DARCHE RIDGEBACK HIGHRIZE ROOF TOP TENT 1550
Take your camping adventures to the next level—literally—with the Ridgeback HighRize roof top tent. Built on the foundation of the award-winning Ridgeback series, the HighRize takes everything you love and adds even more space to sleep, relax, and enjoy the outdoors in comfort.
This top-of-the-line hard shell roof top tent delivers the premium engineering and durable construction you expect from DARCHE—all housed in a sleek, low-profile aluminium shell. The Ridgeback HighRize is DARCHE’s largest hard shell tent, yet it still packs down slimmer than many soft shell models, making it a practical choice for both weekend warriors and serious off-road adventurers.
Setup is effortless thanks to German-engineered Stabilus gas struts, which provide smooth, reliable opening and closing every time. Inside, six windows surround the interior, offering near-panoramic views and excellent airflow. A plush 55mm memory foam mattress with a removable, water-resistant cover and a 10mm high rebound anti-condensation mat ensures a restful, dry, and supportive night’s sleep no matter where you set up camp.
The interior is also fitted with integrated USB-powered LED lighting, laboratory tested for compliance with Electromagnetic Compatibility and User Safety standards, giving you safe and efficient lighting after dark. With three full-size entry points and flexible ladder mounting options, access is easy and adaptable to your setup. The removable fly provides extra protection from sun and rain, enhancing comfort during unpredictable weather.
Constructed from premium 280gsm Ripstop Recycled Polyester Oxford, the Ridgeback HighRize features a 3000mm waterhead rating, reinforced seams, and high-profile automotive rubber weather seals, giving you dependable all-weather performance. When the conditions turn, you can trust the Ridgeback HighRize to keep you dry and comfortable.
Additional accessories such as roof rails and awning bracket kits (sold separately) expand your setup capabilities, while the included mounting rails are compatible with most flat roof racks or rail systems. Always verify your vehicle and roof rack weight ratings before installation. For best results and safety, we recommend professional installation through your local 4WD centre or authorised DARCHE retailer.
With its generous space, premium materials, and rugged build, the Ridgeback HighRize doesn’t just raise the roof—it redefines what’s possible in rooftop camping.
