What does the water column mean?

The water column indicates how waterproof a tent is. The higher the water column, the more resistant the tent is to penetrating moisture.

When is a tent waterproof?

According to the standard, a tent is considered waterproof from a water column of 1,500 mm. A distinction is made between the water column of the tent wall and the tent floor.

What helps against heat in a tent?

To keep your tent cool, you should make sure that your tent is in the shade during the midday sun. Good air circulation is essential when camping in summer - it's best to have windows or doors opposite each other. Our tents with darkened sleeping cabins also help to keep the tent cool. You can find more tips in our blog post on "Cooling your tent in summer".

How do I store the tent correctly?

Clean the tent and waterproof it if necessary before storing it for the winter. Also make sure that the tent is completely dry. To protect the tent fabric, ideally store the pegs, nails and poles separately. Store the tent in a dry, cool place with good ventilation.

When/how often to waterproof the tent?

How often you waterproof your tent depends on how often you use it and where you pitch it. However, we recommend waterproofing your tent at least every three months or before storing it. If you use cleaning agents, you should also waterproof your tent afterwards. You can find more information on cleaning, storage and waterproofing in our related blog post .

What is the vestibule in a tent?

The vestibule is a kind of anteroom outside the main tent. This area is covered, but usually not completely enclosed. For example, you can store equipment here that you want to protect but don't want to store directly in the tent. Depending on the type of tent, the vestibule may be larger or smaller.

How do I avoid condensation in the tent?

To avoid condensation in the tent, check in advance whether the ground is dry - otherwise moisture can form in the tent. Good ventilation is also very important. It is best if ventilation openings are opposite each other so that the air can circulate optimally. Wet clothing also contributes to condensation forming - so it is best to dry it outside during the day. "

Can a tent go in the washing machine or tumble dryer?

Never put the tent in the washing machine or tumble dryer! Detergents, softeners and heat attack the coating of the tent fabric and encourage mould. Spinning also puts a lot of strain on the material, while zips can damage the delicate tent fabric. This results in tears or loose seams that make the tent leaky.

How big should the tent be?

In addition to the living space that is shared, you should also pay attention to the cabins. The number of sleeping cabins and their location play a role here. Sleeping cabins separated by the living area or cabins with a flexible partition wall provide more privacy. As luggage also needs to be stored, you should also take this into account when choosing a camping tent. This can either be stored in the living area, an additional sleeping cabin or in the vestibule.

How do I set up the tent correctly?

In our blog you will find a blog post on the subject of tent pitching with the most important tips on how best to pitch your tent for your next camping holiday.

The guy ropes make the tent storm and weatherproof. This means that your tent is stable in different weather conditions and is ideally aligned.

How do I clean the tent?

For light soiling, you should only use clear water and a soft sponge to protect the tent material and the waterproofing. For more stubborn stains, you should use mild cleaning agents. Just note that you may then have to waterproof your tent again.

What does the addition "Protect" mean?

Our tents with the addition "Protect" all have a sewn-in groundsheet. This means that the tent floor and walls are joined together.

What is the advantage of a sewn-in groundsheet?

A tent with a sewn-in groundsheet is particularly suitable for harsh, colder and wetter regions. The groundsheet protects against wind and ground moisture, but also against dirt and crawling animals.

Chic design

In a discreet light grey colour and with large panoramic windows, the Skandika Falkenberg is a stylish tent that can be proudly displayed both on the campsite and on the festival site.

Large panoramic windows

The special feature of this tent is the bright, light-flooded interior, which creates a friendly, inviting atmosphere. Large panoramic windows let in plenty of light during the day and at the same time invite you to pause for a moment and simply enjoy the view.

Two entrances

Two entrances are extremely practical and contribute to good air circulation inside the tent. In combination with a mosquito net-covered window opposite the side door, they ensure a constant supply of fresh air protected from the weather, regardless of which way the wind is blowing.

Large canopy

However, the clever canopy is best used as a sunshade and provides pleasant shade over a large area: equally perfect for al fresco dining and cosy afternoons spent reading. When not in use, the canopy can be rolled up and fixed over the door.

Absolutely weatherproof

If the weather doesn't play ball, there is still plenty of space inside for a pleasant stay and for storing luggage and furniture. The strong tent material is absolutely weatherproof, the tent poles are extremely stable and the firmly sewn-in groundsheet prevents draughts or rain from entering the tent from below.

Separable sleeping cabin

The dark sleeping cabin is located at the back of the tent and offers space for up to 6 people. It can be used as one large room or, if required, can be divided into two completely separate areas by a zip-off partition wall - for 2 and 4 people respectively.

Many practical details

Both doors and cabin entrances are fitted with mosquito netting to keep annoying insects out even when the entrances are open. There are practical organiser pockets inside the tent, a hook for hanging a camping lantern and all windows can be darkened if required.

Simple pitching

Colour-coded poles make it much easier to pitch the tent quickly, which can be done in just 20 minutes, and the sturdy carry bag is perfect for transport and neat storage. The weather-protected cable opening is another extra feature of this well-designed tent.

Versatile use

Whether with 6 family members or friends, or with fewer people and more space, the Falkenberg 6 is always a good choice with its clever combination options and looks great everywhere in its discreetly chic colour combination. Lots of light and air for a thoroughly refreshing camping holiday for young and old!
