1972The Ravneskar Tent

Hiker packing a green bag near a dark green tent. Snowy mountains in the background under a blue sky. The hiker is wearing a Norrøna jacket.

Introduced in 1972, the Norrøna Ravneskar tent was a revolution within the tunnel tent design.

It became a trusted companion for generations of Norwegian mountaineers, trekkers, and ski tourers. Built to withstand the harsh weather of Scandinavia’s high mountains, it earned a reputation for durability, reliability, and smart design. More than just a tent, the Ravneskar became part of Norway’s outdoor heritage – sheltering countless adventures from the windswept plateaus of Hardangervidda to the peaks of Jotunheimen.
