Vango Helvellyn 200 Wild Camping Tent

Why Choose the Vango Helvellyn 200?

The Vango Helvellyn 200 is a strong and dependable 2 person backpacking tent, designed for campers who need enhanced stability and reliable performance across challenging terrain. Featuring a semi geodesic construction, it offers a self supporting structure with an excellent balance between strength and weight, making it well suited to year round adventures and organised expeditions in UK conditions.

The All In One Pitching system allows the inner and flysheet to pitch together, or flysheet first, helping keep the inner dry during setup. With a 10 minute pitching time, the Helvellyn 200 remains straightforward to erect while providing added structural integrity for more exposed locations. Colour coded poles further simplify pitching, making it easier for less experienced campers to achieve a secure setup.

Weather protection is delivered by the Protex 70D flysheet with a 3000mm hydrostatic head, supported by fully taped seams for dependable waterproof performance. A durable 70D PU backed groundsheet, combined with a bathtub design extending 10cm up the inner, helps prevent water ingress during prolonged rainfall. The Gothic Arch pole structure enhances stability and encourages effective water run off from the flysheet.

Inside, the breathable polyester inner tent and integrated mesh panels improve airflow and help manage condensation. Inner door vents and mesh covered side vents maintain airflow while keeping insects out. A multi functional flysheet door can be opened from either side or rolled away completely, creating a flexible porch area for shelter or storage. Internal storage pockets keep essentials close to hand.

Supplied with lightweight alloy pegs and a Fast Pack tent bag, the Helvellyn 200 packs down efficiently for rucksack carry and is D of E Recommended, meeting expedition requirements for weight, durability, and ease of use.
