About this deal

You have two very large doors with flaps. Note that there is no mesh on these entry doors, pity. The front door allows for an awning configuration with the help of your trekking poles, see the picture below The sewn-in groundsheet makes the Sendero 4 more prone to condensation, that builds up on the inside of the flysheet. Polyester does not have great thermal properties, so condensation is very typical of all polyester tents. What you can do is make good use of the air vents – there are plenty of them. If you’d like more, especially if you plan to camp in cooler weather, this Kampa camping heater is more than recommended to fight cold and condensation, or you can find the best camping heaters in this collection: I touched on it already, the Rydal 500 offers a decent amount of space for an entire family. Sleeping area My only problem is that the Eurohike Sendero 6 is actually a better tent if you consider value for money. If I had the budget that can be stretched a bit I’d go for the Eurohike Sendero 6, no question. The Eurohike Rydal 500 is perfect for couples – plenty of space both in the bedrooms and in the living area; as well as families of up to 5 (with 3 smaller children).

You can put the Eurohike Sendero 6 on the list too, it is bigger than the Rydal 500 but not much bigger, and has great specs. Detailed review of the Eurohike Sendero tents here. The Eurohike Sendero 4 is a decent family tent that is compact, has good weather protection, it is easy to pitch and carry around. It has loads of room, however it might be a bit tight for four adults, but could make a great tent for a family of f our. It is a PE footprint with 10,000mm HH waterproof rating to keep the bottom of your tent protected from the damp and muddy ground, the pegs are included. Replacement poles

Eurohike Rydal 500 Review

The Eurohike Rydal 500 is quite lightweight and easy to carry in its carrybag. It weighs only 14.6 kgs, and the carrybag is not bigger than 75cm x 33cm x 33cm, so it fits into the smaller boots too, or you can put it in the roofbox if you’d like to. Most "decent" tents start about 4000mm ok the acceptable standard for uk tents is about 1500mm IMMSMC but no harm in been better when the wind is howling and the rain is pouring you dont want to be getting wet... Whichever you choose, the Sendero 4 to keep it to the minimum, or the Sendero 6 for a little bit of extra room and comfort, you can’t really go wrong. Just make sure you put some money aside for the replacement poles in case you need one. In the lab they stretch a bit of tent fabric over a tube and fill with water slowly till water seeps through the fabric... So let’s have a look at the features and some of the most common issues with the Eurohike Rydal 500 Who is the Eurohike Rydal 500 For?

The inner tent is a breathable polyester plus a waterproof bathtub floor. So you effectively have two fully waterproof floors in the sleeping zone. Climate-wise, note that this is a fully enclosed shell so there is no mesh on the ceiling. It may become warm in such a tent if you use it in a very warm and sunny climate. I see it better suited to a cooler environment.The Vango Icarus 500 is very similar to the Eurohike Rydal 500 – detailed review of the Vango Icarus 500 can be found here. The Vango is slightly bigger, and slightly pricier, but there is an option to attach a bespoke awning to the Vango Icarus 500 which increases versatility as well as improves weather protection. Seasons-wise, in view of its declared waterproof rating, this tent is good enough for any weather conditions in a 3-season use.
