Tuff Stuff Alpine 51" Roof Top Tent – Versatility Meets Rugged Luxury

Ready to elevate your camping game—literally? The Tuff Stuff Alpine 51” Roof Top Tent is built for adventurers who crave durability, convenience, and year-round comfort. Whether you're chasing sunsets in the desert or waking up to snow-capped peaks, the Alpine is your go-to mobile basecamp for 4-season exploration.

This hard shell rooftop tent offers a unique dual-action roof—deploy it as a wedge for quick solo setup, or pop both ends for a spacious interior and 360-degree panoramic views. Either way, one person can fully set it up in under a minute. Now that’s how you maximize adventure time.


Why the Alpine 51” Is Your All-Season Adventure Ally

✅ Built for 4-Season Overlanding
Constructed from heavy-duty, waterproof poly/cotton ripstop fabric, the Alpine boasts superior tear resistance, blackout-coated interiors for full darkness, and EPA-certified antibacterial protection. Rain, snow, or blazing sun—you’re covered in comfort.

✅ Dual Roof Modes: Wedge or Full Pop-Up
Need a low-profile overnight crash pad? Go wedge. Want to stargaze or catch the breeze? Pop it up fully. The German-engineered gas struts make both options a breeze—literally.

✅ Sleep Like Royalty, Anywhere
With a 2.75" memory foam mattress and blackout interior, you'll sleep like a rock—even if you're parked on one. Plus, with 3 access points, entry is easy no matter how your rig is built.

✅ Ultra-Slim, Gear-Ready Shell
At under 8 inches tall when closed (excluding rack), the aluminum shell is aerodynamic and includes a built-in roof rack for kayaks, bikes, or extra gear. Take more, pack smarter.

✅ Mount Anything, Anywhere
Four exterior T-slot rails let you attach awnings, showers, lights, water tanks, or whatever your setup needs. Compatible with standard M8 hardware, so there’s no fuss.

High quality tent

I was a little hesitant at first because of the price but i was lucky enough to grab this on sale. Extremely high quality and great looking tent. Mounted it with a friend and opened it up in the driveway, cant wait to test it out in a few weeks at the family camping trip!
