  Product Description
The Vango Helvellyn 300 Tent in Pamir Green suits backpackers and wild campers who need a lightweight shelter for rough terrain. Its semi-geodesic structure uses PowerLite alloy poles for stability without extra weight. The 3.3kg trail weight packs down to 46 x 17cm, making it easy to carry on long hikes.

Is the Vango Helvellyn 300 good for Duke of Edinburgh expeditions?


Yes, this DofE recommended tent pitches in 10 minutes with all-in-one setup, where the inner stays clipped to the flysheet. The 3000mm HH Protex flysheet and 6000mm groundsheet handle rain and wind to EN ISO 5912 standards. Colour-coded poles and reflective guylines speed up use in low light.

The Gothic arch design sheds water and snow while side vents and mesh doors control airflow to cut condensation. A bathtub groundsheet rises 10cm to block splashes, and the porch stores gear dry. Inner pockets keep small items handy.

O-shaped doors open one-handed, and high-grip adjusters hold tension in gales. Fully taped seams and fire-retardant fabrics meet safety norms. Aluminium pegs secure it firmly.

Features at a Glance
Hydrostatic Head (mm)3000The hydrostatic head of a fabric indicates how well it can keep water out and how waterproof it is. The higher the number, the better! A tent needs to have at least 1000mm HH for light showers, heavy rain and driving wind will put more pressure on the fabric and would therefore require a higher HH of 2000mm. Anything higher than this figure means it can keep out water being pushed through by someone leaning against it for example.
MaterialPolyesterMost tents are made from different denier polyester, which is a lightweight, very waterproof material. Polycotton is a heavier fabric, that breathes well allowing campers to stay cooler in sunnier climates. It is also very good at reducting condensation inside the tent.
Number of Bedrooms1This is the number of sectioned off bedrooms that are included in this tent. The standard industry allowance is 60cm per person, though larger or premium tents often provide more space.
Persons3Tent berth indicates how many people your tent can accommodate for sleeping. The industry standard allocates about 60cm of width per occupant, though exact dimensions can vary by manufacturer. If you prefer extra elbow room, you may want a tent berth larger than your headcount. Many campers size up by one or two berths to improve comfort on longer trips.
Pole constructionPowerLite Alloy PolesThis is whether the poles are inflatable (air) or rigid (e.g - fibreglass / steel or aluminium).
Weight (kg)3.30This is the weight of the tent in kg.
