The Vango Scafell 200 is a highly efficient 2 person backpacking tent, designed for campers who want fast pitching, excellent internal space, and dependable performance in UK conditions. With its impressive space to weight ratio and practical layout, it is well suited to trekking routes, short camping trips, and organised expeditions.
Featuring two identical poles, the Scafell 200 is quick and intuitive to pitch, removing the need to match poles to sleeves. The All In One Pitching design allows the inner and flysheet to pitch together, or flysheet first, helping to keep the inner dry during setup. A 5 minute pitching time makes it ideal when conditions are changeable or daylight is limited.
Weather protection comes from the Protex 70D flysheet with a 3000mm hydrostatic head, supported by fully taped seams for reliable waterproof performance. The Gothic Arch pole structure peaks at the apex to improve stability and encourage effective water run off, while the TBS® II Tension Band System helps reduce sideways movement in strong or gusty winds.
Inside, the breathable polyester inner allows moisture to pass through, helping manage condensation for a more comfortable night’s sleep. A durable 70D PU backed groundsheet with a bathtub design extending 10cm up the inner improves protection in wet conditions. The front facing porch provides convenient covered storage for boots and essential kit, while internal storage pockets keep smaller items close to hand.
Supplied with lightweight alloy pegs and a Fast Pack tent bag, the Scafell 200 packs down efficiently for rucksack carry and is D of E recommended, meeting expedition requirements for weight, durability, and ease of pitching.
