Cloud Up 2 Hiking Tent

Our Ultralight backpacking tent - Designed for two people - will blow your mind away with not only its weight but with how convenient it is to use. Manufacturers have designed our backpacking tents to be easy to assemble, making the job's most challenging part straightforward. Cloud Up 2 hiking tent has many more features, which you will love. Scroll down to find out more!

One of the Most Lightweight Options on the Market

The thing about so-called lightweight tents is that they tend to get heavy. There is no doubt that they are lighter than other options on the market, but they still do not meet the mark. If not, these backpacking tents tend to compromise on too many features to reach their target weight range. That is of no use at all too.

After you look at our hiking tent, you will get an idea of what a high-quality backpacking tent is similar to. With many unique features and with it being incredibly lightweight, this product not only competes for but the majority of other tents on the market. This tent is standing at a mere 1.7 kilograms and will not be a burden for you, wherever you take it.

So, if you need a lightweight hiking tent, there is no other one more perfect for you. Whether it be long backpacking trips or something else, this is the ideal thing to carry with you. It will not strain your neck, which is a common issue when taking heavy ones.

On the other hand, companies tend to reach that advertised weight goal by cutting down on many features. For example, they don't include a proper floor or a mesh for keeping the insects out. Do you want a tent that is so lightweight that there will be little to no features present in it? That is why you should settle for the Cloud Up 2 hiking tent. It does not compromise on anything, except for the weight! You are getting everything you would expect from a high-quality backpacking tent.

A Completely Waterproof Design

We had to go back to the drawing board to make a hiking tent that was different from other hiking tents on the market but would not lose its waterproof nature. With the idea of creating a lightweight hiking tent in mind, the process was not easy, but we finally did it!

With the use of a breathable mesh, which is narrow enough for easy air transfer but not for water, this backpacking tent will hold steady, even in the rain. The tent also utilises Polyester, which is an excellent water repellent. Now, you cannot expect to use it when it is pouring down hard, in which case we recommend finding proper shelter, but a drizzle will not cause any issues for you. The tent body will not let any of the water in, and thanks to the tent fabric, you will remain fully dry and secure.

If you are looking for numbers, the tent fly has a PU3000MM, with the inner layer having the same one. The higher the rating, the more easily water will roll off the surface for those who don't know. 3000MM is more than sufficient for hiking and trekking. We have not used coatings and cut down our costs. The material is genuinely water-resistant, which is why the water rolls right off.

A True Weather Resistant Tent

As was mentioned before, manufacturers usually cut down on features to make a tent lightweight. They become so unusable that the only scenario they are suitable for is a clear day. With the Cloud Up 2 lightweight hiking tent, all you need to worry about is getting a good place to settle. Whether it be the cold or the sun shining down on you, this tent will be able to shield you from all that, without any issues. With excellent coverage, thanks to the tent floor, you will be fully isolated from the weather outside, allowing you to relax for as long as you want.

A tent that is lightweight and can handle itself in all seasons is extremely rare to find. Well, to abolish that rarity, we have brought forth this Cloud Up 2 hiking tent. With constant testing and tinkering, we were finally able to create a product that was not only good but excellent, making it one of the best backpacking tents on the market.

Whether it be the freezing weather or a place where the sun shines all year, this tent will be perfect for shielding you from the weather. You can enjoy your time in the open space of the tent, away from the extremes of Mother Nature. The tent seats itself perfectly, creating a perfect seal, ensuring that the weather will stay outside. There will not be cold or dry air entering from one side of the tent due to it not having a proper seal.

The Polyester of the tent will not harden up or start to give up after some usage. Manufacturers have designed it for years of use. So, it truly is a one-time buy because you don't need anything to secure it from the weather, and they build it to last.

The manufacturers even built the poles on this tent to last. They made them from aluminium, which is famous for three things, its durability, it's lightweight and finally, its corrosion resistance. You will not have to worry about the tent structure if any compromise it with our fantastic product. If you don't believe us, you can check out the user ratings below, which clearly state that our tent will not have any issues. Users have been using our amazing tent for years now, and it has lasted through thick and thin and is still ready for more adventures.

A Proper Double Layered Tent

You don't have to worry about our tent lacking any significant features that you are supposed to find in other popular tents, like the Agnes copper spur hv ul2. Just like them, this best budget backpacking tent has a double-layered design, which has many benefits.

You get proper waterproofing, which is something that we covered before
Thanks to a fine mesh, worrying about mosquitoes is a thing of the past, which allows for easy airflow.
The breathable design means that the inside of the tent will not feel constricted.

These are some of the many benefits of owning a high-quality ultralight backpacking tent, such as this one from Cloud Up 2.

Freestanding Design

Unlike other tents on the market, which are claimed to be freestanding ones but turn out to be semi freestanding ones, our backpacking tent is a proper one. The tent body can hold its shape without any issues. As the tent uses poles, which manufacturers made of aluminium, they will retain their shape until you disassemble them. Thanks to this design, you can pick up the tent and move it wherever you want to.

If you want to compare this design to another pretty popular one, we invite you to check out the Copper Spur HV UL2 from Big Agnes. Manufacturers have designed the tent for lightweight usage, and it is not a freestanding tent, which is a lot similar to what you will find in our hiking tents.

Smart Design Features

As a manufacturer, we can make our products as easy to use for you as possible. Well, we have implemented some extra features that you will surely appreciate. For one, we have colour-coded our poles, allowing you to identify them, even at night. That is not all. We have also added zipper windows, which will increase ventilation by a lot. That means that you won't have to worry about there being less air transfer in your tent.

The tent also has a high side, which means that snow will not settle on it at all. This design is also great because when the rain is pouring down hard, it splatters against the surface. Well, thanks to this high side design, the water droplets will land at an angle, making the sound much quieter and your experience inside the tent much better and peaceful, which is the whole point when you want to get proper sleep.

We still have a ways to go. The poles on this tent have an X -shaped design. You may be wondering, why this shape? Well, that is because it provides the most stability. As manufacturers have designed our tent to be as lightweight as possible, there is a good chance that high winds can knock it over.

Well, thanks to the X-shaped design, we can assure you that this will not be the case ever. We did proper testing on each design, and this one pulled ahead quickly. So, we chose this shape to be the one used in our lightweight tent. If you are curious about the speed of winds this fantastic product can handle, then you will be pleasantly surprised that winds of up to 38 km/h will not affect this tent at all. So, it is perfect for most natural places, even those where the winds can get quite extreme.

Large Front Entry

Usually, tents don't use a proper entry for them. The main reason for this is that a large entry may compromise the integrity. Well, we can assure you that this has never been the case. With a proper way to get inside the tent, you will not have any issues without moving it one inch. Worrying about crawling inside is a thing of the past. This way, you will also not have to worry about getting your clothes dirty. That also makes taking your gear in our out without bumping into something.

Insect Proof Mesh Used

If you like to go trekking in the jungle, you may already be aware of the endless number of insects there. Ranging from mosquitos to other insects, you need a tent that will allow you to save yourself from insect bites. Well, this tent has an insect-proof mesh that a user uses on the inside. No matter its size, it will not be able to enter, allowing you to fulfil your sleep without any disturbances. That is another excellent feature that we have used at Cloud Up in this lightweight tent.

When you look at the best backpacking tents on the market, even they don't include this mesh in the box. Although you can buy and attach systems separately, they are not even close, practically, compared to a built-in mesh system. This mesh also allows for proper airflow, which means that worrying about condensation build-up is a thing of the past.

Choice of Material

If you are going to buy this product from us, you will question whether our tent is durable enough. Well, our answer will not be a simple yes or no, like 90% of the brands out there. After you check out the materials used, you will be sure that it is suitable for you.

For the fly, manufacturers chose the 210T polyester as the primary material. The science behind the model's name of this Polyester is pretty interesting. It means that 1000 meters of this stuff will weigh a mere 210 grams. You may now be able to see how we have managed to keep our tent lightweight. The inner tent, yet again, uses the same 210T polyester. There is also a B3 breathable mesh, which is also insect repellent. It will allow for fresh air transfer.

The bottom of the tent, on the other hand, is made up of 150D Polyester. It prevents water from seeping through the ground. Although it is good enough on its own, we have still included a free footprint for additional assurance. Manufacturers made up the poles on this tent of 7000 series aluminium. Our manufacturers have hardened the 7000 series with zinc and the most robust aluminium alloy to date if you don't know what it is. You will not have to worry about them breaking, which is an issue with products from popular brands. That is something that is covered below.

Compared With Other Popular Tents

We could make claims all we want, but nothing beats a straight-up comparison with one of the most famous tents in Australia, the empire Zeus hiking tent. Starting, this tent from our competitor weighs 2.8 kg, which is a whole 1.1 kilograms more than our hiking tent. The tent has also been designed for use in three seasons, whereas ours will work in all of them. Zempire Zeus has opted for a polyester only design while we have implemented a polyester one, combined with a no see um mesh, which is lightweight and highly durable.

That is not all. You can see in product reviews that people had difficulties in setting their hiking tents up. They complained about the tent poles breaking, which is a common issue with most backpacking tents on the market. Thanks to the aluminium design of our tent poles, we can assure you that not only the installation will be easy, but you will also not have to worry about the bars failing above you.

Let's compare our tent with other products in general. Unlike tents that barely cross the mark to be called a two-person ten, users can still only use them as single-person tents. Well, that is not the case with our product. You have ample space to live in the tent without feeling suffocated.

Simple and Easy to Use

We at Cloud Up believe in making products that are simple and easy to use. Why go the difficult path when you can make things simple for your customers? That is a simple ideology we believe in it. And with this ideology, we have created the best ultralight backpacking tent available right now. The entry to the tent will be on the front.

That is not all. We have also included a dry entry vestibule, where you will be able to keep your shoes, wet clothing or things such as dirty trekking poles. This way, the interior space of the tent can remain dry. The vestibule also provides people with space where they can cook food without worrying about smoke accumulation. You should never cook food inside a tent because there is a high risk of the tent material catching fire. You don't want that!

Different Material Options

When you try to buy this fantastic hiking tent from our website, you will run into two options to choose from them. We offer this tent in Polyester or a nylon build. There is no difference in the functionality, and we priced them the same too. Let us explain why we have opted for two different materials in our backpacking tents.

The main difference between the two is breathability. Nylon lets in considerably more air when compared to Polyester. It has a hydrophilic design too, which means that water vapour can pass through easily. If you like to go camping in dry areas, you will need the extra air pass through. But if the choice has a bit more moisture, such as in a jungle or somewhere near a body of water, then the humidity will be able to pass through. That may make breathing difficult for some.

On the other hand, Polyester completely repels water. It does not let air pass through, which makes it exceptionally good at being waterproof. So, it is perfect for uses, such as in places with high moisture. Both of these serve very different purposes. You should be able to choose between the two. There is one other thing that needs more clarification. There are no other differences between the two tent types. The product you receive will have the same feature set. So, you are not missing out on anything if you choose one or another.

Liveable Design

Of course, before releasing our product to the mass market, we had to make sure that its performance and comfort was up to the general consumer's liking. Throughout these extensive tests, there was one clear result: our backpacking tent is one of the most liveable options out there. Some people don't know the exact definition of the liveability of a tent. Well, this rating can only be measured when many people use a tent, and they give their feedback on how good it is, in all regards. That includes breathability, the size of the tent and their sleep quality. External factors are also counted in, such as wind drag and rain sounds, with one of the most important ones being the waterproof rating of our product.

If it is not waterproof enough, then rainwater may start to seep in, which will lead to a considerable drop in the liveability rating. Well, we can assure you that this is not the case with our excellent backpacking tent. After all of these factors are considered, tests determine the liveability of the tent. With many trials, Cloud Up 2's tent was consistently close to the top on all charts, making it one of the best hiking tents in Australia.

Up to Three People Support

Although manufacturers have designed Cloud Up 2's backpacking tent for two people, as is advertised, in case of emergencies, even three people can fit in too. That proves that we have provided more than ample space for two people. Although the experience will not be pleasant, it will get the job done.

After all, who doesn't appreciate shelter when it is needed the most. This structure of the tent will not be compromised. You don't have to worry about people being pushed to the edges because they have to make space for another one. Tossing and turning will be difficult, but, as said before, the design is liveable.

No Centre Pole Affecting the Interior Space

Yet another pervasive issue with two people tents is that they have a centre pole running right through them. That eliminates any scenario of proper use of the space. Well, that is a worry of the past, thanks to the hard work of the people behind Cloud Up. We have designed a product that will give you more than enough space to relax however you want, but another person can do this with you. That is undoubtedly a great feature, which you cannot find in the best hiking tents on the market.

You may wonder how we have managed not to keep the centre pole and keep the tent steady. We have utilised an ark design from the above tent, from one side to another. This way, the structure is improved compared to a centre pole design, and you can also manage the interior space better.

Applications of Our Hiking Tents

It is common for people to ask about where and when they can use our tents. There are dozens of applications of our tents, with some of the most common ones being:

Alpine cycling
Base camping
Fishing

In general, you can take this tent with you when you go hiking, camping, trekking and backpacking. These are some uses of it. You can use our tent anywhere you need cover from the environment to take a breather. You can take our tent with you, and you will not even notice it is there until you need to settle down and spend the night or a few hours somewhere. Combined with all of the features that were listed above, you will be getting a fantastic experience. You will wake up fresh and will be fully ready for your next adventure.

Included Free Footprint

Although our tent does come with a base, which does a decent job of creating a layer that will prevent contact with the ground, we still have included a free footprint in the box. That is something that all of you will appreciate. After all, who does not like free stuff!

Many manufacturers charge for such a small addition, but customer satisfaction is our top priority. The fact that you will stay dry, even in the toughest of weather, means that you will never have to worry about getting wet while sleeping due to water seepage. Two waterproof layers are always better than one. That is only one of the many advantages of a footprint. The main reason for having it is to prevent any direct contact of the tent with abrasive objects. As the walls of the tent are thin, they can get cut short.

The chances are that you will set down the tent in a place where there will be sticks, stones and tree branches. They can easily damage the floor. Well, with this footprint, nothing will be able to touch the tent floor, and it will look as good as new, even after many adventures if you are one to camp on rocky terrains.

One of the Best Value Products on the Market

It is almost impossible to find a product with a good value on the market. Although the costs are low, manufacturers tend to maximise their profits by keeping the prices high. Although users buy them, no matter what, people don't know that there are similar and cheaper alternatives on the market. Take this Cloud Up 2 hiking tent, for example. It gives you unique features and at a much lower price than the competition. You can verify the quality of our product by checking out user reviews, which confirm that our durable tent has not compromised on anything and gives you the best experience possible.

We consider our product to be the best budge backpacking tent out there. Do you know why? We did not cut our costs in anything. This tent costs us nearly the same as all other companies. But we keep our margins slim because customer satisfaction is our top priority. There is nothing that makes us happier than seeing customers leave five-star reviews on our website. Although you may be sceptical about buying such a cheap product, I can assure you that you will get a fantastic product that will last you for years on end.

Why Cloud Up?

You are entirely in the right when you ask this question. There are many reasons for which you should choose us. First of all, from the choice of materials to why you chose them, everything has been explained on this webpage. That is not all. We have managed to keep our product much lower weight than the competition while not sacrificing any significant features. So, it is clear that our tent is much superior to products on the market.

Where Manufacturers Made Our Products?

We are proud to have a factory in our home country, Australia. Making one of the best hiking tents Australia, we wanted to be as close to our clients as possible. With a strict quality control protocol and the use of top-of-the-line materials, we have vowed to make products that will last through thick and thin.

Another reason for the factory being in Australia, instead of countries like China, is because there are no import charges to worry about it. We can focus on making our products as good as possible, and you will not have to worry about being charged exorbitant prices from us.

How do you figure out which sleeping back is proper for you?

What should you keep in mind when looking for a sleeping bag that fits your needs?

1. The temperature predictions

That is a vital rating that identifies the lowest temperature point so the tent can aid you in the warmth it provides. In addition to this, you must remember that you should choose a sleeping bag with a much lower temperature rating compared to the temperature you might encounter on your trip. That is why it is essential to understand the temperature ratings on your trip. Although this can be a complex task, professionals highly recommend it so you can choose the right sleeping bag for your journey.

2. The level of the desired comfort

When backpackers are en route on a hiking trip, comfort is what they highly need at the end of the day. The comfort rating of a sleeping bag is what you need to look at in them. It signifies the lowest temperature of the bag that will increase aid a backpacker in keeping themselves comfortable.

3. The sleep system

The genuine warmth embedded in the tent varies mainly from the tested temperature ratings that are dependant on multiple variables such as wind, humidity, clothing and the ground conditions that may be there on the trail weight you will be on. Your sleep system will consist of your sleeping bag, the sleeping pad, and your clothes. It is essential to consider that if you insulate your sleeping pad at a lower temperature in colder conditions, the bag may not match the rising temperature.

4. Insulation of the bag

Basically, in essence, this is the first consideration that needs to be taken care of when choosing a sleeping bag. You can either choose from down insulation bags or synthetic insulation. Both options will depend on your need for warmth and the ideal temperatures that you will need. In addition to this, you can easily carry these tents along with any cookware that you may want to take along on your hiking trip. That will make sure that your trip is made as comfortable as possible, so you are rested well after a tough and tiring day in the best possible manner.

5. How heavy is your sleeping bag

That is another important consideration when it comes to choosing a proper friend in the night. If your weight's insulation is sufficient, it will provide you with higher warmth and less weight. That is why it is essential to compare bags and their temperature ratings. In addition to this, the shape of the sleeping bag that you will choose will matter when it comes to warmth in the heat emitted inside your body. A thin bag and snug will fit ideally as it will be warmer compared to a bag that takes up more room.

It is important to remember that you will be carrying your heating stove, your camping cookware, and other belongings you may need when going on a hardcore adventure. Therefore it is essential to understand that the weight of your bag must be ideal and light to perfectly reside with your overall adventure needs.

Now that you are well aware of all the information you need for an adventurous camping trip, it is time to consider the sleeping bag you will need. The expert team at Novapro sports highly recommends the Cloud up 2 ultralight hiking bag. It is the perfect solution to all your camping needs. It is lightweight, adjustable, warm and can quickly provide you with the kind of warmth and insulation that a backpacker will need on a rough and cold night after hiking. So, there is no need to wait anymore. Head over and place an order to get ready for the comfortable trip of your lifetime.
