In the backcountry, having the right shelter is crucial. For over 45 years, Hilleberg has specialized doing only one thing and doing it well – making that “right shelter” by building the highest quality tents that offer the ideal balance of low weight, extraordinary strength and remarkable comfort. Conceived and developed in northern Sweden, all Hilleberg tents go through rigorous, real world testing before they are brought to market, and have become the first choice for expeditions and adventurers around the world.
Since its inception, Hilleberg has worked closely with various European special forces. Company founder Bo Hilleberg served in the Swedish “Mountain Hunters,” a special unit whose members were trained to operate, unsupported and individually, behind enemy lines, in all weather conditions. This experience helped both to forge the Hilleberg tent concept, and to guide the company’s philosophy that highest quality and absolute function are the most important Product.
