Portability: Fisrt, examine the place where you want to camp and how you are going to reach there. A sleek tent that can be folded and tied to a backpack shall be your pick when you have to hike to your camp

If you own a compact car, a camping tent which collapses into a small space will also be a necessity. If you own a large vehicle, such as a truck or SUV, then the size of your camping tent does not matter.

You should look at how many people you plan to have in the tent as well as the car you are using to bring it. Most of the camping tents estimate the number of adults it can accomodate by assuming everyone is of average size and will sleep shoulder-to-shoulder. Many don’t like to be sleeping so close to each other. When in doubt, get a larger tent.

There are two types of material that camping tents are made from. These materials are nylon and canvas. Nylon tents are cheap and can easily be found at sporting goods stores and discount retailers. Canvas tents are more difficult to get and usually you have to request it from a business which markets historic reenactor products. These have a large increase in thier prices.

The benefits to canvas tents, however, is that they tend to last much longer and are much less prone to leaking. There are even canvas tents with a roof-height of 6′ or more, allowing an adult to stand upright in them. The negative aspects are: they are more heavy than nylon tents, occupy more space in a vehicle, and you usually need a lot of large poles to put it together. There are models that are hard for one individual to set-up alone

Price: As mentioned, the choice of material will have a great impact in the price of your tent. The more special features your camping tent has, the larger your camping tent is going to be. The most important thing to think about, is how much use you will get out of the tent, when looking at prices. If you only camp a few times a year, a cheaper tent will work. For those of you that are consistent campers, enjoy camping no matter what the climate, or take extended trips, you will find that investing in a durable and relaxing tent is a good move.
