The frond door has zippers on both sides but it does not have at the bottom. This is a design thing and there’s a gap between the groundsheet and the front door on almost every tunnel tent.

Traditionally, tents get their rigid shape from poles crossing over the top. This helps the tent remain solid (and up) in the wind. If you have used this product please leave a review, or your comments for other visitors, many thanks! You might want to have a look at the 5-person family tents too, as these are slightly roomier than a standard 4-berth tent, and most of them have a divider between the two bedrooms. Interestingly, the Eurohike Rydal 500 is one that I can recommend as it is not at all worse than the Sendero 4, and it’s slightly cheaper too. Now that you know you need to buy an 8 person tent, there are a few factors that you should consider before making your investment. 1. Standard vs. Inflatable

🍪 Privacy & Transparency

Inflatable tents do tend to be more expensive than their standard counterparts. Depending on your budget, it may be worth stretching to an inflatable tent, but a standard tent will do the job just fine for most people. 2. Number of Bedrooms More recently, improvements in tent technology have resulted in inflatable beams replacing the need for traditional poles in tents. One of the main benefits of this is that tent poles can break over time and will need repairing, a problem you simply don’t have with inflatable tents.

Its versatile design means it's great for up to 8 campers. Alternatively, a smaller group with lots of gear could enjoy the convenience of a 'bedroom and storeroom' setup. 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. The experience with wind resistance however is mixed, to put it nicely. I already mentioned the replacement poles as your insurance policy for adverse weather, and there are more than one reports of snapping poles. In terms of all-round weather protection the fibreglass poles seem to be the weakest link. Although, there are ways to reduce the impact of strong winds on your tent, it is also true that pole tents, compared with air tents, are less able to withstand strong winds. 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: For those who have been camping for years, you might be used to the bright morning inside your tent and sleeping through the early sunrise, however, if you are new to camping and have little ones coming with you, you might be concerned that the sun shining into your tent will mean very early wake-up time (think 5 am), or even late nights (e.g. 9 pm sunset).

If you are taking a longer trip camping or have any uncertainty over what the weather will be like (you’ve got to love the British weather), then you are likely to want a bit of extra space inside your tent to sit and play games, chat or simply shelter from the rain without disturbing your sleeping set up. Size-wise the Eurohike Sendero 4 is average, almost identical in size to Eurohike’s probably most famous air tent, the Eurohike Genus 400 or the lesser know Eurohike Air 400. 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. Knowing the outer size of the tent you would like to buy is another factor to consider when choosing the right 6 person tent. The front profile is slightly angled. This helps wind reducing wind load on one hand, but makes the front ‘vulnerable’ when it rains: you must close the front door when it rains otherwise the rain will just fall in. Canopy

The added benefit of these bedrooms is that they are also cooler in hot weather and can be warmer when the weather is cool. Great for a more comfortable nights sleep. 6. Outer Pitch SizeIt 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.

At the time of writing this post I could not find a bespoke footprint for the Eurohike Sendero 4, but the Eurohike Air 400 footprint is compatible with the Sendero 4 too – get the Eurohike Air 400 footprint here. The Sendero 4 has great water-protection: the polyester flysheet received a 2,000 mm HH waterproof coating, the seams are taped. The groundsheet is sewn-in (!!) which is not at all common at this price-range. The air-beamed sibling, the Eurohike Genus 400 for example does not have a sewn-in groundsheet.

The Eurohike Sendero 4 is a small family tent with good water protection, that 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 four.

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. The groundsheet of the Eurohike Sendero 4 is sewn-in, however it is worth protecting your groundsheet with a carpet and/or a footprint that goes under the tent.
