TIP: The online Bushwalk Inventory System can help bushwalkers with a variety of bushwalk planning tasks, including: Manage which items they take bushwalking so that they do not forget anything they might need, plan meals for their walks, and automatically compile food/fuel shopping lists (lists of consumables) required to make and cook the meals for each walk. It is particularly useful for planning for groups who share food or other items, but is also useful for individual walkers.Hilleberg Jannu or Allak2

Been looking at these 2 tents and trying to decide on one. Any opinions or pros and cons on each would be appreciated. Most of my time is spent in the mountains well of trails. I have a Hilleberg Soulo but would like a second tent for the extra space or if the wife joins me.

I have owned the Allak for about 4 years. It is a bombproof freestanding tent as all Hillibergs are.
I also own a Soulo
To me the advantages of the Allak are
it is freestanding so you can pitch it in tight spots
It has vestibules on both sides with entrances on both sides so works really well with 2 people
It is comfortable and easy to sit up inside
I don’t really like tunnel tents but that is a personal preference as I find them uncomfortable and harder to get in and out of
I guess it will come down to a personal preference
