Usually the pegs that come with tents aren't much good, thin metal hook shaped, I would invest in some better pegs, rock pegs, deltas etc

Was just wondering the same thing myself, wil see how they do on my trial pitch (my garden which is full of stones)

Was surprised at how heavy it is, a bit daunting really!

No problem, just thought being more pricey then the cheaper tents they might have beefed up the pegs. I'll get some treaded bivvy T pegs that will hold it down

We have managed so far with the pegs that came with the Kampa Croyde, however I am a fair weather camper so we havent encountered any bad weather yet!  We have now invested in some rock pegs and will be getting some more - just in case!  We have however bent a lot of our original pegs.  So I would get some more to be on the safe side

If you have a look at the Montana on the Outwell website they have a video pointing out the main points of the tent. About a minute or so the bloke (clearly bored as he's done a similar video for evey Outwell, Robens and Easycamp tent there is!!) talks about the Outwell Easy Pegging System (everything they do has to be called a system even if it simply means three different types of peg). This system involves four steel V pegs for the corners, chunky black plastic pegs for non-guy pegs and chunky yellow plastic pegs for the guys. This is a good start for your peg collection but many of the yellow pegs should be Deltas and you will need some rock pegs for the collection as well.
