Walkabout™ 62 Queen size Roof Top Tent with Light Suppression Technology
The Walkabout™ 62 Roof Top Tent by 23Zero sleeps 3+ people on a 62” wide Queen Size Bed. The Walkabout 62 is a year round tent, allowing you to live the roof top tent lifestyle any time of year, in any climate. Our tents are built with a durable and waterproof polycotton material that comes equipped with our revolutionary Light Suppression Technology®.
What Is Light Suppression Technology?
No longer do you have to be jolted awake early in the morning, sweating and squinting from the sun hitting your tent hours before you’re ready to wake up. Our LST fabric keeps the inside of the tent pitch black, even on the brightest mornings or hottest afternoons, and reduces the summer temperature inside the tent by 20%. 23Zero tents give you the freedom to choose to sleep in after a long day, allowing you to wake up refreshed and ready for a day of adventure in the outdoors.

Description
The 3 + person Walkabout™ 62 is a top of the line Roof Top Tent built from high quality materials that are made to last for years. This is proven with our 2 year warranty on all tents.
The Walkabout™ series tents are easy to mount and set up while camping. The base is constructed with an alloy frame and all metal moving parts, reducing weight without sacrificing strength and durability. The Walkabout roof top tent comes with a 3” Thick Sleep Comfort Rebound Mattress providing you with an incredibly comfortable sleep wherever your travels take you. The insulation foam bonded into base also helps to reduce condensation and insulate the tent from the cold.
The 280GSM Ripstop Poly cotton Canvas with Light Suppression Technology® blocks over 90% of sunlight so you can enjoy a great night’s sleep and wake when you decide – not as soon as the sun rises. The material also keeps the tent up to 20% cooler, providing you with a cool oasis for midday relaxation on a hot afternoon.
The extension over the telescoping ladder keeps you covered when exiting the tent while still leaving room for the optional annex. The extension hoop is attached to the tent and utilizes a lever lock to adjust and attach to the snow pole to keep tension with minimal pooling, even in heavy rain.
The attention to detail is what really makes a difference, with features such as reinforced stitching or “bar tacks” at key points such as the fly attachment points and the double layer window toggles. The attachments that go into the seam joints are the same waterproof material as the tent body keeping the tent fully waterproof and eliminating any water ingress points.
The hinge point outer cover has been enlarged and reinforced and an internal cover added as well to keep out the weather and bugs. The front and rear doors that cover the zipper are weighted to reduce them flapping about when unzipped. Select models offer you a choice of annex height to match your vehicle’s mounting position. You can even view the cosmos in all its glory by unclipping the rain fly and staring through the sky view windows before drifting off to sleep.

Jeanne Bolz –
We’ve owned our 23ZERO Walkabout 62 (Bundaberg) tent for a month and used it in both Utah campgrounds and the Colorado backcountry. The tent is rugged and durable, and easy to set up; we have the tent ready more quickly than we can put up a traditional tent. The bed’s 3″ foam cushion is extremely comfortable, and it could be the fresh air or our exhaustion from hiking, but we swear the bed is more comfortable than our bed at home. We are able to leave our sleeping bags inside so our beds are practically pre-made when we pop open the tent. The small details make this tent exceptional – small mesh screens to keep the bugs out, pockets inside for small gear, and shoe bags to hang outside the tent. The tent folds up easily with cords on the inside that help pull the tent together. We did some 4WD roads (such as Ophir Pass from Silverton to Telluride CO) and, while it’s a good idea to test out and be cognizant of the additional height on the vehicle, the tent didn’t in any way impede our 4W-driving.
