DARCHE RIDGEBACK HIGHRIZE ROOF TOP TENT 1250
Take your camping adventures to new heights—literally—with the Ridgeback HighRize, DARCHE’s most spacious and advanced hard shell roof top tent yet. Building on the rugged reliability and premium build quality of the Ridgeback series, the HighRize delivers more internal room without compromising on convenience, durability, or style.
Housed in a sleek aluminium shell, the Ridgeback HighRize stands out with its refined engineering and aerodynamic profile, which remains thinner than most soft shell tents even while offering significantly more headroom and interior space. Whether you’re planning a quick overnight stop or an extended off-road expedition, the HighRize is designed to give you a comfortable, hassle-free setup every time.
German-engineered Stabilus gas struts make opening and closing effortless, allowing you to set up camp in seconds. Inside, you’re treated to panoramic views through six windows, three full-size entry points, and a zippered sky view. The interior is fitted with a plush 55mm memory foam mattress featuring a removable cover and water-resistant base, along with a 10mm high rebound anti-condensation mat to ensure maximum comfort and airflow during the night.
The HighRize also includes internal USB-powered LED lighting, laboratory tested to meet all Electromagnetic Compatibility and User Safety standards, giving you safe and functional illumination after dark. A removable fly provides protection from sun and rain, while high-profile automotive rubber weather seals, taped seams, and internal sealing ensure all-weather durability you can count on. The tent body itself is constructed from 280gsm Ripstop Recycled Polyester Oxford fabric, boasting a 3000mm waterhead rating to keep you dry and secure through even the heaviest downpours.
With mounting rails included to suit most commercially available flat roof rack and roof rail systems, and optional accessories like roof rails and awning brackets available separately, the Ridgeback HighRize is ready to be your ultimate rooftop basecamp. Just be sure to confirm your vehicle and rack system’s weight ratings before installation, and we always recommend having the tent professionally fitted by your local 4WD centre or DARCHE retailer.
When it comes to space, build quality, and comfort, the Ridgeback HighRize doesn’t just raise the bar—it raises your entire camping experience.
