Ideal tents for mobile journeys in warmer conditions where the lowest weight is the highest priority.
The Anjan and new, extended vestibule, Anjan GT models were designed specifically as super light tents for mobile adventures in warmer and snow-free conditions and mostly protected terrain. And while they are indeed very light, they also have unexpected strength. During development, we set up the Anjan in our “wind machine” (a converted snow making blower), and left it for 6 to 8 hours in very strong winds. The Anjan stood strong with no problem.
Ideal for 3 season backpacking trips and summer bicycle tours, the Anjan models are also an excellent choice for hunters on scouting trips or on early season, minimalist hunts. For warm weather comfort seekers, the Anjan 2 and 3 are so light that they can easily be used as palace-sized solo tents. Even the Anjan 2 GT makes a surprisingly light – yet huge – solo shelter for those who hold spaciousness in the highest regard!
And for those fixated on carrying the lightest weight – and who are actively willing to relinquish warmth and overall ease of handling – Anjan models are quite capable of taking on the cold and wet bluster of spring and fall while contributing to a much lighter backpack!

Great tent! We spent 15 days in Corsica (GR20) at the end of September. There was a full range of weather from sunny days to snow at the night, and, of course, rain. But with this tent, we are filling protected in any conditions. It is very spacy - there is enough space for 3 people + a dog (not very small). But you will need enough space to set up the tent - anyway, we haven't any issues with it on GR20. So - must have!

Super light hiking tent. Weighing a couple of pounds is definitely the best you can get. Very spacious abscess. Oddly, the footprint doesn’t run under the absid (I wonder about this solution, but I developed my own sequel to it). Lightness, on the other hand, means stripped features, and so, for example, the door opening of an inner tent is just a mosquito net. This, combined with the ventilation-promoting shapes at the bottom of the outdoor tent (not fully above the ground), also means a fairly large air flow inside the tent. Awesome feature in the summer heat, while in cooler weather you would like a closable intermediate fabric. The red version folds the light funny inside the tent. I would take a different color in the future, although red for marking the campsite is the best color.
Suitable for an excellent hiking tent, but if one tent should go, I would choose a heavier one.
