Instant Tent: Even if your outdoor adventure is only for a few hours, a small shaded area for rest can greatly enhance your experience, especially if it’s lightweight and easy to carry. The "Instant Tent" by Desert Snow is designed for 4 people and features a quick-opening mechanism, a spacious front entrance for easy access, one door, and three large windows for maximum ventilation. All openings have built-in mosquito nets, and a “dome” cover prevents light and moisture from entering. The tent comes with fiberglass poles, 4 pegs for tensioning, and a carrying bag. Weight: 4.2 kg, Floor area: 240x240 cm, Height: 140 cm, Fabric type: 190T nylon, Coating: 800D PU, sun and water repellent. Price: NIS 600.

Hammock: A hammock can provide you with moments of relaxation (and rest, of course). Although it doesn't offer shade like a tent and isn't suitable for more than two people, the sensation of floating in the air will work its magic. The feeling of freedom and relaxation for body and mind will come quickly, and the breeze (if it blows) will gently caress your body. For shade, find a spot under a broad-branched tree. Rikushet offers a luxurious Brazilian-style hammock, hand-made, 65% cotton, and 35% polyester, tightly woven for strength and flexibility. It has strong loops at the ends for easy hanging. Dimensions: 160x220 cm, Maximum load: 120 kg. Price: NIS 159.

Cooler Bag: If part of your adventure includes food from home, then a cooler bag is a must-have. A soft cooler with a hard bottom works wonderfully. It offers the stability of a hard cooler but with flexibility and the ability to expand as needed. It folds for easy transport when empty and doesn’t take up much storage space when not in use. Made of high-quality polyester and insulation material, it has a main compartment for keeping things hot or cold and a front mesh pocket. It maintains temperature for up to 8 hours and comes in various colors and three sizes: 12 liters, 26 liters, 40 liters. Prices based on size: NIS 120/130/170.

Quick-Drying Towel: A quick-drying towel can be more essential than you think. The microfibre field towel offered by Rikushet is suitable for travelers in all conditions. It can be used to clean surfaces, body, or face, to dry sweat, or to cool off hot areas. It doesn’t take up much space in your bag, can be washed well, and dries quickly for repeated use throughout your outdoor adventure. It has high absorbency, impressive ventilation, and comes packed in a suitable carrying bag. Price: NIS 99.
