A
Tunnel Tent is spacious
and comfortable
A tunnel tent is known for its good use of
internal space making great for Mom, Dad and the kids while family camping.
Although you may find larger tunnel tents a bit heavy, simply remove the tent
poles in a separate bag and that will alleviate some of that weight.
Other tunnel camping tents can be quite the
opposite weighing as little as one and a half pounds. The type of material used
is generally nylon and is not a spacious tent, however it is very compact and
lightweight. Being a freestanding tent it does not need any stakes unless a fly
is added. Because of its design the wind flows off of it easily and makes it
great for winter camping. It is easily assembled and dismantled.
To set up a larger tunnel camping tent why not
call over the kids and make it a game to play. Lie the tent tunnel flat on the
ground and slide the tent poles along the sides through the sleeves and have the
kids insert the end of the pole into the rings. Once you’ve done this part, the
tent will begin to form shape and prop up quite quickly. Some tents with a
tunnel design have one or more compartment rooms depending on the size. Other
features you will find in a tunnel styled tent are inside hanging pockets with
zippers, adjustable windows and air vents for better ventilation.
Because tunnel camping tents can be quite large,
you can camp a lot more like home with folding bed cots, air mattresses and even
fit a camping chair and table inside for an eating area. A family favorite it
the Gelert Lokon Vario 4 MRP £55 is ideal for larger groups with maximum
space, ultimate stability and specifically designed to be easy and quick to
pitch. Features on this tent include flysheet first pitching, detachable living
area groundsheet, internal steel support poles, adjustable door position and
frond and side door entrance. Colors you will find in a tunnel style tent
include camouflage, grey, green and tan to name a few.
