MSR (Mountain Safety Research) is one of the most trusted names in backpacking and mountain camping equipment. Known for building gear that performs in demanding conditions, MSR tents, stoves and camping accessories are widely used by backpackers, mountaineers and long-distance hikers who need dependable kit when they’re far from the car.
At Crib Goch Outdoor we primarily stock MSR backpacking tents, including the popular Hubba Hubba and Elixir series, because they strike an excellent balance between durability, weather protection and pack weight. These tents are designed for real-world outdoor use — whether you’re heading out for a lightweight overnight in the hills, a multi-day backpacking trip or a longer expedition where reliable shelter matters.
Alongside tents, MSR produces a wide range of technical camping equipment including backpacking stoves, fuel bottles, cookware, tent pegs and repair components. These small but important pieces of kit are designed with the same attention to durability and functionality that has made MSR a favourite among experienced outdoor users.
Based in North Wales near Eryri (Snowdonia), we regularly help customers choose lightweight camping equipment for mountain use, backpacking routes and overnight trips in changeable UK conditions. MSR equipment is often recommended because it’s practical, well designed and proven in the kind of environments outdoor gear is actually used in.
