About the Vaude Arco 2 + Footprint
Part of Vaude's Active series, the Arco 2-Person Backpacking Tent is a great option for those looking for a high-quality, lightweight tent for 3-season backpacking and camping on a budget.
The Arco 2 pitches fly and canopy together with a low-profile, sturdy tunnel design providing excellent wind stability and utilising internal space for on-trail comfort and storage. Dead end pole sleeves and colour-coded Yunan poles allow for quick setup making this a great option for time-sensitive situations.
Inside, there's room enough for two people with single-door access and a spacious front vestibule for added storage space and food prep. Rain-protected vents can be accessed from inside via a 4-way zip which can be opened from both sides, in both directions – from above or below. A further vent in the rear of the tent allows for airflow to manage condensation.
A durable 75D PU coated flysheet provides 3000mm hydrostatic head with 70D and 5000mm waterproofing in the floor. High-quality Yunan aluminium poles provide stability while a PVC-free construction gives this tent an added eco-friendly design.
Vaude's adaptable lighting atmosphere features a darkened outer tent material for greater sleeping comfort with a lighter outer material for the living area.
Includes tough footprint to help keep ground-water at bay. Footprints also guard your built-in groundsheet against dirt and damage from rocks, debris, and other sharp objects. Each Vaude ground cloth is tailored to fit the corresponding model of tent to save you from carrying any excess weight.
A versatile and robust camping tent, the Arco 2 gives you Vaude's renowned construction that won't let you down when the weather does. A fantastic lightweight 2-person tent for wild camping and backpacking.
