Structure, benefits and comfort on the move
Awnings are available for every camper and every roof tent and can be used as required.
You are protected from wind and weather at all times in the waterproof awning and don’t need to start a quick clean-up operation if it starts to rain.
During the day, you can simply leave the tent pitched if necessary so that you can simply use it again after a long, eventful and exhausting day.
As soon as the journey continues, the tent can be easily taken down and stowed away in just a few minutes.
An awning is therefore a must and the perfect companion on any camping vacation to quickly and easily expand your space and always have enough room to move around while remaining flexible and mobile.

Awnings: Protection on the campsite
As it can be very warm on the campsite in the mornings, a fixed awning is a good idea so that the sun doesn’t dazzle, at least when eating and sitting together.
However, the robust protection can usually also keep out rain and wind and also serves as a privacy screen if you want some privacy.
This multifunctional travel companion should definitely be part of your next camping vacation! Read more here:
Parasol and awning
Of course, you are usually out and about during the day on a camping vacation and can occasionally cool off, but the sun can put a spanner in the works for many holidaymakers at breakfast or when sitting together in the evening.
So that you can still start your morning at the campsite relaxed and end your evening in comfort, we recommend using parasols or sails in addition to a fixed awning, which can be set up in front of your tent or caravan.
