Hiya, just found this site. I have a Gelert 2-3 man tunnel, can't remember which one but looking to get the lokon vario 6 as this year I'm taking my niece and nephews away with me. Just wondered if I'll be able to put it up on my own, kids bit small. I have no problem with my little tunnel but wonder if the bigger one will be much more difficult. Thanks.
We started camping as a family for the first time last year. 2 adults and 2 kids (2 and 3) After spendign a long time looking at different tents we settled on the Bear Lake 6 (Tunnel) as soon as we saw it we knew that it was the perfect tent for us as it still gives us a bit of family expanibility if we have another little ankle biter at some point. 110% if you can afford it go for polycotton its so quiet and warm. Although Outwell are releasing a Wolf Lake 5 if you want something slightly smaller.
Downsides are that it can be a little heavy to put up and therefore really takes 2 people to erect.
We've got both and Ive got to say our Gelert Utah is the tent we use all the time. Its a tunnel tent and although its bulkier to transport, there is a lot more living space inside, Our other tent is a 3 pod suncamp dome and its ok, but nowhere near as roomy as the gelert (or draughtproof either due to the SIG on the Gelert)

Our Gelert Quebec is a lovely tent thats fairly easy to put up. It stood up to the poor weather last year and is nice and warm with a SIG. Retails around £150.
