VAUDE TAURUS SUL 1P £520

New for 2022, this solo trekking tent looks to be a great option for tackling long-distance trails, whether hiking or bikepacking. It uses the same tripod design as other tents in Vaude’s range, so it is freestanding and easy to set up, pitching all-in-one (ideal for wet weather). A floating pole creates a protective peak for the porch area, and there’s good ventilation throughout.

VERDICT Tipping the scales at 1.25kg and with a small pack size, this tent will fit easily amongst the rest of your kit but makes for a spacious and practical solo shelter.
