Design details
What is the inner tent height and surface area of the living area?
The 5 m² living area of the ARPENAZ 5.2 FRESH& BLACK tent is 2 m high.
This tent includes several accessories:
- A circular groundsheet that can be lifted up and put at the entrance in case of rain;
- A transparent window with shutter;
- An insect-proof window with a shutter;
- Storage pockets in the bedrooms and living room.
How wide is this tent’s sleeping area?
The large bedroom in the ARPENAZ 5.2 FRESH & BLACK camping tent is designed to accommodate up to three 70 cm-wide mattresses.
The small bedroom is designed to fit up to two 70 cm-wide mattresses.
The partition wall between the two bedrooms can be removed to form a large five-person bedroom.
How do I set up and take down my tent?
All-in-one frame structure with pre-assembled bedrooms and flysheet.
The three coloured poles are to be inserted into their respective sleeves. Then make taut by positioning the poles in the black end pieces located below the flysheet. Drive in the V-shaped pegs at the two back corners, then pull the tent forwards. Then drive in the pegs at the two front corners.
We recommend that 2 people pitch the tent.
Floor surface area with guy ropes: 27m2
Fresh & Black technology
Cooler and darker for better sleep!
Fresh & Black is a technology patented by Decathlon that allows us to reflect the sun's rays and insulate from the light thanks to specific materials.
To get the most out of this technology, don't forget to ventilate your tent at night!
How does air circulate inside this tent?
The ventilated flysheet over the living room lets you ventilate and limit condensation inside your tent. In each room: a high ventilation flap on the outside and a large low ventilation hatch on the inside. The living room and bedrooms are equipped with mosquito nets.
Is this tent fully waterproof?
To check that it is waterproof, the tent was placed for three hours under a 200L shower of water per hour, equivalent to a tropical shower of 200mm per hour.
The flysheet is made from 2,000mm Schmerber PU coated polyester and all seams are sealed with thermobonded tape.
Is this tent windproof?
We test all our tents in a wind tunnel on a turntable. The aim is to expose each side of our tent to the same wind intensity.
Properly pitched, with the guy ropes deployed, this tent remains habitable in wind speed 6, measured at around 50 km/h.
What are the tent’s poles and pegs like?
Poles - All our poles are made from fibreglass and undergo double quality checks. This guarantees some of the best resistance against breakage.
Tent pegs - All our pegs are made of steel and have a diameter of 6mm.
How to care for your tent
Our camping tents have been designed for occasional outdoor use (4 weeks per year). These products are not classified as “garden furniture” and aren’t designed to be left outdoors permanently. Continuous exposure to UV rays can damage the fabric section. To ensure the optimal lifespan of your tent, it’s important to store it in a dry place when not in use.
