More infoTents can be divided into family tents, outdoor tents, or military tents.
A family tent usually boasts a very spacious entrance hall, which leads to separate bedrooms. Family tents have a larger capacity than conventional hiking tents. Their disadvantage is their large volume when folded, so they are particularly suitable for camping locations that you can reach by car.
Hiking and outdoor tents are characterized by their emphasis on minimum weight. Because of this, the vestibule is usually reduced to a smaller apse, which is usually used only for storing equipment. In tent construction, we usually see dome tents or tunnel tents.
Military tents can be recognized at first sight. They are large and cover an area of several dozen m2. These tents are usually equipped with steel poles for greater robustness. Setting up a military tent usually requires a group of several people.
