Many of the cool points about bivy tents are, that they are generally speaking light, making them easy to carry around. In most all cases, tents used for backpacking are of the bivy type. They are usually, freestanding and very simple to set up. In calm weather, you can do without securing the tent with stakes and ropes, not that this is recommended.

Bivy tents are without a doubt the most common of all the different sorts of tents you will see when camping. They tend to fair better in the rain than other types, allowing water to roll off the slanted sides, unlike cabin tents that have flat roofs, resulting in the water pooling on the top of the tent. The most basic bivy tent should have a square floor, slanted walls a couple of poles which cross in the center of the roof. Due to the way they are made, it is usually considered that they are ideal for up to a maximum of 6 people.
