The Highlander Blackthorn 1+ Gen2 Backpacking Tent is the ideal shelter for solo adventurers who appreciate a little extra room without compromising on packability. Designed for wild camping, backpacking, hiking and bikepacking, this lightweight tent offers a larger sleeping area than the standard Blackthorn 1, providing valuable additional space for taller campers or storing essential kit inside the tent while maintaining a streamlined, low-profile design.
Constructed using a durable 190T polyester flysheet with a 2000mm hydrostatic head, the Blackthorn 1+ provides dependable protection from rain and unpredictable weather. The 3000mm waterproof sewn-in groundsheet and fully taped seams work together to keep moisture outside, ensuring a dry and comfortable night's sleep in a wide range of outdoor conditions.
The low-profile design improves stability in exposed locations, making it particularly suited to wild camping where shelter from the elements is essential. An integrated bug net provides excellent ventilation while helping keep insects out, and the secure eyelet and buckle pole attachment system allows for quick, reliable pitching. An internal hanging line offers convenient storage for clothing or equipment, helping keep your living space organised.
Despite offering extra internal space, the Blackthorn 1+ remains highly portable, packing down to just 33 × 14cm and weighing only 2.1kg including the heavy-duty stuff sack. Whether you're embarking on long-distance hikes, multi-day backpacking trips or overnight wild camps, this versatile shelter provides an outstanding balance of comfort, durability and packability.
