The Beta 550XL 5-man tent is a 3-pole tunnel tent that offers generous sleeping space combined with a large, functional porch area for storing your camping essentials. The Beta features our robust Sentinel Eco Flysheet (3,000mm HH), made from single-use plastic, including Nightfall bedrooms for a better night’s sleep and comes in a FastPack Carry Bag, making life easier after a great camping trip to pack away. The Beta is ideal for slightly longer trips and will also appeal to campers seeking a more spacious and comfortable weekend tent.

TBS II Tension Band System – Ensures the tent performs in adverse conditions, especially in strong, changeable winds.

Can be stowed away in calm weather. Patented EP1905927
