Roof tent Desert for 2 people - 165 cm

The Desert roof tent can generally be mounted on almost any car. All you need is a roof rack, which could be our ExRoof platform, a roof rack, or two crossbars similar to those used for a roof box from other manufacturers.

Want to experience freedom while still feeling at home? A converted van sounds great, but it's too big for narrow mountain trails and small towns. With a rooftop tent like the Desert, you have all the options, whether on a Defender, pickup truck, smaller car, or trailer.

Highlights

1. Very spacious thanks to folding mechanism
2. Compatible with all vehicle models & roof racks (note roof load)
3. Including 8 cm cold foam mattress
4. Roof tent weight between 55 - 78 kg (depending on the variant)
5. Large windows including mosquito net
6. Robust roof protects against rain
   

The Desert roof tent comes with a lot of features: an 8 cm high cold foam mattress, a folding ladder, and all the hardware needed to attach it to your roof rack (works for all common models).

Robust material

The Desert roof tent is made of 280g canvas. The combination of 65% polyester and 35% cotton ensures breathability and a comfortable climate inside the tent. Thanks to the robust 210D polyester flysheet with a 5000mm hydrostatic head and super-insulated seams, you're effectively protected from the rain. Another advantage in bad weather is the dry entry from below.

Optional awning

For our Desert roof tent, we also offer matching awnings to expand your living area.

The awning is attached to the roof tent with sturdy YKK zippers. The inner floor of the spacious awning is waterproof and can be removed when not in use. The walls protect you from icy drizzle and wind on cold days (the breathable fabric of the awning is not completely waterproof, unlike the roof tent) and from the blazing sun in summer. What's perfect is that you can open the windows when needed, but they are then additionally protected by mosquito nets.

Suitable for all vehicle models

Our roof tents are suitable for all vehicle models. All you need is a roof rack (we're happy if you buy one from horntools, but if you already have another roof rack, you're welcome to use that one). The roof tent is then attached to the roof rack. Everything you need is included with the roof tent. Whether it's a T5, T6, Jimny, Ford Ranger, pickup, VW Bus, station wagon, or Golf – the Desert fits on every car. Please note the roof load capacity of your vehicle. You can find this in the owner's manual or online. The roof load must be sufficient to support the roof tent. You can find a detailed explanation of the installation process in our installation video:

Easy assembly in just 5 minutes

The Desert pop-up tent can be set up on the roof of your car in about five minutes. A few simple steps: lowering the tent using a ladder and securing the guy poles to the windows – and your Desert is set up. A detailed setup video for all pop-up tent models can be found here:
