Cassira 1

Product Description

The Cassira 1 is a lightweight 1-person tent and offers the perfect balance between low weight and generous space - without compromising on features. Lightweight, reliable, and comfortable: ideal for trekking, bikepacking, and long-distance hiking in varying climates.

Thanks to the practical clips and the interconnected pole set, the Cassira can be set up quickly and intuitively. A small and a large vestibule offer space for gear and provide additional protection in uncomfortable weather.

Thanks to the various pitching and usage options, the Cassira can be pitched based on weather conditions or your personal preferences. The inner tent can also be used as a free-standing mosquito net without the outer tent. If you prefer really light, minimalist adventures, you can use the outer tent with the footprint (sold separately).

If you are on the road, you can easily repair the tent pole by using the included repair sleeve. On most of our tents you will find this as a spacer by the ventilation hoods. The only exceptions are the HL and UL tents. There you will find the repair sleeve with the other accessories in the pack sack.

To make the repair in the field, slide the sleeve over the broken section of the pole and tape it in place. When you return from your trip, you can bring the pole back for repair.

When you return from your trip, whether it's a weekend or several weeks, it's a good idea to put your tent up again in a dry place so it can dry out. Be sure to clean the interior, wipe off any dirt that has stuck to the underside, and clean all zippers with a damp, warm rag. If the tent has been used in dirty and/or sandy conditions, you can lightly spray it with water to loosen the dirt from the material, coating, seams and zippers.

Although it cannot always be prevented, there are several ways to reduce or eliminate the formation of condensation.

1. reduce or remove as much wet equipment as possible from inside the tent.

2. ventilate the tent when conditions permit.

3. use the appropriate tent floor (footprint) to create a barrier against the cold, wet ground.

4. use a small sponge to wipe off condensation.

Unfortunately, condensation cannot be completely eliminated from a tent design. Cool air must flow into the tent and warm air must be able to escape. If this is not possible, condensation will form. Whenever possible, ventilate the tent, either by opening a vent in the top of the flysheet or leaving the flysheet open all night. The goal is to create a cross flow that ventilates the tent and removes the warm air.

The footprint protects the tent floor from abrasion or damage through sharp objects.

Before storing a tent or a tarp, it is necessary to make sure that everything is completely dry. While a tarp dries relatively quickly, a tent may well take several days to dry. Storing a tent or tarp that is still wet can cause permanent damage to the coating. Store your tent and tarp accordingly in a dry place.
