Small rooftop tents – Are you planning a relaxing camping vacation with your partner and a rooftop tent?
Or maybe you’re even thinking about a trip on your own?
Then a small roof tent on your car will do just fine!
Here you can find out about the advantages of small rooftop tents and recommended models that are as small as possible and therefore ideal for solo travelers, a vacation as a couple or, for example, for mounting on a Mini.
You can also take a look at a suitable model directly in the store: Skycamp Mini.

Small roof tent: you have these advantages
Even though a small roof tent may offer a little less space inside, you still have some advantages.
These include:
Compactness and maneuverability
Compared to larger roof tents, small roof tents are more compact and take up less space on the roof of a vehicle.
This reduces fuel consumption while driving.
In addition, smaller roof tents often offer better maneuverability when driving, as they create less wind resistance and make the vehicle less bulky.
This can be particularly advantageous on unpaved roads or in tight spaces.
Lightweight and flexible
Small roof tents are generally lighter than larger models.
This is particularly advantageous for smaller vehicles or those with a limited roof load capacity.
In addition, small roof tent models can be mounted on almost any vehicle roof, including a small car.
So if you are traveling alone or as a couple and maybe even with a Mini, a small roof tent is an advantage.
Quick assembly and dismantling
Due to their smaller size, small roof tents can usually be set up and taken down more quickly.
This saves time and makes the camping process easier, especially if you want to spend the night in different places.

Small but enough space in the Adventure roof tent
Our favorite for a couple’s vacation is the Adventure roof tent.
This “space miracle” is super small on the car roof and can hardly be felt when folded up with its small pack size, but once set up it offers enough space for 2 people!
So if you are looking for a small roof tent, but at the same time want enough space to spread out, the Adventure is highly recommended.
In just a few minutes, it can be folded out into an amazingly comfortable living area.
This area is equipped with a comfortable, high-quality mattress, which you can easily reach via the integrated ladder.
A very special highlight, however, are definitely the panoramic windows on the tent roof, through which you can gaze at the starry sky deep into the night.
