We had our first camping trip this weekend at lakeland haven site where we had a brilliant time. Friday night was a little scary as the winds were quite strong, when putting up the tent we did try using the metal pegs you get with your tent but these just kept bending as the ground was very hard, we also tried the red plastic pegs which we did get in the ground but are useless now because as we pulled them out they had also bent, can anyone recommend any pegs which will not bend or break.

cheers

Hi Clare, welcome to UKCS.

Delta pegs are excellent in most ground, but if it is extremely hard or rocky then you need rock pegs and a hammer. I understand that Delta hope to have rock pegs available in the near future.

Thanks for your replies I will check out the rock and delta pegs.

I think these are rock pegs and I jusr bought 40 at what I thought was a reasonable cost

Derek - the link just goes to a trader, not to a specific item, when I try it.

Rock pegs are basically like great big nails witha  plastic hook on the top for guyropes or flysheet loops.
