NORTENT Vern 1: Solo Alpine Shelter in Three Versions
Rugged, Refined, and Ready for Anything
The NORTENT Vern 1 is a premium geodesic alpine dome tent designed for serious adventurers who demand strength, space, and stability in the wildest conditions. Built with Norwegian precision and tested in some of the harshest environments on Earth, the Vern 1 is engineered to keep you comfortable and protected, whichever version you choose.
With aerodynamic construction, multiple guy-out points, and a generous vestibule for gear, the Vern 1 is a masterclass in Scandinavian tent design. Whether you're tackling alpine missions, multi-day treks, or setting up a cosy basecamp in the bush, it is built to perform.
Choose the version that suits your mission:
