rooftop tent on mountain placed in sleeping bag

What should you bring on your trip with a rooftop tent? Here we have gathered a packing list with equipment and gear that can be useful and that makes your camping more enjoyable.

One of the many advantages of camping with a rooftop tent is that you have a whole car to fill with stuff. However, it is of course good if the things do not take up too much space. The gear we recommend below is what we ourselves often bring along with the rooftop tent. Then it is obviously up to each individual – you absolutely do not need all the stuff. With a lighter and a seat pad, you can get far.
