Helvellyn 300

My dad has done this trail before so I asked him, he used a 1 man tent but he has tried my 3 man tent and agrees the vango helvellyn 300 would be perfect, I’ve used it in the highlands of Scotland with wind and rain and it held up amazingly, it’s got enough space for 2 people and bags inside of the tent, but we preferred to store them in the vestibule. If you get yourself a footprint the tent is perfect as the vestibule would provide more dry space. It’s super comfortable two person and still spacious with three people. You can take a look at my latest post on it. I could not recommend it more. It stays dry on the inside when setting up and is very quick and easy to put up. Only downside is the door only has one zip so you have to open it almost all the way to get in from the left side, and there’s isn’t a place to hang you’re lantern from on the inside it has to go on the ground. It’s on the heavier side at 3.5 but if you split the tent, poles and pegs between two people it’s easier. I used the tent on the cateran trail (100km)

I'm assuming you're UK? Something by Vango or berghaus from GoOutdoors will do you fine. No reason to spend money if you don't need it (I killed a Vango tent in 3 weeks last year though so if it's more than an emergency tent then you may want to) Warning - last year camping in the black forest was near impossible without booking. I crossed it twice and it was slammed everywhere. The Vosges in contrast was lovely. Nice and quiet by school holiday standards so I'd head there first.
