Hilleberg Nallo 3 Tent

Jump to: Our Verdict / Features / Specifications

The Nallo 3 provides that additional space for three people to escape whatever the weather throws at you. With excellent materials and construction, the Hilleberg name sets the standard for quality and durability. A true four-season tent with an amazing range of features.  

Hilleberg says:

The Nallo models are known for their light weight. But it’s their remarkable strength that makes these tents the first choice for anyone needing the lightest weight tents that still offer all-season, all weather functionality. This includes hikers of all types, of course, but also wilderness photographers, climbers, hunters, and other adventurers who want to get more out of carrying less. Solo hikers can easily choose the near-palatial space of the Nallo 2 without any real weight penalty, just as two- and three-person parties can “size up” for the Nallo 3 and Nallo 4, respectively, without exceeding their weight “budget.”

Our Verdict

Hilleberg’s Nallo 3 Tent is a great shelter for three people. 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 the worst conditions. They use a label system to differentiate their tents and intended uses. The Nallo falls into the Red Label category which are: ideal for trips in any season where lighter weight is the priority and are quite capable of standing up to challenging terrain and conditions.

The Nallo is a traditional tunnel design with two main poles so it is easy to put up and with the inner already attached this can be done fairly quickly. You need a significant space for this tent’s footprint because it is certainly on the large side. The inner tent is decent for three and the vestibule area provides a load of usable space with a door that can be configured in so many ways you shouldn’t need to worry about the weather getting in. With a simple vent at the top of the door and an inventive zip vent at the rear base of the tent. Inside the inner sits 5cm+ away from the fly and there is still enough head space to sit up. 

The quality of the fly, floor, inner and every other part of the tent is obvious as soon as you pull it out of the bag, but this is also where the weight comes from. Weighing in at well over 2.3kg this could be a sticking point for many, but it is a three-person tent ready for anything. Every aspect of this tent makes you confident it will withstand any weather that is thrown at it, and despite some flapping issues in high winds this has certainly been the case so far. The poles, stitching, pole sleeves, guy lines down to the zippers are all made with serious, durable materials. All of this does add to the cost and the weight.
