Duke of Edinburgh Recommended Tents
Vango’s Duke of Edinburgh Award recommended tents are designed and tested to perform to the highest standards, ensuring they stand up to the demands of any expedition. Built for group use, these tents are available in multiple sizes, including 2-person and 3-person options.
Each model includes Vango’s TBS®II Tension Band System, providing added stability in challenging weather and high winds. They also come with quick-access tent bags and compression straps, making packing and carrying straightforward and efficient.
DofE Sleeping Bags & Mats
Vango’s DofE recommended sleeping bags and mats have been developed alongside DofE leaders to meet the standards required for expedition use.
Just like the Vango tent range, these sleeping bags and mats focus on both performance and comfort, helping to ensure a warm and restful night’s sleep outdoors. Each DofE approved design is compact for easy transport while maintaining durability and dependable quality throughout your journey.
DofE Rucksacks
Vango trekking rucksacks are built for expedition use, offering the durability and comfort needed for DofE adventures of any length. Each pack includes an adjustable back system, allowing you to achieve a secure and comfortable fit for long days on the trail.
The DofE recommended rucksacks are designed to be reliable and hard-wearing, with plenty of space for all your expedition essentials, making them a dependable choice for both new and experienced participants.
Walking Poles
Vango’s walking poles are the newest addition to the Duke of Edinburgh’s Award recommended kit list. Whether you’re taking part in your first expedition or working towards your Gold Award, these poles are designed to give you the support and stability you need on every step of your route.
The Camino walking poles are particularly well-suited for Silver and Gold DofE participants. Built from tough 7075 aluminium, they’re strong enough to handle demanding terrain and extended use. Featuring Vango’s QuickLock system, the poles can be compacted down to just 67cm for easy carrying, while the anti-shock foam handles help reduce strain on your legs, knees, ankles, and feet during long treks.
