Which mattress to choose for a tent?
Mattresses suitable for trekkers
The trekker is a hiker who goes on an adventure for several days, on long journeys: this often involves sleeping in the middle of nature in a temporary camp, called a bivouac.
In this kind of situation, it is essential to travel light so as not to tire yourself more than necessary.
This is why the mattress you take with you must be suitable.
The self-inflating mattress is the model most popular with trekkers.
The principle is quite ingenious: when you open the valve, the mattress gradually fills with air, without electrical assistance.
It thus inflates to 60%, and then you just have to manually inflate the remaining 40%.
This type of mattress often adopts a shape suitable for a bivouac tent, and its thickness makes it comfortable.
The foam mattress is a useful alternative if you do not want to risk a puncture of your inflatable mattress in the middle of a trek
.
This type of mattress is often a little narrower and less thick than the previous category, but it has the advantage of being easily compressed to take up little space in your equipment.
It is an economical and sustainable choice.
Mattresses suitable for campers
Unlike the trekker, the camper is more used to pitching his tent in a fixed place for several days to enjoy the surroundings.
When his location is in a family campsite, he also benefits from increased comfort and has access to electricity.
If this is your case, then you have more choices when it comes to camping mattresses!
The inflatable camping mattress remains a safe bet
: you can choose a one- or two-seater model, depending on the size of your tent.
It is possible to opt for self-inflating mattresses similar to those offered for trekkers, but there are also models with manual inflation.
You can complete your purchase with a battery-powered electric pump, which you can easily recharge from a socket provided at the campsite.
The foam mattress is also topical for this type of configuration
.
You can choose a thicker model than for a bivouac, and even opt for a mattress that can be installed on a camp bed.
For space reasons, foam camping mattresses are usually single models, but you can position two side by side without any difficulty.
There are therefore camping mattresses suitable for all situations, but also at all prices.
Take the time to make the choice that is right for you and you will have a mattress that can accompany you for many years.
