Hilleberg is a Swedish tent manufacturer that was founded in 1973 by the married couple Bo and Renate Hilleberg. Hilleberg tents are known for their low weight, robustness and high prices. The tents are part of the equipment of alpinists , trekkers and individual travelers. Hilleberg also produces bivouac sacks and tarps.

A defining feature of Hilleberg products is the exterior tent poles in the outer tent. The inner tent is hung on the inside of the outer tent. This speeds up the erection and dismantling of the tent because the inner tent does not have to be separated from the outer tent. The inner tent also stays dry if you have to pitch the tent in the rain.

The first product, the two-person ridge tent "Keb", had this feature. Hilleberg's best-known tents are “Keron” (first modern tunnel tent ), the ultra- light tent “Nallo”, the expedition tent “Nammatj” and finally the “Akto” for solo trekking.
