The tarp is good, relatively lightweight, waterproof, and has been tested during regular camping in the forest. It seems to be very durable, the seams look solid, although I haven't yet had the chance to test it in stronger winds.
-
The Helikon tarp is of very good quality – the material is solid, well-made, and looks durable. Everything is as described, and the product works very well in the field. I highly recommend it.
-
The tarp made a huge impression on me. The PenCott WildWood camouflage blends perfectly in British forests, especially where there are lots of pine trees. The material feels very sturdy and there are really plenty of attachment points. I can't wait to test the tarp during summer camping.
-
Very nice tarp, standard size 3x3 meters, and as many as 19 attachment points is also a plus. Waterproof, solid material. It may not be ultra-light, but it's not heavy either, and thanks to that, it's more durable. Packed in 2 covers. One is an ordinary one closed with a drawstring, which fits into the larger one. Its back is made of mesh, zipped, and has 4 loops for attaching to the edges. It can hold guy lines, stakes, and similar accessories. Overall, a nice piece of gear in the tarp section, I can recommend it.
-
What can I say? The Helikon Tex Supertarp is one of the top tarps available on the market. It has many attachment points, is very solid, yet lightweight, and costs a reasonable amount of money. The only drawback is the camouflage – PenCott Wildwood looks fantastic, but the other patterns have a static print, which makes them look artificial and easy to spot. Therefore, I recommend choosing PenCott as camouflage or the single-color version.
-
Fairly lightweight, well-made tarp with a ripstop weave and plenty of mounting points. Personally, I give big praise to the manufacturer for the two transport bags, including one ventilated one. It really makes things much easier. Some people complain about the lack of stakes in the set, but I think this "problem" can easily be solved in the field.
-
Thanks to the Rip-Stop material, the tarp seems very durable, it's exceptionally lightweight, and the numerous attachment points allow you to perfectly adjust it to any conditions with some practice. At this price, it's hard to find a better choice – no wonder it has become so popular.
-
The Helikon-Tex Supertarp in US Woodland camouflage gives the impression of being a durable product, it's easy to fold to a small size and offers very good protection. The fabric looks strong and the overall construction is well-made.
-
The tarp works very well in the field. It provides solid protection from rain and wind, and thanks to multiple attachment points, you can set it up exactly the way you want. The size is just right — it provides good coverage, while not taking up much space in your backpack. You need to buy stakes and cords separately since unfortunately they are not included in the set. For me, the product is worth its price.
-
The Helikon Supertarp bivouac tarp is a great tarp for use in various weather conditions and diverse terrain. It has a large number of mounting points, good material, and the PenCott WildWood pattern provides excellent camouflage in forests. I recommend it.
-
This is my first tarp and I am really satisfied with it. The price is very attractive and the fabric seems durable. The whole thing is carefully sewn and well made. The 3x3 meter size allows for various tarp setups and comfortably fits two people.
-
When you set up this tarp in the field, you can immediately see that it’s a simple, well-thought-out product: it’s easy to fasten, has lots of attachment points, and really offers many options for making a shelter over a hammock or as a canopy over a camping spot. The WildWood camouflage blends nicely into the forest, so if you want a less conspicuous material, this works. It packs into a small bundle, so it doesn’t take up much space in your backpack, and setting it up doesn’t require any special equipment (cords/poles must be brought separately).
-
As always, Helikon-Tex delivers products with thoughtful design and high-quality workmanship. I use this tarp during cycling trips to protect my bike, as support for the tent during heavy rain, or simply to create an additional shaded area next to the tent.

The Helikon Supertarp bivouac sheet provides reliable protection in the field. Light, durable, and easy to set up. The PenCott WildWood pattern camouflages perfectly in Polish forests.
