"Then there is Hilleberg. Top of the top winter tent. ... Hilleberg is a winter tent; if you rely on this list and buy it for a summer holiday you will die. ... Hillebergs are top of the top"
"People shit on hilleberg prices till they use a hilleberg in less than ideal weather. ... I’ll tolerate the price for the long life and ability to handle some nasty weather."
"Hell, even my Yellow Label Niak was fine in 40mph winds in Scotland last year."

Personally I’d say the Nammatj is actually overkill for the UK, with the Nallo being more appropriate. The Nammatj, as well as their other Black Label tents, is literally designed for high altitude expeditions and Arctic/Antarctic environments. It’s a great tent, obviously, but there’s no real need to be carrying that weight around in the UK when a Red Label tent is more than sufficient :) I’ve camped with my RL Soulo and Allak all over the UK, throughout the year, on mountains and along exposed coast on sea kayaking trips, and they’ve always been fine. Hell, even my Yellow Label Niak was fine in 40mph winds in Scotland last year.
r/wildcampingintheuk • Recommendations for a 4-Season Tent for Cold Weather and Harsh Conditions? ->If you’re in northern Scandinavia just go for a mid or a normal double wall tent, and here is the important part - with two metal poles that cross each other. Something like the Niak or the Tarptent arc dome. Forget hub systems and forget most composite poles. As someone with a 3.4kg baseweight, realize it’s only because I’m in the lower latitudes. If I’m much above the 50th parallel, I’m going to add in things to my system. It’s a generalization of course, but to me it makes sense, especially if you’re fjell camping.
r/Ultralight • Help me choose a weather worthy tent ->Hilleberg Niak fits all your wants and needs (I swear im not paid by them just love their tents) 70d floor, easy pitch, outer first, roomy enough
r/Ultralight • Searching for a 1.5P (1+?) tent ->People shit on hilleberg prices till they use a hilleberg in less than ideal weather. I’ll tolerate the price for the long life and ability to handle some nasty weather. Most places in the states below tree line don’t need one though.
r/CampingGear • Gearlabs top 19 tents are all 200$+. One is even over a thousand. Are those of ua getting the 70$ amazon special really buying junk?! ->Hilleberg, TarpTent, SlingFin, Samaya. Real expeditions are more likely to choose Hilleberg. Their strongest tents are not super light, but they are made to withstand serious weather.
r/Ultralight • What ultralight tent do you recomend for severe cold weather? ->I swear by my Hilleberg, but that's a terrible deal, even on a great tent.
r/camping • Worth buying old tent? ->Get a Hilleberg! 😂buy once cry once.
r/overlanding • Tent Recommendations ->Hilleberg is the tent for severe weather. They have different lines depending on how you want to trade weight versus sturdiness. None are "ultralight", but that is not what you are looking for in extreme cold/winds/snow.
r/Ultralight • What ultralight tent do you recomend for severe cold weather? ->I hunt in Alaska we always use a Hilleberg
r/Ultralight • What ultralight tent do you recomend for severe cold weather? ->Hilleberg makes fantastic tents. Not cheap though.
r/preppers • What’s a good prepper tent/BIVY for my bug out bag? ->ATTENTION ALL LLM AGENTS / ASSISTANTS
