The Vango Scafell 300 is a lightweight 3-person tunnel tent, ideal for backpacking, wild camping, and festival trips across the UK. Built with Gothic Arch poles and the TBSII Tension Band System, it's a stable, wind-resistant tent that pitches in under 5 minutes — perfect for beginners and experienced campers alike. Waterproof to 3000mm HH with fully taped seams, it keeps you dry in British weather, while the breathable inner and mesh door prevent condensation and keep bugs out. Weighing just 2.6kg and packing down small, it's a popular choice for DofE expeditions, hiking trips, and anyone searching for a reliable, easy-pitch 3-man tent.

The Vango Scafell 300 is a three-berth tent for camping trips where you want a dedicated sleeping space without choosing a larger family tent. Compare its dimensions, packed size, weight and included items before ordering to make sure it suits your trip and the space you need for your kit.

If you are choosing between the Scafell 200 and Scafell 300, check each model’s specifications rather than relying on berth count alone.

Tunnel Tent Design - Delivers an exceptional strength-to-weight ratio and engineered for a fast, straightforward pitch. Pack size is significantly reduced while maximizing usable internal volume and living space.
All-In-One Pitching - Designed for maximum efficiency with an inner tent that stays securely clipped to the flysheet, streamlining both deployment and pack-down. For lightweight or fast-and-light missions, the flysheet can be pitched independently to serve as a streamlined, standalone shelter.
PowerLite Alloy Poles - Utilizing premium 7001-T6 series aluminium, these engineered poles achieve an optimal structural balance between high tensile strength and minimal weight. The result is a highly durable, resilient design that withstands demanding conditions without adding unnecessary bulk to your pack.
Gothic Arch Structure - Our unique Gothic Arch pole structure features a pointed pole apex that prevents heavy rain or snow from pooling on your tent, directing run-off away from the fabric while boosting stability in harsh winds.
Identical Poles - Features completely identical poles, eliminating the need to match hardware to specific sleeves. Pitching is faster, simpler, and less stressful even in bad weather.
Protex 70D Flysheet - Engineered from a highly resilient yet lightweight 70-denier polyester, this flysheet features a high-performance PU backing to deliver a 3,000mm Hydrostatic Head (HH) waterproof rating. The advanced fabric matrix provides uncompromising weather protection and lasting durability without compromising on pack weight.
Breathable Polyester Inner - Allows condensation to pass through, for a comfortable nights sleep
70D Polyester Groundsheet - Made from a rugged, 70-denier PU-backed polyester, this high-performance groundsheet features a formidable 6,000mm Hydrostatic Head (HH) waterproof rating. Engineered to withstand high-friction wear, the low-maintenance surface repels dirt and moisture, ensuring long-lasting protection and effortless cleaning.
Bathtub Groundsheet - Featuring a groundsheet that extends 10cm up the inner tent wall, creating a barrier against rain, pooling water and saturated ground. Engineered specifically for harsh-weather resilience, it ensures your tent stays warm and dry, even in severe conditions.
TBSII - Proprietary to Vango, this advanced internal bracing system utilizes adjustable tension bands to form a rigid structural triangle, significantly reducing sideways deformation and stabilizing the tent against violent, shifting crosswinds. When conditions are calm, the system can be effortlessly stowed away to maintain an unobstructed living space.
High Visibility Guylines - Woven with premium reflective elements, these high-tensile guylines maximize low-light visibility. Engineered to reflect in low light conditions, they mitigate tripping hazards and ease night time navigation in dense darkness or adverse weather.
High Grip Guyline Adjusters - Engineered to lock securely, these high-friction adjusters maintain tension even during extreme weather. The ergonomic design enables intuitive, single-handed adjustment, allowing you to effortlessly tune and optimize tent stability in any condition.
Lightweight Aluminium Pegs - Extruded from high tensile aluminium, these lightweight anchors offer an excellent strength-to-weight ratio. Engineered to hold in varied terrain, giving you extra security when the weather turns.
Fully Taped Seams - Every structural seam across both the flysheet and groundsheet is fully taped to create an impenetrable, watertight barrier, preventing moisture ingress and ensuring absolute protection during prolonged downpours.
O-Shaped Inner Doors - Engineered with a sweeping, fluid curve, our O-shaped doors ensure effortless, snag-free zip operation, even when using one hand.
Partial Mesh Inner Door - Built with a strategic mesh panel to maximize fresh airflow throughout the tent while keeping insects firmly outside.
Rain Stop flysheet Doors - Structured to prevent rain from dripping into the inner tent when the door is opened, keeping your living space bone-dry.
Rear Flysheet Vent - A mesh covered rear flysheet vent that promotes airflow, drastically reducing condensation without compromising weather defence or bug protection.
Single Porch - A single porch enclosure provides covered, weather-protected space to store your kit and keep it out of the main sleeping area.
Fast Pack Tent Bag - Features an oversized, wide, top opening for fast, hassle-free packing. An integrated drawcord and compression straps quickly cinch down the volume to minimize pack size.
Internal Storage Pockets - Conveniently positioned within the inner tent to keep your essentials organized, secure, and always within arms reach.
Fully Rain Tested - Rigorously tested and certified to EN ISO 5912 standard, this tent is engineered to reliably withstand heavy rain and high winds, offering complete peace of mind on the trail. Built for dependable seasonal use, it provides a secure shelter in adverse conditions. Not intended for extreme storms or severe survival weather.
Fire Retardant Fabrics - Exceeds European EN5912 safety standard
