The tipi or 'teepee', the original camping tent used by the Native Americans for thousands of years. Nothing gets you more excited about camping than the thought of staying in one of these. This tipi is made with the highest quality materials and looks stunning in its original sandy, beige colour. The tipi is easy to assemble and should take one person ten minutes. The ground sheet simply attaches to the main part of the tent with a zipper. The thick 540 gsm material the groundsheet is made from will ensure a comfortable floor to lie or sit on no matter how uneven the ground is underneath. The main tent is covered in a highly waterproof PU coating ensuring your tipi keeps you completely dry no matter what the weather.

Waterproofing explained:
- PU means a waterproof coating has been applied to the inside of the tent fabric.
- A Hydrostatic Head of 1500mm / 1500mm waterproof means that a tent fabric could hold a column of water of up to 1500mm tall until water seeps through the weave. (The minimum rating to be considered waterproof is 1000mm).
- Taped seems stop water getting through.
