Naturehike Cloud Up 3 tent review

The Naturehike Cloud Up 3 tent is a 3-man, 3-season hiking tent that looks to have taken its design inspiration from the Big Agnes Fly Creek UL3. We purchased this tent originally for car camping but more recently have started to use it as a hiking tent. We have owned the tent for a little over a year now and have had no issues with it at all (we have bent 3 of the pegs). The tent has experienced moderate winds and heavy rain without issue. The inner fly has plenty of ventilation mesh at the top and makes for nice star gazing, the 20D half height walls of the inner fly provide extra protection from the wind and rain. 

The front vestibule is OK but smaller than what some 2-person tents have. The single front entrance design works well for protection against weather conditions but makes it near impossible to get in or out of the tent without waking up the other occupant(s).

If I were looking for a tent solely for hiking I would probably not pick this as it’s a little heavier than some other options available that would be just as comfortable for two people (we have never tried sleeping three in this tent), however if you are also looking for one tent to use for both car camping and thinking you might want to try hiking in the future than it’s a fantastic option with a little more internal room that some options.

Tent specs for those that care: total weight 2.12kg (1.8kg (tent & poles) + 200g (stakes & guylines) + 120g (groundmat)), 20D Sil-Nylon rainfly with a 4000MM waterproof rating. The inner rain fly uses a mesh roof with 20D walls and floor (hence the included ground mat). The poles are 7001 aluminium.
