highest quality while the smallest of mesh prevents
even the tiniest of nasty’s from getting in. All seams are
triple stitched and taped. Poles are aircraft grade T6
Aluminium. The downside,
the lightweight pegs don’t cope well with hard ground,
in fact, it pays to replace them with something a little
heavier … a small price to pay.
The Gronland 3 copes well with all conditions having
survived several years of Australian bush and outback
motorcycle travel; heavy rain, winds of over 100
kilometres per hour, scorching heat and even
light snow have all been thrown at it.
As a four-season tent, the ventilation is
always the greatest; hot nights can become
quite hot but that’s better than being freezing
cold. Icy nights aren’t a problem due to the
double layered skin acting as an area of
insolation, it’s surprising how well it
works.
You’d be hard pressed to find
a better tent for motorcycle
travel. The Gronland 3 can

high quality range
from this German
manufacturer.
