Our take on the Highlander Respite 1

The Respite 1 is a one-person tunnel tent built for solo backpackers who want a light, low-packing shelter. It weighs about 1.9 kg and packs to a slim 44 cm roll, with a 4,000 mm flysheet and a 5,000 mm groundsheet that hold up in steady rain. The single-pole tunnel design pitches fast and the two-way zip plus mesh window give decent airflow for one. It suits walkers and cycle tourers more than campers who want to sit up and spread out.

Best forSolo backpackers and wild campersCycle tourers and bikepackersThree-season overnight tripsPacking light on a budget
Pros
  • Light for a tunnel tent at under 2 kg
  • High 4,000 mm fly and 5,000 mm groundsheet ratings
  • Slim 44 cm pack fits a rucksack side pocket
  • Aluminium poles and pegs instead of fiberglass
  • Mesh window and two-way zip for ventilation
Cons
  • Low 90 cm peak height leaves little sitting room
  • One door and one porch, so no separate gear storage
  • Tunnel shape needs pegging out well in wind
  • Single skin of space is tight for a tall sleeper

What reviewers say

Owner feedback is limited, but solo campers rate it as a light, weatherproof tunnel for the money. Most praise the waterproofing and pack size; the main grumbles are headroom and a cramped porch.

What people mention
  • WeatherproofingPraisedOwners report the fly and groundsheet keep water out in sustained rain.
  • WeightPraisedCampers like that it stays under 2 kg and rolls small for backpacking.
  • HeadroomCriticisedThe low peak makes sitting up awkward for taller users.
  • Porch spaceCriticisedThe single small porch leaves little room for wet gear.
  • Wind stabilityMixedIt holds up when pegged taut but needs careful pitching in exposed spots.

Questions and answers

Is the Respite 1 big enough for a tall person?
It fits one person lying down, but the 90 cm peak and narrow tunnel suit sleepers under about 6 ft better. Taller campers will find sitting up cramped.
Can it handle heavy rain?
Yes. The flysheet is rated 4,000 mm and the groundsheet 5,000 mm, which is solid for three-season use. Pitch it taut so water does not pool.
How does it compare with a two-pole tunnel tent?
It is lighter and packs smaller, but a two-pole tunnel gives more headroom and a bigger porch. Choose the Respite 1 if weight matters most.
Does it have a porch for gear?
There is a small entry porch, enough for boots and a small pack. Larger kit has to stay inside the sleeping area.
What comes in the box?
The tent, flysheet, 7001 aluminium poles, aluminium pegs and a waterproof carry bag. The tent weighs 1.895 kg without the bag.
Is it freestanding?
No. It is a tunnel tent that must be pegged out, so it needs ground you can stake into.
