  Product Description
The Vango Trek Pro 3 Quad is a self-inflating sleeping mat designed for year-round camping and trekking. This quad-shaped version measures 183cm x 60cm x 3cm, providing a wider rectangular sleeping surface compared to tapered mummy-style mats. It weighs 1.05kg and carries Duke of Edinburgh Award recommended status, making it a practical choice for youth expeditions as well as general backpacking. The mat uses TrekEco fabric, a 75D recycled polyester ripstop that reduces environmental impact while maintaining durability for repeated use.

What R-value do you need for 4-season camping in the UK?


An R-value of 4.0 or higher provides sufficient insulation for year-round camping, including cold winter ground conditions. The Trek Pro 3 Quad meets this threshold with its R-value of 4.0, blocking heat transfer to the ground even when temperatures drop below freezing. This rating means the mat works effectively as part of a sleep system with your sleeping bag through spring, summer, autumn and winter expeditions.

The Core Cutting foam design removes material from specific areas of the foam core to reduce weight and pack size without compromising the insulation where your body makes contact with the mat. This construction technique maintains the R-value of 4.0 while keeping the overall weight manageable for backpacking. The top surface features EasyGrip silicone embossing to prevent you sliding off during the night, addressing a common complaint with smooth-topped mats. A Fast-Flow valve simplifies inflation and deflation, with a push-to-open and push-to-close mechanism that can be twisted to lock. The mat comes with a fast-pack carry bag that has extra space for easier packing at camp, plus a repair kit for field fixes if you encounter a puncture. All materials meet European REACH safety standards.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does R-value 4.0 mean for a sleeping mat?
R-value measures thermal resistance, indicating how effectively a sleeping mat prevents heat loss to the ground. An R-value of 4.0 provides insulation suitable for 4-season camping, including cold weather conditions where ground temperatures drop below freezing. Higher R-values indicate better insulation. For comparison, R-values of 1-2 are suitable for summer camping only, while 4.0 and above covers year-round UK conditions.
What is the difference between the Trek Pro 3 Quad and Trek Pro 3 Standard?
The Trek Pro 3 Quad has a rectangular shape measuring 60cm wide, providing a larger sleeping surface area. The Standard version has a tapered mummy shape that reduces width at the feet to save weight and pack size. The Quad shape suits sleepers who move around at night or prefer more space, while the Standard is lighter for backpacking where every gram counts. Both share the same R-value of 4.0 and Core Cutting foam technology.
Is the Vango Trek Pro 3 Quad suitable for Duke of Edinburgh expeditions?
Yes, the Trek Pro 3 Quad carries official DofE recommended status. It has been tested by Duke of Edinburgh Award teams and meets the requirements for Bronze, Silver and Gold level expeditions. The mat provides adequate insulation for UK expedition conditions, packs down to a manageable size for rucksack transport, and weighs 1.05kg which is practical for multi-day trekking.
How does a self-inflating mat work?
Self-inflating mats contain open-cell foam inside an airtight shell. When you open the valve, the compressed foam naturally expands and draws air into the mat. This process takes a few minutes. You can then add a few breaths of air to reach your preferred firmness before closing the valve. The foam provides insulation while the trapped air adds cushioning. To pack away, open the valve and roll the mat from the opposite end to expel the air.
What is TrekEco fabric?
TrekEco is Vango's recycled polyester fabric used on the Trek Pro range of sleeping mats. It uses 75D ripstop construction made from recycled materials, reducing environmental impact compared to virgin polyester production. The fabric maintains the durability and water resistance required for camping use while lowering the product's overall carbon footprint.
What does Core Cutting foam design do?
Core Cutting is Vango's foam construction technique that removes material from specific areas of the foam core where full thickness is not required for insulation or support. This reduces overall weight and packed volume while maintaining the R-value and comfort in the areas where your body contacts the mat. The result is a lighter, more compact mat that still provides effective insulation for 4-season camping.
What is the EasyGrip surface on the Trek Pro 3 Quad?
EasyGrip is a silicone print pattern applied to the top surface of the mat. It creates friction between the mat and your sleeping bag, reducing the likelihood of sliding off the mat during the night. This is particularly useful for side sleepers or anyone who moves around while sleeping, and addresses a common issue with smooth-topped self-inflating mats.
What are REACH approved materials?
REACH is the European Union regulation for Registration, Evaluation, Authorisation and Restriction of Chemicals. Materials that meet REACH standards have been tested to ensure they do not contain harmful substances above permitted levels. The Trek Pro 3 Quad uses REACH approved materials throughout, providing reassurance about product safety for prolonged skin contact during sleeping.
