Product Information
Full details
The Mountain Warehouse Trek Mat is an ideal sleeping solution for backpackers, hikers, and campers who require a lightweight and highly portable foundation for year-round use. It provides excellent thermal protection against cold ground through its specialized insulation technology; however, its thin profile may not offer the plush comfort of inflatable air mattresses for those who prefer extra cushioning.

FAQs
Can I use this mat in snow?
Yes, it is designed for 4-season use and provides excellent thermal insulation against cold, frozen ground.
Is this mat self-inflating?
No, this is a high-density foam mat that does not require inflation.
How much does the mat weigh?
The mat is engineered to be lightweight, making it suitable for long-distance backpacking where weight reduction is essential.
Does the reflective side go up or down?
The silver aluminium foil side should be placed facing down against the ground to maximize thermal reflection.
Can I cut this mat to a smaller size?
While the material can be trimmed, we recommend using it at its full length of 185cm to ensure full body coverage and warmth.
Troubleshooting
Mat does not lie flat after unrolling
Roll the mat in the opposite direction for a few minutes to counteract the natural curl from storage.
Moisture on the underside
Wipe the surface with a dry cloth; the non-absorbent material ensures the water stays on the surface and does not soak into the foam.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Provides superior thermal insulation for all-season use
- Moisture-resistant bottom layer prevents dampness
- Durable high-density foam maintains loft over time
- Extremely lightweight and easy to carry on long hikes
Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup is instantaneous; simply unroll the mat and allow the high-density foam a moment to settle. The mat is compatible with most standard-sized mummy and rectangular sleeping bags.
Care instructions include:
- Cleaning: Wipe the surface with a damp cloth after each trip to remove dirt or debris.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use to prevent material degradation.
- Inspection: Periodically check for punctures or tears in the outer surface to maintain its waterproof integrity.
