The Vango Trek Pro 5 Standard Sleeping Mat is a self-inflating mat built for year-round camping. It measures 183cm x 51cm with a 5cm foam thickness, weighing 1.1kg and packing down to a compact 25 x 18cm cylinder. The TrekEco® fabric is a 75D ripstop recycled polyester, so it's durable enough for rough conditions while keeping your environmental footprint lower.

Is the Vango Trek Pro 5 warm enough for winter camping?


The Vango Trek Pro 5 has an R-Value of 5.7, which puts it firmly in four-season territory. That's above the R-4 threshold recommended for cold and winter conditions, making it suitable for camping in sub-zero temperatures. At 1.1kg and packing to 25 x 18cm, it delivers that warmth without excessive bulk.

The Core Cutting Design is what sets this mat apart from a standard self-inflating pad. By cutting strategic channels through the foam, Vango reduces weight and pack size without affecting insulation performance. The result is a mat that sits in a sweet spot between a lightweight backpacking mat and a luxurious car camping pad. EasyGrip silicone embossing on the top surface keeps your sleeping bag in place through the night, which is a small detail that makes a noticeable difference.

This mat is recommended by the Duke of Edinburgh Award Scheme, which tells you something about its reliability on multi-day expeditions. The Fast-Flow valve opens and closes with a simple push, and a twist locks it in place so there's no fiddling around in the dark. A repair kit is included in the box, and all materials are REACH approved. The fast-pack carry bag makes rolling and packing the mat at the end of a trip considerably easier than wrestling with a standard stuff sack.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does R-Value 5.7 mean on the Vango Trek Pro 5?
R-Value measures thermal resistance, the higher the number the better the insulation from cold ground. An R-Value of 5.7 on the Vango Trek Pro 5 exceeds the R-4 threshold recommended for cold and winter camping, placing it in four-season territory. It's suitable for use in sub-zero temperatures, making it appropriate for year-round expeditions including winter wild camping in the UK.
How does the Vango Trek Pro 5 self-inflate?
The Vango Trek Pro 5 uses open-cell foam inside the mat. When you unroll it and open the Fast-Flow valve, the foam expands and draws air in automatically. Full self-inflation takes a few minutes. You top up by blowing a small amount of air in through the valve, then push the valve to close and twist to lock. To deflate, open the valve, roll from the foot end tightly, then close the valve before placing it in the carry bag.
What is Vango's Core Cutting Design?
Core Cutting is Vango's process of cutting strategic channels and sections through the internal foam of the sleeping mat. Removing foam in specific areas reduces the overall weight and pack size of the mat without affecting its insulation properties or sleeping comfort. The Trek Pro 5 packs down to 25 x 18cm and weighs 1.1kg despite its 5cm thickness, a direct result of this design approach.
What is TrekEco® fabric and why does it matter?
TrekEco® is Vango's 75D ripstop fabric made from recycled polyester. Using recycled materials reduces the carbon footprint and resource consumption involved in manufacturing the mat. The 75D weight gives the fabric good abrasion resistance for use on rough ground, and the ripstop construction means small tears or snags don't spread. It meets REACH standards, the European regulation governing chemicals in materials used in consumer products.
Is the Vango Trek Pro 5 suitable for Duke of Edinburgh expeditions?
Yes, the Vango Trek Pro 5 Standard is a DofE recommended product. The Duke of Edinburgh Award Scheme assesses gear for suitability across criteria including weight, pack size, durability and warmth. At 1.1kg with a pack size of 25 x 18cm and an R-Value of 5.7, the Trek Pro 5 meets those requirements for multi-night expeditions. The included repair kit also adds practical reassurance for remote use.
How does the Vango Trek Pro 5 compare to the Trek Pro 3?
The main differences are thickness and insulation. The Trek Pro 3 is 3cm thick with an R-Value of 4.0, while the Trek Pro 5 is 5cm thick with an R-Value of 5.7. Both share the same 183cm x 51cm dimensions and Core Cutting Design, but the Trek Pro 5 is heavier at 1.1kg versus 0.85kg for the Trek Pro 3. The Trek Pro 5 is the better choice for winter camping or anyone prioritising sleeping comfort over weight savings.
