NORTENT Mjodhall 16 is a spacious and solid tent. An extremly large "home" for 16 people with 4 entrances. Mjodhall 16 is designed for the most inhospitable conditions. Spacious but at the same time somewhat mobile and light in relation to what this tent has to offer. We have designed that the tent can be packed in modules and thus distributed among several people. Mjodhall 16 has a total of 8 poles that "runs" over the tent in such a way that they form a very strong, stable and steady "skeleton". In addition to the fact that this tent is free-standing with eight aluminum poles, The Mjodhall provides a hugely strong construction that can withstand severe weather and heavy snow-load. A "cabin" to use in the wild.
Our inspiration for this tent comes from an ancient Nordic hall for Viking kings. The Mjødhall was normally in the center of the village, providing a spacious and luxurious shelter for the Viking chief and his people. As such it was considered the safest place in the village.
Like all our tents, the Mjodhall also has storm-flaps all around the tent to make the tent even more stable with snow, sand or stones over the flaps. A 4-season tent that provides shelter and protection in most conditions. Summer and winter. Even without the guylines, the tent stands very firmly in the wind. But when needed, the tent has a total of 18 guylines. A truly versatile 16 man tent for the vast majority of expeditions and basecamps.
Although this is a spacious tent with sleeps for 16 people, the tent is quickly and easily to set up if you are alone, even in bad weather. If you choose the inner-tent (purchased separately) this can be fitted together with the tent itself and carried mounted in the backpack. However, if one wishes to carry inner tent and outer tent separately to distribute weight and space, this can easily be dismantled / mounted and carried separately in separate backpacks. As with the poles. An important design-detaill to notice is that we have designed the poles on the outside of the tent where the poles carry the outer tent, not the inner tent as with many other tents. This means that the outer tent can be set up without an inner tent and consequently also set up before the inner tent if these are separated. We believe it is important to mount the inner tent in the shelter of rain and wind.
We know when leaving for an adventure, you have a lot of gear packed down. Equipment that one needs to keep track of. This is why we have equipped the inner tent (which is purchased separately) with several pockets that should be able to hold and keep track of most of your small gear. In addition, you will find it possible to hang up cords and lanterns in both the inner tent and the tent itself.
The flysheet is of course 100% waterproof. But like every other quality tent with this type of fabric, the seams have to be lubricated with a special mix of silicon to become fully waterproof. But a sealed tent isn’t a perfect tent. It has to have good ventilation as well. The circulation of air inside the tent is essential. Without circulation, you will experience condensation on the inside of the outer tent. Ventilation is a key factor to avoid condensation. This is why the Mjodhall 16 is equipped with a total of 6 air-valves. 2 large in the top of the tent where moist air is able to escape out of the tent, and 4 smaller air vents further down the tent for suction of air into the tent while providing plenty of oxygen if using a stove. All exposed areas on the outer fabric are reinforced with Dyneema fabric. Dyneema is considered the worlds strongest fabric. It is therefore perfectly appropriate that we have added this fabric to our tents.
For cold days, you may seal the doors in the inner tent completely (If you have an inner tent) For hot days you can open them, but still and at the same time have sealed mosquito nets that protect against insects. In addition, you will find mosquito nets in both entrances of the outer tent.
Mjodhall 16 is designed, thought and designed around a stove. Being able to have a warm, pleasant, and cosy tent is something we believe lifts the adventure to completely new levels. While the storm rages outside with ice-cold winds and rain, one can enjoy an indescribable comfort inside the tent with 20-30 degrees Celcius

Mjodhall 16 is a spacious tent with a height of 239 cm, width of 432 cm and length 700 cm where the weight is 22 kg. Not an light tent. But light compared to size and construction. This because of the flysheet which consists of ripstop nylon coated with silicone on both sides. This combination provides an exceptionally light yet robust and strong fabric. We could of course make the tent even lighter with thinner aluminium poles and a thinner flysheet. But would compromise what we want to achieve in relation to stability and strength.
Inner tent
With the innertent in Mjodhall 16 you have the possibility of a more controllable indoor climate. In addition to a dry area, you also get a slightly more warm indoor climate and of course also keep those mosquitos away. The stove in the tent can be used together with the both inner tents where it is possible to obtain an incredibly warm and dry indoor climate regardless of the seasons. The inner tent can be opened up so you can utilize the entire tent and have an easy access to the stove.
With the possiblibilities of two seperate innertents you get a very flexible living area
In order to ensure flexible access and the possibility of optimal ventilation and an adjustable climate in the inner tent, there is an opening/ entrance both in front and in the back of the inner tent. In both entances there are both mosquito net and a"dense" nylon fabrics that can be used as needed, These are regulated with handy YKK zippers. On cold days, you can "bunk" the inner tent completely closed with the dense fabric in the openings. On warmer days you can open up, but at the same time keep mosquitoes and other insects away with mosquito nets in all openings
We have also equipped the innertent with adjustable "hatches" in the ceiling that can be opened/ closed to more easily prevent condensation as needed. These are like all other openings equipped with mosquito nets

Floor
We have designed the NORTENT Mjohall 16 to be a very flexible tent. We know different people have different needs, wishes and necessities when it comes to shelter when hiking in mountains and woods. Some prefer to use the tent without any inner or floor. Others may prefer just the inner, and some would prefer the tent with all possible available solutions. Because of this we have made a tent where you choose your soultions as needed where you are able to choose if you want a floor for your tent. The floor makes the tent a fully enclosed shelter for protection against insects and moisture from the ground below where you are able to unzip parts of the floor for those wet and dirty shoes and clothes, or when using a stove. However. In very humid and wet climate we always recommend using the inner-tent if not using a stove. NORTENT Mjodhall has mosquito netting in all the openings where you are completely shielded even if all door-openings in the tent is open. This gives a very spacious impression . Our floor can also be used with our stoves.
