Description

  Freestanding solo tent; remarkably light and expedition-ready

  Since the Hilleberg Soulo's freestanding construction allows it to be pitched almost anywhere, and since it is remarkably light and tremendously strong, it is ideal for almost any adventure. During its development, nearly every tester found the Soulo perfect for whatever trip it was used on. Mountaineers, both recreational and professional, will take to its strength and low weight, as will backcountry hunters and winter campers. Bicycle, motorcycle and paddle tourers will choose this freestanding solo tent for its simplicity and compact packed size. Backpackers in all seasons, long distance trekkers, and weekend hikers alike will be drawn to the Soulo's light weight and integrated vestibule, and ski tourers and ski mountaineers will appreciate its snow load handling. Tall users will love the length and remarkable overall roominess of this freestanding solo tent.

  A note on colors: Fabric dyes have natural variations, so the actual tent color may look slightly different from what is pictured here.
