The Highlander Respite 2-Person Tunnel Tent is designed for multi-day outdoor adventures, offering a lightweight yet durable shelter for two. Its key benefit is its robust waterproofing with a 4000mm hydrostatic head and taped seams, ensuring dryness in wet conditions. A potential caveat is its tunnel design, which may require a bit more practice for initial setup compared to simpler dome tents.

The Highlander Respite 2-Person Tunnel Tent has a hydrostatic head rating of 4000mm, indicating superior waterproofing.
The fly sheet is made from 75D, 210T Polyester ripstop with a 4000mm hydrostatic head, and the ground sheet is 190T Polyester with a 5000mm hydrostatic head. Both materials are fire retardant. The poles are made from lightweight 7001 aluminum.
The tent is designed for quick setup with an intuitive pole and sleeve system, along with an eyelet and buckle fixing method for secure pole attachment.
The tent comes with a heavy-duty stuff sack for durable and waterproof storage and transport. Specific packed dimensions are not provided but it is designed to be lightweight for expeditions.
The tent is backed by Highlander's 282 Years Warranty.
Yes, the tunnel design, combined with durable alloy poles and guylines, provides a stable structure suitable for windy conditions when pitched correctly.
Yes, it features a two-way zip ventilation at the top of the door, along with a mesh window at the entrance, to improve airflow and reduce condensation.
Ensure all seams are properly taped and that the hydrostatic head is not compromised. Check that the groundsheet is fully sealed and that the flysheet is tensioned correctly to prevent water pooling.
Familiarize yourself with the pole and sleeve system before your first trip. Ensure poles are fully inserted and the eyelet and buckle system is used for secure pole fixing.
Improve ventilation by opening the two-way zip at the door top and using the mesh window. Avoid cooking inside the tent and ensure sleeping bags are not directly against the tent walls.
Handle poles with care during setup and takedown. If a pole is damaged, it may need to be replaced. Minor bends can sometimes be straightened carefully.
Setup: Unpack the tent and identify the poles, flysheet, and groundsheet. Insert the alloy poles into the designated sleeves and secure them using the eyelet and buckle system. Pitch the flysheet over the poles and tension the guylines. The inner tent can then be attached. For optimal airflow, utilize the two-way zip ventilation at the door top.
Compatibility: This tent is designed for two people and is ideal for camping, hiking, and festivals. It is compatible with standard camping accessories. A removable footprint porch is included for added protection.
Care: After use, ensure the tent is completely dry before storing to prevent mildew. Clean any dirt or mud with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Store the tent in the heavy-duty stuff sack. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners. Re-waterproof seams and fabric periodically if performance degrades.
