ACCESSORIES
WHILE EVERY HILLEBERG TENT comes with all the pegs, lines and poles you need, you may, from time to time, need replacements. You may also want to accessorize for more flexibility on your adventures: spare line runners, guy line, and pole holders let you customize your shelter to your needs; special circumstances may dictate special use pegs or additional poles for stability; or you may simply want different sorts of pegs. Footprints can extend the life of your tent and cut down on condensation in the vestibules, and a hank of our strong, light guy line cord is always useful.
Tent & Accessory Bags
Ideal for keeping your gear better organized, our Bags are sized for our poles, pegs and, of course, our tents. Standard versions are made from the same strong yet light silicone coated fabric as our tents, while our XP versions are constructed of extra-stout PU coated nylon. Tent Bags, which come in four sizes and have a round, sewn in bottom, are also available in Standard and XP. • Per piece •
Tarp Pole
The 19.5 mm Tarp Pole is a simple, light-
weight, standing-height pole designed
for use with Tarps and other simple shel-
ters (it works superbly with our Altai). It
folds down to approximately 52.5 cm
(20.7"), and, thanks to a two-part bot-
tom section with spring-loaded buttons, the Tarp Pole can extend from 186 cm (73.2") to 214 cm (84.3") in 7 cm (2.8") increments. It also boasts a reversible, screw-in tip that can be used with fabric pockets (such as
on the Altai), or with rings or loops (as on the Tarps). • 390 g/13.8 oz •
Poles
Your tent comes with poles, an extra repair section and aluminum repair sleeve, but spare poles can come in handy, both for repairs and for “double poling,” which gives extra strength and stability. • 13 mm (Altai side pole) • 17 mm (Atlas and Stalon XL) • 10 mm (Black Label models) • 9 mm (Red Yellow Label models) • Per piece •
Pole Holders
Footprints
Extra pole holders are needed when you want to pitch the inner tent by itself. Link these to the corners of the inner, and place the ends of the poles into them. • Set of 4 (except for Allak, Akto, Enan, Soulo, Staika and Tarra versions, which come prepackaged in Pole Holder Kits) •
A unique accessory for our tunnel tents, the Sled Pack is designed for winter trips with gear sleds (or dog sleds). It allows you to strike your tent quickly and pack it into an easy-to-manage package. • 205 cm/81" x 60 cm/24" at the opening (50cm/20" wide at the bottom) •
Available for all models except the Atlas and Altai, these tough ground sheets help both to protect your tent’s floor from abrasion and to keep ground moisture from rising in the vestibule. Black and Red Label tents’ Footprints cover the full area of the outer tent. Yellow Label tents’ Footprints cover the inner tent area only, except for the Enan, whose Footprint covers the full area of the outer tent.

Guy Line
Our proprietary 2 & 3 mm red and white guy line cord is strong, light and easy to see. Its interwrap construction inter- weaves super strong Vectran cord longitudinally with polyester, producing a cord with no sheath to slip, near zero stretch, minimal water absorption, an easy-to-handle soft feel, high UV resistance, and a stout 60 kg (132 lb) breaking

Guy Line Runners
These unique and reliable line runners come with every tent, but they can also be purchased separately. They lock securely on a range of different line dimensions and are easy to adjust, even while wearing mittens. • 2 and 3 mm sizes (fits our 2 & 3 mm guy line, respectively) • Set of 10 •
