The Tipi Urban Traveller brings a fresh update to the timeless tipi design. Built with the same durable materials and specifications as our Tipi Traveller, the Urban adds one standout feature: a vertical door. This smart design makes entering and exiting the tent easier while also keeping the doorway—and the inside of your tent—dry, even if it’s raining and the door is open.
Constructed from breathable, water-resistant polycotton canvas, the Tipi Urban ensures comfort in all climates and seasons. The heavy-duty tub-style groundsheet keeps moisture out, while the iconic conical shape naturally sheds wind, rain, and snow for stability in any conditions. With just a single center pole, setup takes only minutes, making it a practical and reliable shelter for both new and experienced campers.
Compact and portable, the Tipi Urban is perfectly suited for 1–4 people. It comfortably fits 2 adults plus luggage or up to 4 youngsters on sleeping mats. Whether you’re heading out for a weekend adventure, setting up a cosy backyard retreat, or camping in unpredictable weather, the Tipi Urban combines tradition, modern comfort, and smart functionality.
Whether you call it a tipi, teepee, tepee, Indian Tent or lavvu, this shelter offers an unbeatable combination of tradition, strength, and modern functionality. Perfect for adventurers who value stability, ease of use, and timeless design.

Final Touches And Features
Exceptionally Storm-Resistant - The cone shape of the tipi, widely embraced by Native Americans of the Great Plains, sheds wind, rain, and snow better than any other tent shape. The single center pole provides unrivaled tensile strength that extends all the way to the ground. A well-pitched Tipi can withstand gale force winds and driving snow!
Stove vent - Every Tipi comes with a fully removable canvas rain cap, allowing a stove chimney to be vented directly through the top. The cap is equipped with extra-long guy lines, which keep it secure in strong winds or let you fold it open from the ground for added ventilation on hot days.
Quick-straps - In good weather, the door can be secured open with handy quick-release fasteners, while the secondary mosquito net door keeps the tent well-ventilated and insect-free.
Zipped-In Tub Groundsheet - The heavy duty groundsheet is made of 100% waterproof PE with rip-stop for durability, offering comfort and strength. Completely water- and vapor-proof, the bathtub-style floor rises 12 cm high to keep you dry even in standing water. A heavy-duty size 10 zipper securely attaches the canvas to the groundsheet, yet allows you to unzip and cinch up the walls with guy lines for maximum ventilation. The groundsheet can also be removed entirely for transport, storage, cleaning, or simply to enjoy the grass or sand beneath your feet.Â
High-Performance Polycotton Canvas - A breathable, long-lasting blend designed for four-season use.
Integrated Weatherproofing - UV resistant, fade resistant, water repellent, and mould & rot resistant. The protective treatment is embedded into the fibers during production, ensuring durability without sacrificing breathability.
100% Waterproof - Even in tropical storm downpours. Whether you’re camping in the jungle, mountains, or coastal climates, you can rely on your Traveller tent to stay dry inside-no matter how hard it rains.
No-See-Um Mesh Windows & Door - Fine mesh keeps insects out while maintaining airflow.Â
Central Pole - The central tent pole is made of nickel-plated steel, and is spring-loaded for easy assembly. A cleverly designed central pole protects the tent and has an eye at the top for attaching lamps or other items.Â
UV-Treated Reflective Guy Ropes - 5 mm polyester ropes with inner strength core and outer protective sheath.Â
Forged Steel Tent Pegs - Suitable for both soft and hard ground conditions.
