Discount Snow-Sand Peg Tent Accessories

Jump to: Our Verdict / Features / Specifications

Serious pegs for the worst possible conditions, over 30cm in length and 3cm wide so they provide a serious anchor that is ideal for keeping your tent secure in very poor conditions

Fjällräven says:

Long, wide tent peg that gives good stability in snow and sand where regular tent pegs have difficulty finding anchor. Made from lightweight aluminium in highly visible red. Comes with a strong Dyneema line with durable plastic carabiner that can be attached to a guyline or ground loop. The holes along the peg reduce weight further and make it possible to use alternative anchoring methods.

Our Verdict

I took these pegs on the Northumberland coastal path, with the intention of many idyllic nights camping on the beach. However, the reality is I only got to put my tent up on the beach twice, once to sleep in, and once to shelter from a thunderstorm. I was incredibly glad I took these pegs (especially for the thunderstorms) despite the fact only used them twice.  They bite really well into the sand, and never showed any sign of coming loose.  I haven’t used them in snow sadly, but there’s always next year, and I expect them to work just as well.
