Tent VAUDE Allround Chapel XT for 3 persons, polyester/PU fly and floor, polyamide inner, 215×480 cm, height 170 cm

The VAUDE Allround Chapel XT for 3 persons is a dome-style camping tent designed to offer sleeping space for three people with practical weather protection and compact transportability. The tent combines a polyamide inner tent with a polyester outer fly and floor that have a polyurethane coating, delivering a balance of weight, durability and water resistance. With external dimensions of 215×480 cm and an inner peak height of 170 cm, the design includes a roomy vestibule area with standing height for convenient entry and storage. The tent uses a combined pitching system so the inner tent stays dry during setup and features materials certified to the Global Recycled Standard as well as an Eco Finish water-repellent treatment free of harmful fluorocarbons.

Advantages

The combined inner-and-outer pitching (doublepitching) simplifies setup and prevents the inner tent from getting wet in rain or windy conditions. Construction and frame geometry are optimized for outdoor use, offering stable internal space and easy pole insertion aided by color markings and plastic fittings. The outer fabric and floor are made from recycled polyester yarn, reducing environmental impact while retaining robustness; the Eco Finish provides water and stain resistance without PFCs. Ventilation options, including mesh windows and adjustable vents, support good airflow; practical details include high-quality aluminum poles, a clothesline and inner pockets.

Suitable for

• Family or group camping trips for up to three people
• Multi-day outdoor excursions in areas with frequent precipitation
• Cycling or hiking tours needing quick, protected storage in the vestibule
• Camping where compact packed size and relatively low weight are important

How to use

Unpack the tent and lay out the fly and inner tent on a flat, cleared surface. Follow the color markings to assemble the DAC aluminum pole structure and insert poles into the corresponding fittings; the plastic parts assist in accurate pole placement. Raise the fly and inner tent together using the combined pitching method so the inner tent remains dry in wet conditions. Anchor the tent with the supplied pegs and guy lines and tension them using the integrated guyline collector and clamp. Adjust ventilation via mesh windows, vents and the roll-up back wall depending on weather and temperature. Use the vestibule for storing gear or protected entry and make use of the inner pockets and clothesline for small items and drying.

Usage recommendations

To maintain the Eco Finish water repellency, perform regular aftercare by cleaning and reapplying appropriate PFC-free impregnation products as needed. Pitch the tent on level ground and avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight when stored to help preserve fabric coatings. When packing, ensure the tent is dry to prevent mildew and store in a ventilated, cool place. The combined pitching system is particularly useful in rainy conditions to keep the inner area dry during setup.
