisture from transferring to the inner tent.

That said, you need to respray your tent regularly to keep the waterproofing in top shape, so don’t expect it to take care of you if you don’t take good care of it! For those who want to stay really minimal, here’s the lightest tent on this list. Naturehike does its magic again, coming out with an ultralight 1 or 2-person tent under 3lbs (1.35kg) that paks as small as 18*6 inches (46*16cm). EXTRA VESTIBULES - With 2 doors for easy access and 2 vestibules provides gear storage space;vestibule can be affixed to fully closed or partially open for ventilation and sun shade.The Star River sits somewhere in between the two. So, if it’s inner space you want, then the Mongar is probably the one for you. What’s unique about Naturehike is that the company’s tents offer an outstanding balance between price and quality. They aren’t the cheapest tents on the market but they are considerably more waterproof, more windproof, and lighter than their competitors. This tent has an enormous porch area, big enough to store bicycles. This can be such a relief if you’re bike touring because you can hide your precious gear out of sight, as well as keep it dry, thereby preventing rust or water damage. The Mongar has the most headroom of any 2-person tent I’ve ever used. Thanks to the centre spreader pole, the inside of the tent is more rectangular than dome-shaped, with 80% of the “ceiling” above 80cm in height. This creates an amazing sense of space and makes the tent very liveable in case you need to wait out extended periods in the rain. EXTRA VESTIBULES: The Mongar 2-person tent has 2 doors, one on each side, for easy access. The 2 vestibules provide larger storage space for gear than standard 2-person tents; Each of the vestibules can be fully or partially closed for desired air-circulation and sun shade.
