Vinkings Tent

Authentic, comfortable and practical

Our Viking tent is a real bestseller because few medieval tents come closer to true historical authenticity. It is reconstructed based on a find from the medieval Gokstad ship — not fantasy, but actual historical reality. The Viking golden age spans the 8th to 11th centuries, so this tent fits perfectly with all role-playing games and tournaments set in that era. It is also straightforward and quick to set up.

Living like Olaf, Erik and Knut

When travelling, Vikings needed sturdy and practical shelters with minimal weight — exactly what this tent provides. With a height of 2 metres and a length of 3 metres, it offers historical authenticity combined with real-world usability. The canvas is impregnated and protected against moisture and mould.

Flexible expansion options

You can customise your Viking tent with several add-ons — for example, add a groundsheet or an extension module to turn it into a market stall. Perfect for a fully equipped Viking weekend.

Important notes

Cotton is a natural material, so size tolerances of 3–5% may occur.
Poles: Optional pole sets (or included poles depending on the model) may need to be shortened due to material tolerances. Poles are always adjusted to fit the tent — never the tent to the poles.
Tensioning: Guy ropes must retain slight slack. Over-tightening can damage the tent — such damage is not covered by warranty.
