Description
The Naturehike Mongar UL 1-Person Ultralight Backpacking Tent is a solo shelter for trekkers who want to cut pack weight without giving up a proper double-wall tent. It weighs about 1.2 kg (1.5 kg packed), so it suits long Himalayan treks, multi-day hikes and bikepacking trips where every gram counts. The 15D silicone-coated nylon fly and 20D nylon floor keep the weight down, and the front door converts into an awning for shade, cooking or keeping your bag dry. A footprint is included, so you are ready to pitch on rocky or wet ground from day one. If you trek alone and want a light, freestanding tent you can set up quickly after a long day, the Mongar UL 1 is built for that job.
Key Features
- Very light for a solo tent: about 1.2 kg minimum / 1.5 kg packed, so your trekking load stays manageable on long climbs.
- Expandable front awning: the door can be raised into a porch for shade, cooking in light rain or storing boots and backpack.
- Silicone-coated nylon fly: 15D nylon with PU1500mm+ coating sheds water fast, so the fly dries quicker.
- Tougher 20D floor: 20D nylon floor rated PU3000mm+ adds protection where the tent takes the most wear.
- Footprint included: 210T footprint (PU4000mm+) protects the floor from stones and roots and extends tent life.
- 8.5 mm aluminium poles: strong, light alloy frame keeps the tent stable on uneven campsites.
- Mesh ventilation: mesh panels and adjustable fly height cut condensation on humid nights.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is the Naturehike Mongar UL 1 good for Himalayan treks?
Yes, for 3-season treks. At about 1.2 kg it is light enough for long trails, and the double-wall design and aluminium poles handle rain and moderate wind. For deep snow or high-altitude winter camps, choose a 4-season tent such as the Giling series.
Is the Mongar UL 1 waterproof in Indian monsoon rain?
The fly is rated PU1500mm+ and the floor PU3000mm+. It handles normal rain well when pitched tight with guylines. For long periods of heavy monsoon rain, a tent with a higher fly rating such as the Tagar (4000mm) is a safer choice.
Does it come with a footprint?
Yes, a 210T footprint is included in the box.
Is this tent freestanding?
Yes. It stands on its own poles, though you should still stake it and use guylines in wind.
