Hilleberg Anjan 2 GT Tent

Jump to: Our Verdict / Features / Specifications

UOG TOP PICK—This GT version of the Anjan is an excellent addition with a spacious, extended vestibule. You get a fantastic tent with top-quality design, materials, and construction. This lighter-weight tunnel tent from Hilleberg will still stand up to pretty full-on conditions but is meant to be more manageable for backpacking trips where you want extra space but still need a reasonable weight. 

Hilleberg says:

The Anjan and Anjan GT models were created specifically as very light tents for use in snow-free conditions, and are especially good for mobile adventures. All have catenary patterning on the outer tent walls to ensure constant venting while still offering excellent protection from the rain, and their single opening pole sleeves offer quick pitching. Their inner tents have an all mesh door and a large mesh vent in the rear wall for continual air flow. For very warm conditions, you can fully roll up the rear wall of the outer tent, and you can completely roll away the Anjan’s vestibule.

Both the Anjan and Anjan GT models are perfect for 3-season backpacking and summer bicycle tours, and are well-suited for hunters on scouting trips or on early season hunts. They are also ideal for warm weather comfort seekers who want to “size up” but still keep the weight very low: the Anjan 2 makes a deluxe solo tent, and the Anjan 3 is lightweight luxury for two. Even the Anjan 2 GT and Anjan 3 are surprisingly light – yet huge – solo shelter options for those who hold spaciousness in the highest regard!

Our Verdict

Hilleberg’s Anjan 2 GT Tent is ideal for anyone in need of a lot more space in their shelter. As usual the details in the design, materials used and quality of construction result in a fantastic tent. Hilleberg focus their designs on quality, durable tents that provide shelter from challenging conditions. They use a label system to differentiate their tents and intended uses. The Anjan falls into the Yellow Label category. This means that the tent is the best choice if light weight is your highest priority and if you travel in the snow-free months and in protected terrain, or in warmer climates.

The tunnel design of Anjan provides immediate strength and space. However, with a focus on weight the Anjan does use slightly thinner materials and is aimed at three season use. It will still stand up to pretty serious conditions we encounter in far reaches of Spring and Autumn. The recent redesign sees a shorter fly increase the ventilation and an overall improvement in pitching making it quicker and easier to put up in windy conditions. The space inside is excellent and with this extended vestibule in the GT version, there is more than enough space for you to spread out with all your gear sitting and cooking in the vestibule. If the weather is against you.
