These innovative tents combine the comfort of a traditional tent with the added benefit of being easily mounted on the roof of a vehicle. People opt for soft shell rooftop tents for a variety of reasons.
Convenient & Efficient
Firstly, they offer a convenient and efficient solution for outdoor enthusiasts and travellers, allowing them to set up camp wherever their vehicle can go. Whether it's a camping trip, an off-road adventure, or a weekend getaway, these tents provide a cosy and elevated sleeping space that keeps occupants safe from ground-level pests, uneven terrain, and damp conditions. Additionally, soft shell rooftop tents are quick and easy to set up, saving valuable time and effort.
Durable Construction
With their durable construction and weather-resistant materials, they offer excellent protection against the elements, ensuring a comfortable night's sleep even in inclement weather. Moreover, these tents are designed with ergonomic features and ample interior space, providing a comfortable sleeping area with proper ventilation. Their compact and aerodynamic design reduces wind resistance while driving, making them an ideal choice for road trips and outdoor explorations.
Range Of Sizes
The DARCHE soft shell range features a variety of sizes for different campers. For example, the Basecamp 2200 offers a large sleeping area that can comfortably sleep a small family.
On the other hand, the Kozi 1300 weighs only 45.3kg, making it a lightweight alternative that will suit a range of vehicles.
If your looking for something inbetween these two, the Intrepidor 3 1400 would be perfect. It offers great space at a reasonable weight of 51kg.
This means it’s ideal for those who need added comfort on and extended roadtrip, while still being light enough to fit onto large SUVs and soft roaders.
Overall, soft shell rooftop tents offer a convenient, comfortable, and efficient camping solution, allowing adventurers to embrace the beauty of nature without compromising on comfort or convenience.
