The Robens brand was founded in Germany in 1973, 50 years ago. The brand was acquired by Oase Outdoors in the year 2000 and moves ever forward to help people fulfil their passion for the outdoors. There has been an increasing demand in recent years for high-quality, yet easy-to-pitch and understand entry-level technical tents. The Robens Route range really addresses that need by offering some tantalising features at equally enticing prices.

All of the Route range of tents use Robens' own HydroTex® CORE fabric. This is a tough, durable, 75-denier polyester fabric that features embossing, a fire-retardant treatment and a polyurethane coating with a 3,000mm hydrostatic head meaning you won’t have any concerns in the elements.

Adjustable pegging points and colour-coded pole sleeves make for simple and straightforward pitching without too much head-scratching. The lightweight yet strong anodised aluminium poles also mean you can pitch these tents with confidence.

The Pioneer 3EX is a favourite for World of Camping. The tunnel tent is stable and straightforward to pitch. It has a single side door that leads to a generous porch area, with ample space for storage and headroom to sit relaxing during poor weather. The tent will sleep 3 in the bedroom area, or is really comfortable for 2 people. Weighing in at just over 3kg and with a tiny pack size of 45cm x 20cm it really is a tent that you can throw in a rucksack or strap to a bike and head off into the great outdoors.

A very popular tent for solo travellers looking for quality and quick pitching is the Robens Arrow Head Tent. This tent is compact and extremely lightweight, but with the bedroom inner being slightly offset, there is still a small porch area for you to store your rucksack and boots. Whether you are trekking, or just want your own space on the campsite or festival, this is a great option.

If there are 2 of you, look no further than the Arch 2, this front-opening trekking tent has a large porch for ample storage of your backpacking gear and weighs in at only 2.3kg making it really easily transportable.

All of these tents have rainproof vents and mesh panels on the inner tents to keep ventilation flowing and insect free in the warmer weather.
