Walkabout 56 2.0 Soft Shell Rooftop Tent
Walkabout 56 2.0 Soft Shell Rooftop Tent
The Walkabout 56 2.0 is a soft shell rooftop tent built for two. It opens to a 56 by 96 inch full-size floor with 44 inches of interior height, and folds down to a 57 by 48 by 14 inch closed profile that mounts to any crossbar-style rack. The shell is ECO13B ripstop canvas with Light Suppression Technology, so the inside stays darker and cooler than a standard poly tent. A 3-inch rebound foam mattress sits on a waterproof base, which means you skip the separate anti-condensation mat.
The 56 is the narrowest tent in the Walkabout line. That is the point. It is the size that fits a couple or a solo traveler on a mid-size SUV or a smaller rig that cannot carry the wider 62, 72, or 87 models. Closed, it leaves rack room beside it for a slim cargo box or an awning. Setup runs 2 to 5 minutes once you have the routine, which is slower than a clamshell but gives you nearly double the floor space. It is rated 4-season and accepts up to 3-inch ducting for a diesel heater or cooler.
This bundle includes the boot bag and gear loft on top of the standard kit: transit cover, rain fly, sky window, ultra-fine insect mesh, telescoping ladder, and mounting hardware. The boot bag hangs off the ladder so muddy boots stay outside the tent.

How long does setup take?
This is a fold-out soft shell, so plan on 2 to 5 minutes once you have done it a few times. That is slower than a clamshell hardshell, but you get nearly double the open floor space in return.
Will it fit my vehicle and rack?
It mounts to any crossbar-style rack rated for the load. The tent weighs about 130 lb closed and packs to a 57 by 48 inch footprint. Check both your rack's dynamic load limit and your vehicle's roof load limit before mounting.
Is it really 4-season, and how does it handle condensation?
The ECO13B canvas is rated for 4-season use. The 3-inch mattress has a waterproof base, so you do not need a separate anti-condensation mat. The LST canvas and large windows help cross-flow ventilation.
How many people does it sleep?
Two adults, on a full-size 56 by 96 inch floor.
What is the heater port for?
It accepts up to 3 inches of ducting, so you can run a diesel heater or a cooling unit into the tent.
What comes in this bundle?
The tent, boot bag, gear loft, transit cover, rain fly, sky window, ultra-fine insect mesh, telescoping ladder, and mounting hardware.
How do I keep the canvas from mildewing?
Pack it dry. If you have to fold it wet, set it back up to air out within a day or two so the canvas does not hold moisture.
