Which Tent Should I Buy


If you're thinking of getting the family together for your next camping trip, read our list of the Best Family Campsites in Scotland. Ideal for sheltered campsites, family tents are usually bought when having lots of space is the key criteria for a new purchase. These tents may have 2 or more separate sleeping compartments with built in internal groundsheets for home-from-home comfort. If in this situation and you're essentially camping out of the car , it means weight and pack size is not the main consideration when choosing the tent.

  
Trekking tents for wild camping allow you to venture away from sheltered campsites and out into the wilderness. The dimensions of the tent decrease in favour of reduced weight and pack size. Designs are based on a tunnel or geodesic shape, allowing a balance of weight, rigidity and wind resistance.


  
If you want to camp in remote locations or you have all year round camping plans, looking to get a more resilient tent may be required. Mountain tents are designed for rougher weather and extended trips. The design will have a lower profile in the wind, often making use of geodesic designs for stability, rigidity and ease of pitching. What you need to ask yourself is, "Why am I buying a tent?" If you know you're looking for something specific, then you'll be in a much better positon to thin down the available options!
