Hilleberg
"Rajd"

   Hilleberg Rajd
  Hilleberg Rajd

More than a tarp yet not quite a true tent, the new Rajd (pronounced “ride”) is the perfect shelter for those who favor a tarp’s light weight, but don’t want to sacrifice the comfort of walls and a floor. The Rajd’s 25.8 ft² interior is comfortably big enough for two, and is a veritable palace for the solo traveler – especially one used to the confines of many solo shelter solutions. And it weighs less than many tarps and bivy bags!

Wholly constructed from Kerlon 1200, the Rajd is patterned on the first Hilleberg tent, the two-pole ridge design Keb (which was the first commercial tent to have linked inner and outer tents). It boasts impressive head room and a two door configuration – giving each occupant his or her own entrance as well as affording the flexibility to situate one door out of the wind. The Rajd is a great choice when going super light is the highest priority. Bear in mind, however, that the Rajd is not a tent, and so does not offer the same comfort or strength, especially in variable to poor weather conditions.

The Rajd also makes excellent “backup lodging” for hut trips or adventure travel. And, since it complies with many race regulations that require overnight shelters to have a sewn-in floor, the Rajd is a great choice for adventure racers and mountain ultramarathon runners.
