Camping Ratgeber:
What is the best way to sleep in a roof tent?
Whether you are camping as a solo traveler, as a couple or with the whole family – rooftop tents are available in different sizes and designs!
Most models, such as the Adventure roof tent or the Skycamp from CAMPWERK, already come with an integrated comfortable mattress.
If you like, you can upgrade this and add a mattress pad or mattress topper for even more comfort and hygiene. Equip your roof tent with a comfortable mattress topper or pad as you wish!
Sleeping bag or blanket for the night?
Should I sleep in a sleeping bag or a blanket in the roof tent?
While a sleeping bag is more suitable for cold temperatures and winter camping, a blanket offers more comfort and legroom in warmer regions.
However, as it is generally warmer in a roof tent than in a normal tent, for example, a blanket can be used either way.

Clothes: What do I wear to sleep?
Now the question arises as to what is best to wear for sleeping in a roof tent.
This definitely depends on the vacation region and the weather.
In any case, less is more when it comes to sleeping bags.
As the body generates the temperature in the sleeping bag, you shouldn’t wrap up too thickly, but wear shorts or functional underwear if possible.
If you sleep under a blanket, it depends on how warm the destination is and how quickly you get cold.
You should bear this in mind when choosing your clothing:
- Wear as little as possible in your sleeping bag
- Short things in warm regions
- Longer things in winter
- To be decided individually according to destination and weather
Whether long-sleeved or short-sleeved in the roof tent ultimately depends on your personal preference!
Additional equipment for more comfort
Last but not least, you can add individual accessories to your roof tent.
Whether you opt for a sleeping bag or a blanket, comfortable pillows are also recommended.
You are free to choose the number and material.
A string of lights, for example, which you can attach to the top of the roof tent, provides an extra dose of coziness.
As it can get very cold in winter, especially at night, we recommend a warm blanket that you can snuggle up with in the roof tent.
You can integrate the following accessories into your roof tent:
- Pillow for sleeping
- Fairy lights for more coziness
- Thermal blanket in winter
- Wall cupboards for tidiness in the tent
A string of lights creates a cozy atmosphere in the roof tent at the campsite in the evening!
