Tipi 600 Ultimate

 1,099

The Tipi 600 Ultimate is the largest tipi tent in the series, measuring 6 meters (19ft 8in) in diameter and offering a massive 28.25m² (306 ft²) of floor space. The steep angle of the canvas and stabilizing guylines make the Tipi the most wind-resistant design for a large canvas tent.

Equipped with a zip in/out bathtub-style groundsheet, it keeps you dry even in standing water. Made of our Classic Canvas (320 gr/m² or 9.5 oz/yd²), this tipi is both breathable and waterproof.

Whether you call it a Tepee, Teepee, or Lavuu, the Tipi is the perfect choice for small groups, luxury glamping, or as a fun festival tent.

Description

Dynamic Conical Shape

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!

Cinchable Walls

Need some extra breeze in the tent for those hot summer days? The Tipi’s guy line system is specially designed to cinch up and provide extra airflow! Simply unzip the floor, release the canvas from its stakes, and pull the guy lines tight to create a ‘floating’ Tipi for maximum ventilation.

Storm Door

The triangle-shaped front door of the Tipi has a single zipper that runs vertically to the floor. Each side of the door zips securely into the groundsheet or can be rolled up and neatly stored with hook and loops when not in use. A built-in mesh door keeps the Tipi breezy and well-ventilated. Designed for winter, the door zipper is protected by a storm flap to prevent ice and snow from accumulating.

Peak Cap

Every Tipi includes a canvas rain cap that is completely removable so a tipi stove chimney can be vented through the top of the tipi. The cap has extra long guy lines that can be used to hold it in place in high winds, or fold it open from the ground for extra ventilation on hot days.

Groundsheet

Our Ultimate groundsheets are durable, thermally welded, 540 gr/m² (or 15.9 oz/yd²) ripstop PVC. Completely water- and vapor-impenetrable, the ‘bathtub style’ floor rises 4 inches high to keep you dry even in standing water. Using a heavy-duty size 10 zipper to attach the canvas to the groundsheet, you can unzip the floor and use the guy lines to cinch up the canvas walls for maximum ventilation. You can remove the groundsheet entirely for transport, storage, cleaning, or to enjoy the grass or sand beneath your feet. A small gap between the two zippers in the back allows an electrical cord to enter the tent without compromising protection from rain and bugs.

Single Spring-Loaded Center Pole

What makes CanvasCamp’s Tipi unique is that it relies entirely on a single heavy-duty center pole and the tensile strength of the canvas staked to the ground. The durable nickel-plated steel pole is 30mm (1.2 inches) in diameter and has internal spring-loaded wires that guide the pole sections together for quick and easy assembly.

Durable Guy Lines and Tensioners

For quick pitching in mild weather, the Tipi can stand just fine without guy lines. When the wind howls, the snow falls, or if you’re camping out for a long time, guy lines are recommended. Our Ultimate series comes with 3mm guy ropes that will need to be tied on before your first pitch. Check out our assembly instructions in the Specifications tab on this page to get a feel for the initial setup process. Plastic tensioners prevent edges from cutting into the guy lines and prolong the life of your tent.

Steel Stakes and Pegs

The Tipi stakes are designed for easy insertion and removal from average earth, like grass or forest floor. The Tipi has three sets of pegs: one set each for the groundsheet, canvas, and guy lines. The stakes for the guy lines are curved like a shovel to securely hold tension in the ground, and have a lip at the top to prevent the guy line from slipping off. The pegs for the floor are round to slip through the grommets on the groundsheet and have a hook-shaped top that holds the floor in place. All standard stakes and pegs measure 22cm (8.6 inches).

Classic Canvas

Our Classic Canvas (320 gr/m² or 9.5 oz/yd²) is the perfect balance of performance and breathability. Our proprietary treatment enhances the natural water resistance of canvas and provides excellent protection for moderate climates and casual use. Repairable and retreatable, a properly maintained Classic Canvas tent can last for years. Double-stitched seams, seam gussets, and double-layer construction at all stress points create a classic and durable tipi tent.

100% Cotton canvas provides natural waterproofing and breathability. Cotton fibers swell when damp, the tight weave prevents rain from penetrating, and the surface tension of moisture drops on the outside combined with the steep angle of the tipi allows water to bead and run off. Moisture held in the air on the inside is still able to escape directly through the fabric, keeping internal humidity low and mitigating condensation.

100% Cotton Canvas

Our Sibley canvas is made exclusively from 100% cotton. Cotton is made from the seed hair of this hardy and drought-tolerant plant. Sustainable, renewable, and one of the most biodegradable fabrics on earth. Our canvas is a soft, natural, earthy beige that glows inside and out with natural or artificial light. CanvasCamp is the only tent manufacturer to carry the official Seal of Cotton®.

Stove Compatibility

The Tipi is compatible with any of our tent stoves. The Frontier Portable Stove has an optional Tipi Sleeve (sold separately) specifically designed for top exiting the flue pipe through the top of a CanvasCamp Tipi. All other stoves can be vented by outfitting the tipi with our modular stove jack system. Proper stove placement is dependent on stove size, tipi size, flue exit style, desired temperature, and the environment you intend to camp in. One size fits all, pre-installed stove jacks fail to provide customers with the level of customization necessary to achieve ideal stove placement and maximum utility. To ensure proper placement and ideal efficiency, CanvasCamp offers modular stove jacks (sold separately) that can be easily installed in any cotton canvas bell tent in just a few minutes.

Note: Not for use with open fire pits. We encourage you to be vigilant about fire safety and are happy to answer any questions or concerns you may have. CanvasCamp cannot be held liable for any damage or injury to persons or property resulting from the use or misuse of fire or flammable materials in or around our tents.
