Ways to use the Hilleberg Bivanorak

  • Bivy Bag/Sleeping Bag Cover,
  • Rain Garment,
  • Portable Windbreak/Emergency Shelter - all in one

Use as a Bivy Bag / Sleeping Bag Cover

The Bivanorak is cut long and wide to provide room for both a sleeping bag and pad in bivy bag mode. Its lower hem and cuffs have drawcords (those in the cuffs are elastic) which can be secured shut to keep warmth in and rain and snow out, and its long front zipper makes entry and exit easy.

The large hood will easily accommodate the hood of a sleeping bag, yet it can be cinched tightly around your face.

Option:
Combine a Hilleberg Bivanorak and Tarp to create a highly effective and incredibly lightweight shelter system.

Use as a Windbreak / Shelter

Pull it out of your pack and climb in.

The wind- and waterproof material, adjustable cuffs and hem, and generous hood make for a roomy, comfortable temporary refuge!

It’s a versatile alternative to our Windsack as safety equipment for one person.

Use as a Rain Garment

The Bivanorak is worn anorak style and can be adjusted to a variety of lengths. Its single size and easy adjustability allow both the tallest and smallest person to use the Bivanorak

Simply pull the bottom hem up inside the body of the Bivanorak and tighten the drawcord around your waist or tuck the extra fabric under your pack’s hip belt. There is even enough room to carry a backpack underneath!

Pair it with rain pants or chaps and you have superb wet weather protection.
