Naturehike - Star River 2

My girlfriend and I use the nature hike star river 2 and it’s been great so far!

I’ve got the Star River and rate it. Packs down quite small and weight is acceptable. I’ve used it throughout winter in Snowdonia and the Peak District and it’s been sound.

I recently got the NatureHike Star River 2 as a 2-person lightweight tent. It's a tad small on the inside (2 wide pads will touch and there'll be NO free floorspace) as well as having rather small vestibules. But other than that it's actually a pretty awesome tent actually. It was €135, only weighs in at 1.7kg (without the included groundsheet, 2.1kg with it) and fairly easy to set up, well made, waterproof and easy to pack. So based on my experience and that of most reviews I found, I'd definitely consider the Cloud up 3.

Widesea does great and cheap CCF pads and good minigroundhog stake clones. Don't cheap out on inflatable pad or down sleeping bags tho.

I’ve got the two man nature hike and it’s great, did Lands End > John O’Groats in it and had no issues.

Naturehike. Tested ko na sa camping sa Pulag yong 2P. Lakas ng rain at hangin sa campsite. Nasa 2.5 kg kilos ata yang 2P. Di kasama accessories. Mas magaan dyan yong 1P tent, 1.3 kg di kasama accessories.

Will depend exactly what you're comfortable with, and how much gear you have, but the Naturehike 2 person tents are pretty much big enough to actually fit two people. Vestibules are substantial. I mention this because I belive they are in stock online (in the UK at least). The Star River is probably better for cold than the Mongar. Very similar design but less mesh in the inner.

Was gifted a 2 person Naturehike easy enough to set up. 1 rain and a couple sprinkles and dry inside. Look for a tent with pole clips for easy assembly. Pushing rods through sleeves can try my patience. Waterproofing a tent is a simple process. Don't let that determine a purchase. Rain fly should cover the entire tent. It also helps keep the warmth in when needed.
