Why Choose the Vango Nevis 100?
The Vango Nevis 100 is a compact and dependable 1 person backpacking tent designed for solo campers who value low pack weight, fast pitching, and reliable weather protection. Built with UK trekking in mind, it offers a practical balance between portability and comfort, making it a trusted choice for backpacking, trekking, and DofE expeditions.
With a 5 minute pitching time, this tent is ideal when daylight fades or weather conditions change quickly. The All In One Pitching system allows the inner and flysheet to pitch together, or flysheet first, helping you stay drier during setup. A low profile, side entry tunnel design supports efficient packing and a strong space to weight balance for carrying in a rucksack.
The Protex 70D flysheet, with a 3000mm hydrostatic head, delivers dependable waterproof performance, while fully taped seams and a bathtub style groundsheet extending 10cm up the inner help reduce water ingress in prolonged rainfall. Stability is improved using the TBS® II Tension Band System, which helps reduce lateral movement in strong winds that can be common on exposed UK routes.
Inside, the breathable inner and integrated mesh panels help airflow and support condensation management. A door vent and end ventilation further support comfort overnight. A single porch provides sheltered storage for boots and equipment, keeping the sleeping area clear and organised.
Supplied with lightweight alloy pegs and a Fast Pack tent bag, the Nevis 100 packs down small and stores easily inside a pack. Its DofE approval supports suitability for expedition use, where weight, durability, and easy pitching matter.
