Highlander Blackthorn 2 Gen2

The Blackthorn brand two-person trekking tent is a mid-range solution suitable for use in the three warm seasons. The manufacturer recommends it primarily for those interested in hiking with lightweight gear (total weight is 2.7 kg) and/or on extended outdoor excursions. The model features a tunnel design (semi-barrel form factor) with a frame made of two 7.9 mm fiberglass poles positioned parallel to each other.

Hikers can rely on fairly simple assembly, which is further enhanced by the grommet and buckle system, providing increased stability (also worth noting is the relatively low, streamlined profile — 100 cm). The Blackthorn 2 Gen2 tent offers a spacious sleeping area for two people — with floor dimensions of 210x150 cm and a width allowance of 75 cm for one person. Also noteworthy is the relatively large (by trekking standards) vestibule, measuring 110 cm in length.

It offers enough space not only for two backpacks: if necessary, you can even cook in the vestibule during bad weather. The outer tent features fire resistance, taped seams, and basic waterproofing parameters of 2000 mm water column. It also includes a sewn-in floor and an inner layer with ventilation elements for proper air circulation. Other features include a durable carrying case and a clothesline under the ceiling of the sleeping area — allowing you to hang a lantern and conveniently dry clothes and/or towels. Lightweight gear, simple assembly, spacious sleeping area, and large vestibule make this tent stand out for extended outdoor excursions and bad weather conditions.
