Its tunnel construction delivers a generous internal layout for its pack size, with a defined sleeping area and a large front porch for storing kit and footwear.

Positioned above basic dome tents, the Skye 300 offers improved weather protection, better storage and a more organised layout without the weight or complexity of larger family tents. The all-in-one pitch allows the tent to be erected quickly, even in wet conditions.

  • Suitable for weekend camping and festivals

  • Good space-to-pack-size ratio

  • Defined sleeping and storage areas

  • Straightforward pitching for regular use


Materials, Build & Design

The Vango Skye 300 uses Vango’s Protex 70 Denier polyester flysheet with a 3,000mmHH waterproof rating and factory-taped seams for dependable protection in wet conditions. PowerFlex® fibreglass poles form a stable structure, supported by the TBSII Tension Band System to improve performance in changeable winds.

A linked-in polyethylene groundsheet helps keep out draughts and insects, while still allowing flexibility by rolling it away under the bedroom when not required. Fire-retardant fabrics meet European EN5912 safety standards.
