Cloudbreak mars mission

Make every place your Heimplanet - Outdoor photographer & videographer Dani Guindo shows us how.

Interplanetary travel

It feels as if the landing has been successful. The rover is stationary, the red dust lies heavy on the tires. The wind swirls sand across the endless plain, where craggy rocks jut out of the barren landscape. We set up our base camp in the middle of this Mars-like backdrop that we have found in Iceland. Our base camp for the next few days is called Cloudbreak.

With its clean, modern lines and a structure designed for extreme environments, the Cloudbreak fits perfectly into the Icelandic wilderness. The tent was erected quickly. Once anchored, nothing can move it.

Our base camp

Iceland, with its surreal volcanic landscape, really does feel like an alien world. The black sand deserts, deep canyons and majestic volcanoes are reminiscent of the surface of Mars. With the first step outside, we felt like explorers of a new world - ready to explore every nook and cranny, no matter how rough.

In Iceland, the elements seemed to be in an endless battle. The wind whipped across the land, the temperature dropped quickly, but the Cloudbreak offered us the kind of protection you could only wish for in the cold solitude of an alien planet. The thick, durable outer shell and separate sleeping cabin provided a warm and dry refuge in which we could move freely - no matter what the conditions were like outside.

Security or flexibility?

The Cloudbreak is ideal for groups and families. For overland campers and outdoor enthusiasts looking for a safe, reliable shelter that offers comfort and freedom of movement. Unlike many current options where you have to choose between safety and flexibility, the Cloudbreak offers both. Many other tents of this size you'd rather not move for a whole week once you've managed to set them up.

Cloudbreak is different. The quick assembly and dismantling guarantees maximum freedom of movement. Once you have decided on a location, the geodesic structure and the double-layer frame construction provide the necessary protection from the elements. This also makes road trips possible where you can fall asleep under a different starry sky every night.

Off to new horizons

Our shoot in Iceland - or our Mars mission, as we jokingly called it - was more than just an adventure. It was an exploration of the possible. The Cloudbreak from Heimplanet was our partner on this journey, our faithful companion, guiding us through unknown terrain while keeping us safe and comfortable. For those who feel the call of adventure, who want to push further and further into the wilderness - be it on another planet or here on earth - the Cloudbreak is the ultimate tent. It not only stands for protection and resilience, but also for the urge to discover new things and overcome your own limits.

Confidence in your own equipment is crucial. It gives you the necessary self-confidence to embark on any journey and embrace the unknown. Whether you're heading to the endless expanses of Iceland or embarking on an adventure right on your doorstep, the Cloudbreak will accompany you wherever your next adventure takes you.
