Description
You choose Akto if you want the very lightest tent and still want to be equipped for harsh weather, strong wind and pelting rain. Fiberglass rods in the corners keep the tent up and provide the volume needed to avoid feeling cramped without adding significantly to the total weight.
1.6 kg/3 lbs 8 oz is actually not much more than what a roomier sleeping bag cover weighs but the Akto has so much more! There is ample room for moving about and for stretching in the morning and the vestibule provides a sheltered area for your equipment and to eat under cover. Three vents, two at the ends of the tent and one high up at the entrance give sufficient ventilation.
In need of a comfy bedroom with low weight, plenty of space and foul weather protection? Step right in! Akto is a multi-talented tent for adventure racers on a quest for minimal loads and for those who seek to keep their backpacks light on longer hikes into the wilderness. A Hilleberg tent for all seasons.
