Vango Storm Shelters

The Vango Storm ShelterI was watching a program the other day on National Geographic about mountaineers and saw these bright orange shelters used by the mountain rescue teams, they are Vango Storm Shelters.

These handy bits of kit would be useful for anyone out hiking who may find themselves left out in the open with no shelter when a storm or some bad weather catches you out. The Vango storm shelters are used by rescue teams, hiking clubs and walking clubs and they can be used for quite an array of different things.

If you want to get out of the cold or rain for a quick break then the vango storm shelter is ideal to get out and use. Within the shelter you have a dry and warm area where you would be able to say eat a meal, take a break from walking or plan your routes.

The vango storm shelter comes in various models as shown below:

  • Vango storm shelter 200 (2 person capacity)
  • Vango storm shelter 400 (4 person capacity)
  • Vango storm shelter 800 (8 person capacity)
