Camping and expedition tents MSR

Are you an adventurer who wants to explore nature, relax under the stars or climb inhospitable peaks? Here at 68travel you will find something for yourself. We offer a wide selection of tents from the renowned brand MSR (Mountain Safety Research), whose history dates back to 1969. Its founder Larry Penberthy, an American engineer, mountaineer and safety specialist, founded the company to improve the safety of climbers and outdoor enthusiasts. Larry realized that the market lacked reliable and innovative solutions for people who are exposed to extreme conditions in the outdoors. With this idea in mind, the MSR brand was created, which today offers equipment suitable for different types of adventures. Whether you are looking for a lightweight tent for quick expeditions, a spacious model for family camping or a special tent for winter adventures, you are guaranteed to find the right one.

MSR is considered a top brand for tents due to the quality and durability of its materials, which are designed to handle extreme conditions. MSR tents are innovative, with a simple and streamlined design for quick erection. They have a long history and are preferred by professional climbers and outdoor enthusiasts. They offer comfort, breathability and plenty of room, while being wind and rain resistant. These features make them ideal for demanding expeditions.

MSR offers tents for one to four people, and each model is designed with an emphasis on quality, durability thanks to the tropico shell, and comfort. The dimensions, weight and technical specifications of each tent make it easy to compare and choose according to your needs. In addition, our range also includes original spare parts to extend the life of your tent. In addition to the canopy, you can also purchase inner tents or replacement poles. For better storage, we also offer spare covers for the tents.

MSR offers a wide range of tents that cover a variety of needs and activities. Each type of tent is optimized for specific use, season and conditions.
